Knoxville Botanical Gardens Engagement — Priyanka + Manish
There’s nothing we enjoy more than a sunny session with gorgeous blooms surrounding a couple, and Priyanka and Manish’s Knoxville Botanical garden engagement was just that. This pair was in town for her cousin’s wedding, so it was the perfect opportunity for the couple to also set up a session for their own photos. Although the two are currently long distance, their relationship is one based on sharing similar core beliefs and valuing family.
These two will be celebrating soon in a traditional engagement ceremony, and we want to wish them the very best as they plan for their wedding and lives together. There’s a quiet magic to the stone walls and heritage trees at the Knoxville Botanical Gardens. For Priyanka & Manish, we leaned into luminous, film-inspired tones and effortless movement—letting soft light, gentle paths, and tucked-away corners frame their story with ease.
Planning Notes
- Best light: The last 60–90 minutes before sunset are dreamy across the open lawns and walls.
- Wardrobe: Soft textures and neutrals keep the look timeless against the gardens’ natural palette.
- Logistics: Check the gardens’ current photography guidelines; we’re happy to advise on permits and timing.
