With a warm sea breeze, hollyhocks growing five-feet tall, and a golden glow among the garden, Olivia and Patrick had an absolutely ideal Summer evening for their engagement session.

We started at the mansion and its lush gardens before heading down to the water. The best park about Harkness Park is its various locations, perfect to create variety in one gallery.

This gem along the Connecticut coast is the perfect mix of coastal ease and historic grounds.
