Riverside Park Grand Rapids, Michigan Engagement | Raylene & Brandon


Riverside Park Grand Rapids Engagement


Raylene and Brandon’s engagement session at Riverside Park was a beautiful experience. The couple was easy-going, and their love for each other was evident from the moment they arrived. We started the session and I was struck by the way they look at one another. It is like those romances of Disney movies.

The park’s vast green spaces allowed us to take some fun and playful shots of the couple running and laughing together. We also took advantage of the park’s beautiful willow tree to create some breathtaking images of Raylene and Brandon surrounded by nature, these are always my favorite!

One of the highlights of the session was when we came across that beautiful willow tree with vibrant cascading leaves. We couldn’t resist taking some photos of the couple under the tree, and the results were simply stunning. The light filtered through the leaves, creating a beautiful natural backdrop for the couple.

Grand Rapids, Michigan, is home to one of the most picturesque parks in the area, Riverside Park. Located on the banks of the Grand River, this park offers a scenic and serene atmosphere for couples looking to capture their love in photographs. Recently, I had the privilege of photographing Raylene & Brandon’s engagement session at Riverside Park, and it was an experience that left me awestruck. Here’s a look at their beautiful session and what makes Riverside Park such a perfect spot for engagement photos.

As a photographer, I am always looking for the perfect location that will bring out the beauty of the couple and the setting. Riverside Park is a perfect location that offers a beautiful blend of natural and urban landscapes. The park has a beautiful riverfront, it’s so easily accessible, allows dogs, and vast green spaces that provide the either the river or a small inland lake for engagement sessions.

I can’t wait to photograph Raylene & Brandon’s wedding day at Bay Pointe Woods next almost a full year after this photo shoot! Check back here next June to see their wedding day!
