in Pennsylvania-Philadelphia
Happy Friday everyone!  

My fiance and I are having our engagement pictures taken next friday in Philadelphia.  While we want some traditional shots of Philadelphia, we are also looking for some unique places and spaces that would make for some great pictures!  Does anyone have any suggestions?  

Thanks!

    Any area around Ben Franklin Parkway...there is a beautiful fountain in front of the Franklin Institute and there are several other museums in that area...I particularly like the landscaping in front of the Rodin Museum

    Hmmm...if you do the Parkway like Bliss said, I would include the area just outside the Barnes Foundation.  i think that area's gorgeous, with the still water pool and everything.  And I know that you don't have to pay to get to that area, but I'd double check with the foundation that photos are allowed...

    Also, behind the Art Museum, near Water Works, the whole area overlooking the dam...

    How about the Magic Gardens on South Street? Definitely unique!

    Ran across this http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/TuOntyIOmHH_5C33EKFZ9Q?select=j7ncxpm1ooNDChoclakPlA#aMyNpgzMzWfQcJ7ECJq2LQ It's Ott's Exotic Plants, there are a lot of great places to take engagement photos here. Don't work for them, just happened across them on a blog I was reading for another topic.

    Great!  Thanks for everyone's opinions.  this is definitely helpful.  I'm still trying to decide between one or two outfits... I definitely want the casual jeans feel (because thats much more me) but feel as though I should have a dressier outfit too..  The other thing is that I'm not exactly sure how to switch outfits when roaming the streets of Philadelphia!

    If you choose my suggestion, Ben Franklin Parkway, you can get changed in the Central Library's ladies room, it is kept clean. I don't know where you would go for the other places people suggested, maybe they could chime in on that.
