If you ask me, we live in the best city around #santacruztownlife am I right?
Mainly because we have so many beautiful locations that serve as natural backdrops for our photo session.
Whether you are booking a Santa Cruz family photography session, a couples photography, or a branding photo session, Santa Cruz has some beautiful spots and today I am simply highlighting the forest and the redwoods!
The Redwoods for me is always a beautiful spot for intimate and quiet sessions. There are vast options and open spaces in the forest, we can always find the perfect quiet spot for your next Santa Cruz Family photo session. If you live near the Aptos area, Nisene Marks is always a favorite spot.
Because it is such a massive national park, I don’t worry about sharing this location. There is always a little corner we can find where no one will disturb us!
For those traveling into Santa Cruz, Henry Cowell is always a favorite.
The magnificent Redwoods are always a favorite of mine when scouting and picking locations and the two places mentioned above are just a few of the spots around town!
Scroll down and you will find a few more spots that are perfect for redwood backdrops!
Feel free to reach out and mention any of these Santa Cruz Forest Locations for your next Photography session and we will venture into the woods for our next Santa Cruz photoshoot.
I know all Santa Cruz Photographers have their own special spots they have mastered their techniques at. I know I myself, have found a few different redwood locations that give me the perfect backdrop for those beautiful quiet, and majestic photo sessions!
Thank you for being here!
