I'm a DMV couples photographer and Moongate Garden is one of my FAVORITE spot for portraits! This summer I've had some engagement and maternity sessions here and it's my new go-to recommendation for engagement photo locations! The garden offers variety for your photos, without being too large. It's easy to walk around and not too challenging to find spots without a bunch of people in the background!

Taking up a good portion of the Enid A Haupt garden, the Moongate Garden is a refreshing retreat from the hustle and bustle of the National Mall. It was designed by architect Jean Paul Carlhian inspired by the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. It features 4 nine foot granite moon gates. Two are on either side of the pool and two are laid flat in opposite corners for seating.

This place is located near the Smithsonian Castle! We visited expecting blooms, but the location didn’t disappoint us! Great views to take candid clicks. You can enter this place thru Castle or there is a private entry on the left side of the castle. Must visit if you want one of kind ‘moon gate’ to take some great pictures 👍🏻
