UC Davis Arboretum Teaching Nursery

"Capturing engagement sessions and quinceanera pre-event sessions at the UC Davis Arboretum is a photographer's dream! This place offered an enchanting backdrop that perfectly tells the story of the day. Diverse landscapes, vibrant gardens, and serene pathways provided an amazing canvas, allowing me to create captivating images. Whether it was the soft sunlight filtering through the trees during the engagement session or the vibrant bursts of color in the gardens during the quinceañera pre-event session, every shot felt like a work of art. Here are some of my favorite quince pre-event sessions and engagement shoots I had the chance to capture at the UC Davis Arboretum!"

"What an amazing and beautiful park in the UC Davis area. Totally had fun here. Found the trail here on AllTrails App and was definitely impressive with the atmosphere and all the activities around me. We ended up doing 3 loops around the lake. It's a safe and family friend area. Parking was free."

"Totally great place to spend a morning or afternoon, or the whole day. Plants, trees, and flowers that you won't see often unless you do a lot of world wide traveling. My wife and I spent the afternoon stopping and gawking at the wonderful plants. We were here on the 21st of November and the fall colors were also glorious. A fun place to use an app to help identify flowers and leaves. The only drawback was the lack of bathroom facilities and drinking water."

"We like to go out to UC Davis a couple times a year to check out the plants and enjoy the college campus. During covid this was wonderful, plenty of space to sit in green grass and relax or walk along the water to spot turtles and various birds. Our kids enjoyed seeing the horses, cows and llamas as well. Great way to spend an afternoon."
