The Enid A Haupt Garden magnolias offer such a beautiful backdrop for spring engagement photos in Washington DC. Tucked behind Smithsonian Castle, the garden offers a quiet setting in the middle of the bustling city, with winding paths, manicured gardens, and bursts of pink and white when the magnolia trees are in bloom.
Brittiny and Jonathan chose the Enid A Haupt Garden in Washington DC for their magnolia engagement session this spring. They flew in from Florida just to catch peak magnolia bloom, and DC absolutely delivered! Despite the 20-degree morning, they brought so much warmth, energy, and chemistry to their session that you’d never guess how cold it actually felt. Talk about bringing the heat in every single frame!
As a Washington DC wedding photographer, I love capturing couples throughout the city in spring, when the cherry blossoms and magnolias transform so many of DC’s most iconic locations. From the Enid A Haupt Garden to the National Arboretum and Tidal Basin, there are so many beautiful places for engagement photos when the city is in bloom.

Planning an Enid A. Haupt Garden Magnolia Engagement Session?
The magnolias at the Enid A. Haupt Garden only bloom for a short time each year, so timing your session around peak bloom can take a little planning. As a DC wedding photographer, I’ve photographed spring sessions throughout the city for years and know how quickly the blooms can change. I’m always happy to help you keep an eye on the blooms and figure out when to schedule your session to catch them at their best.
