It is located on the northeast corner of CSU Fullerton and holds a variety of ecosystems and many different plant species. So read on for our session of Cal State Fullerton Arboretum family photos!
Starting with Family Portraits of their Son
Look at that adorable face! We started with individual family portraits of their son to get the shoot started.

The Bamboo Forest at the Cal State Fullerton Arboretum
One of our favorite parts of the CSU Fullerton Arboretum is the bamboo forest they have growing next to a small stream. It creates a unique and distinct look to the photos, along with it being fun for the little son to shake!

There is also a small bridge going over the stream that makes for great family photos.

Cal State Fullerton Arboretum Family Photos
This is a family photography portrait session at the CSU Fullerton Arboretum. Cal State Fullerton is located in North Orange County, located along the 57 freeway. This family has one child (a son) and had their family portraits with a bamboo forest, streams, bridges, ponds, and lots of trees and greenery. There is no better natural setting for photos than an arboretum. This location is such a gem, it only requires a voluntary donation at the front entrance. We highly recommend leaving a donation to support such a great local resource and location. In the least, it’s a great garden to stroll around to clear your mind.
The Fullerton Arboretum requires a photography permit, so make sure you secure one if you plan a session. Know that it is basically a donation to an awesome place.
