Winter Engagement Session at Winterthur in Wilmington, Delaware | LGBTQ+ Photographer

Emily and Megan chose Winterthur in Wilmington, Delaware for their winter engagement session, photographing in the afternoon light as the gardens settled into the quieter season. Winter at Winterthur feels calm, which made space for a relaxed, unhurried session.

We focused on natural movement as they walked the grounds. The golden winter light paired well with Winterthur’s architecture and pathways, creating a timeless backdrop that didn’t distract from the connection between them.

This session was a great example of how engagement photos don’t need peak bloom or warm weather to feel intentional and meaningful. Winter sessions at Winterthur offer a more intimate experience, especially for couples drawn to a documentary approach and natural surroundings.
