Urban Ecology Center at Riverside Park

1500 E Park Pl, Milwaukee, WI 53211

A massive wooden bridge is just the start to this lovely location. There’s almost a forestry feel to it making it one of our favorites. The wooden benches and fences give it that oh so popular rustic look and really make your engagement photos stand apart from everyone else’s.

And just like the dress, often times, couples will be able to envision their images once they see a location and they just know it’s their special spot. However, we realize we’ve given you many breathtakingly beautiful backdrops so if you’re debating between a few, please keep us in the loop as we’re here and really love to help in any way that we can! 🙂
