When nature-loving souls like Janet and Ryan choose the Los Angeles Arboretum for their engagement session, you know it's going to be special. Nestled in the heart of Arcadia, this picturesque botanical garden offered the perfect backdrop to celebrate their journey toward forever.
Janet and Ryan's love for the outdoors and extensive knowledge of flora and fauna made this session uniquely theirs. The golden hour light illuminated the iconic fountain area, the serene Baldwin Lake, the vibrant rose garden, and the sprawling Meadowbrook area, transforming each location into a dreamscape.
Why the LA Arboretum is Perfect for Engagement Photography
The Arboretum is not only a feast for the eyes but also a treasure trove for photographers. From its diverse plant collections to its charming wildlife, like the peacocks we encountered during the shoot, it offers endless opportunities to create magic. However, planning ahead is key—sessions here require a photo permit ($70) and an entry fee ($15 per person).

Whether it was the candid laughter near Baldwin Lake or their quiet connection under the golden light of the Meadowbrook area, every frame told a part of their story.

A Glimpse into Their Future Wedding
