The Hudson Valley’s Hidden Gem for an Engagement Session!
For couples who want a place that embodies old world charm with lots of photo opportunities, Vanderbilt Manion is the spot for an engagement session! Regardless of the time of year, there is something picturesque about Vanderbilt. From the main mansion, to its gardens, Vanderbilt is a popular spot for locals. And couples too!
On a warm spring day, Ellie & Mike joined me at Vanderbilt. We knew that there was rain coming in, but we enjoyed our time before the storm hit. Utilizing the main building along with randoms spots, these two enjoyed themselves. And the outcome was amazing!
As a personal recommendation, try to hit it on a weeknight if you’re looking for less crowds! The site runs tours on the weekends so expect to see larger crowds.
