White Rock Mountain

This one is a little bit of a drive from Fayetteville, but it tops this list as my favorite Northwest Arkansas elopement and engagement session spot! White Rock Recreation Area is located in Mountainburg and the views are just stunning! There’s gorgeous greenery throughout the year and you can check out those killer sunset views year round!

Downtown Fayetteville Engagement Photos

I LOVE Downtown Fayetteville, especially in the fall. This funky square has tons of gorgeous buildings in different colors and adds an urban twist to your engagement session. Plus, there are tons of murals, parking garages, alleyways and other spots that offer a more modern flair.

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art

Wanting an engagement photo location in Northwest Arkansas that feels more modern and architectural? Enter Crystal Bridges! Located in the heart of Bentonville which has grown relatively upscale and trendy in the last few years, Crystal Bridges is an excellent space for engagement photos, featuring stunning architecture as well as green spaces and paved and non-paved trails.

Buffalo National River

Located just an hour and twenty minutes from Fayetteville, this scenic spot offers painted bluffs and a beautiful, winding river in the background. It’s beautiful year-round, but fall is by far my favorite season for Buffalo River engagement sessions.

Hip, funky and fresh– Eureka Springs is where it’s at! This spot is just a short drive from Bentonville and has some really cool Victorian style architecture!

Waterfalls, fields, forests, oh my! I LOVE Tanyard Creek and it’s one of my favorite Northwest Arkansas engagement photo locations! There are so many gorgeous natural features, including two waterfalls, rock formations, a gorgeous trail and a wooden boardwalk. This is a perfect spot if you want to be outdoorsy and explore a little!

This is my go-to for the couple who don’t want to travel far but who want some epic scenery!
