Cherry Blossom Photoshoot | Engagement Photos Greenville SC
Spring in Greenville means two things—cherry blossoms for your engagement photos (and pollen allergies but they’re worth it, haha!). I met this sweet, spunky couple for their cherry blossom photoshoot at Furman University, and we couldn’t have asked for better timing. The trees were in bloom, the sun was out, and these two brought all the fun energy you could want from an engagement photo session.
They drove in from out of town and made the campus part of their storybook. From dancing under petals to walking hand-in-hand by the little creek, we made their engagement photos in Greenville SC full of movement and joy.
Why Furman University Is Great for Engagement Photos in Greenville SC
If you’re planning engagement photos in Greenville SC, Furman University is one of the prettiest springtime spots around. It’s peaceful (and private!), easy to explore, and filled with blooms and soft light.
The cherry trees bloom near the lake and walking paths, usually around March or April depending on the weather. Each year is a little different, so if you’re planning a cherry blossom photoshoot, be sure to stay flexible.

Tips for Planning a Cherry Blossom Photoshoot
Cherry blossoms don’t last long, which makes this kind of shoot feel extra special. Keep an eye on the weather as spring showers in Greenville are common, and be ready to shift your date if needed. The blooms usually appear in early spring and stick around for only a few weeks.
Even if the blossoms are early or late, Furman still offers gorgeous spots for portraits. The rose ‘maze’ bushes and gazebo in the Furman Rose Garden and lakeside views work beautifully all season long.
