An engagement session at Bok Tower Gardens featuring an incredible variety of scenery. It started at the historic estate mansion and it ended in the wispy hills that surround the gardens, beautifully touched by the golden sunlight. From start to finish, the changing scenery was a showcase for all the spots that Bok Tower has to offer for engagement sessions.

This is what an engagement session at Bok Tower Gardens in the morning looks like. The surprise proposal happened shortly after opening hours (8:00 am) with all the last remnants of the soft morning light. As the sun continued to rise, the colors in the flowers intensified with vibrancy.

Your engagement session should feel fun and full of laughter. I’ll help you feel comfortable in front of the camera in a way that brings out your natural smile.
I'll take you to the best spots around Bok Tower. If you plan on wearing heels, bring a separate pairs of shoes that are easy to get in and out of because the gardens are huge and we'll end up walking about a mile.
You’ll get a mix of candid moments and lightly posed portraits that look natural, candid, and romantic. Bok Tower allows dogs for an extra fee. Even though the park closes at 6 pm, they stop letting people in at 5:00 pm.
Photos That Celebrate Your Engagement
more connection, less posing
The Engagement Experience
it's all about capturing the chemistry
Whether you have a specific location around the gardens in mind or would like me to recommend some ideas, we'll make sure to find the best location for your engagement session.
Well make sure to get all the iconic spots, such as the tower and the estate mansion, and also some of the hidden gems I've discovered over the years.
1. The Location
Once you have settled on a date, all it takes to book your session is a payment and a signed contract; both can be done online in less than 5 minutes. You don't have to pay for my entry to the gardens, I have an annual pass.
2. Booking your date
The main entrance is visibly located next to the parking lot; I'll meet you there and we'll venture into the gardens together. We'll have a full hour to walk around and make stops along the way. I know the best route to maximize our time and hit every stop
Don't be afraid to dress up and look your best! Solid, neutral colors (especially earth tones) are recommended. If wearing heels, bring a separate pair of flats, there will be a considerable amount of walking. If bringing your dog, invite a friend that can give you a break and hold on to the leash for photos without your dog in them.
3. The Day of the Session
4. After The Session
Sneak previews available the next day! The rest of the session will be delivered via an online gallery 2 week after the session.
Your online gallery gives you easy access to your photos by simply clicking on a link. You can share this link with anyone else. You can create lists to narrow down your favorite photos for future prints. You (or anyone else) can order prints directly from the online gallery.

Your engagement session is designed to celebrate your relationship in a meaningful and fun way. We’ll choose a location that fits your vision; serene or regal, you can include your dog, or plan for an outfit change. The focus stays on real moments, authentic connection, with enough time to let loose and not feel any time constrictions. This session can be 50% off with a wedding package.
When quality is important to you, even on a budget. I'll help you pick a location that's special and makes you look amazing! No stiff awkward poses, just natural moments, happy laughs, and the tender connection that makes your relationship unique. We'll spend 30 minutes creating beautiful engagement photos. But for a place like Bok Tower, I recommend booking one hour.

“Andy is an all around rockstar. He was recommended to me by a photographer friend after he did her friend's wedding. He responded to emails almost immediately and with a ton of information for me. He answered all my questions with grace, which I appreciated so much. Our engagement photos in Orlando were phenomenal! It started raining off and on right before them and Andy was extremely flexible essentially just saying we could just go with the flow and make it work whether it was as scheduled or down the line. A year later, he shot our wedding and he was impeccable. We got a sneak peeks only a handful of days after the wedding and absolutely every single one was breathtaking. Highly, highly recommend all around. You will not regret it!” -Erin
"Really loved working with him. Super easy going and gave good direction as we needed a lot of it! Made us feel comfortable. He did our engagement photos in Orlando, and we then invited him again to do our wedding and couldn’t be happier with the way the photos turned out! We were actually amazed how many good ones there were we could never decide our favorites!! I would highly recommend!" -Caysi
