Tucked away in the Bay Area, this secluded grove was the ideal spot for an intimate engagement photoshoot.

During my recent time in California, I discovered the perfect hidden gem—a mini redwood tree park that felt straight out of a dream. Tucked away in the Bay Area, this secluded grove was the ideal spot for an intimate engagement photoshoot, and I couldn’t wait to go back! If you’re looking for a redwood location for your engagement photos in the Bay Area without traveling hours away, this hidden redwood park is a dream.

Shayna, Patrick, and I spent the afternoon exploring the park’s beauty. We captured candid moments as they danced on a wooden bridge and shared laughs by the little creek—absolute magic.

What made this redwood engagement session so special was the laid-back atmosphere. The redwoods brought a sense of calm, letting the couple feel entirely at ease. There was no stiff posing or pressure—just genuine love and happiness in one of the most beautiful spots in Northern California.
