If you’re searching for a unique and picturesque setting for your engagement photo session, look no further than The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida. This venue provides a special insight into art and history, combined with some of the most beautiful landscapes. Speaking from a photographer’s perspective, The Ringling Museum is a true Florida gem, offering magnificent backdrops, ideal for documenting your love.

A Glimpse into The Ringling Museum

The Ringling, officially known as The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, is a cultural trove located along the Gulf Coast in Florida. It was built in 1927 by John Ringling, one of the famed Ringling Brothers, and his wife Mable.

The museum complex spreads over 66 acres of lush land. It consists of a world-class art museum, the historic Ca’ d’Zan mansion, a circus museum, as well as some of the most beautifully tended gardens you’ll ever see. 

The architecture is inspired by European styles, especially the period of the Italian Renaissance. This gives the venue an old-world charm that’s hard to find elsewhere in the United States. Naturally, this makes it the perfect engagement photoshoot location, especially for those of you looking for a touch of originality in your photos. One thing to keep in mind is that to be able to access the premises, you’ll need to pay a $300 entrance fee + tax. However, this amount seems insignificant compared to the quality of the photos you’ll receive.
