Eolia Mansion Engagement Session at Sunset

October 11, 2021

Lauren and Timothy’s warm night at Eolia Mansion Connecticut at Harkness Memorial Park in September is perfectly garden luxe. We strolled through the English gardens on this glowy evening and ended on the beach with cotton candy skies. Therefore, I hope this Eolia Mansion Harkness Memorial Engagement Session will captivate you as it did us. It really was nothing short of magical.

The Location for this Eolia Mansion Engagement Session

Eolia Mansion is the perfect location for your engagement session. Obviously, the stunning beauty of the English gardens is the perfect backdrop for a romantic session. It is elegant and classic, refined and sophisticated. Clearly, it’s not too soft, not too feminine, yet it is chic at the same time. The best part? Eolia Mansion not only gave a beautiful backdrop to their photos, but also gave Lauren and Timothy a beautiful place to actually enjoy their session.

The Posing for this Eolia Mansion Engagement Session

We wanted to capture a sweet, summer ease with this set of images. The couple wanted their images to feel radiant and beautiful. This session was a stunning celebration of their love, and a testament to the magic that is captured in the perfect location with the perfect lighting. Therefore, we kept the posing simple and soft with a touch of refinement.

Lauren and Timothy made their way to the beach just as the sun began to set. There, they were greeted with cotton candy skies. We captured that never-ending summer feeling and danced a bit in the sand. This created beautiful and intimate moments on camera. My favorite part is the color and tones. Fuji400 on the Contax 645 gave the creamiest, dreamiest color and tone to their images.

The Results

Eolia Mansion at Harkness Memorial Park has the most stunning scenery, and this engagement session is a testament to its beauty. However, the warmth and love that Lauren and Timothy shared throughout their session is what truly made it special. The photos we captured are a true reflection of the couple’s love story and the beauty of Eolia Mansion.

Visiting the Park

When you arrive to Eolia Mansion, you’ll drive down a long driveway with tall grass and marsh lands on each side. This main road leads you to the parking lot. As you drive in, Connecticut license plates are no charge, however, out of state plates must pay a fee at the attendant booth. You may find parking anywhere within the main lot. If there is a wedding that evening, the left side of the parking lot will be reserved and off limits. Bathrooms are in the main building to your right, and the path to the Mansion is to your left. The middle path will lead you directly to the beach. Message me here to schedule your Harkness Memorial Engagement session.
