Unique Engagement Photo Locations in Savannah
‘Tis the season to put a ring on it!
Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and love is in the air. While we might be a little biased, we think it’s fair to say that Savannah is one of the most romantic cities in the south. From the swaying spanish moss at Wormsloe to the sandy beaches of Tybee, this great city of ours offers a variety of swoon-worthy photo locales.

Classic engagement photo locations include the gorgeous Forsyth Park and Downtown Historic District, but in case you were looking to get a little out of the box before your big day, we have a few fun suggestions.
On the Move

How adorable are these shots of I&B couple Caitlyn & Jason on the pedicab? A fun way to jazz up the quintessential downtown photo-op is to get your love on wheels! From trolleys to horse-drawn buggies, there are endless options to choose from. Rent a convertible for the day and cruise around town for the coolest engagement photos ever.
The Olde Pink House

Some of our favorite wedding photos ever have been shot at the Olde Pink House. There is just something about those chabby-chic pink walls! This Savannah favorite is just the right blend of modern and vintage. Make it your last stop of the day and treat yourself to date night afterwards-- you’re already all dolled up, so why not?
Old Fort Jackson

Savannah is chock-full of history, and for all of you civil war buffs, Old Fort Jackson is a must see. Not only is this 19th century fort is right on the marsh, offering you the chance to get that perfect on-the-water snap, but the old brick walls make for an absolutely epic backdrop. Live cannon fire will get your hearts pounding… assuming you aren’t already fit to burst looking at your soon-to-be spouse!
The Savannah Botanical Gardens

Florals, florals, everywhere! If you’re looking for gorgeous outdoor photos, we recommend the Savannah Botanical Gardens. This location offers a ton of variety depending upon the time of year. Come in the spring to enjoy the blooms, or dance among the fairy lights during the holidays. How cute would a little tea-party themed engagement shoot be?
Mural Walls

Head downtown for a stroll and go mural-spotting. Take note of your favorites and bring your photographer back for some truly insta-worthy snaps. Click here for some suggestions!
