And one of the best things about Southern California are the palm trees that grace our neighborhoods and campuses. Orange County is covered in this iconic tree.

One of the best spots for CSUF grad photos is at the very large TITANS logo in the middle of the Fullerton campus. It’s larger than life, unless you use forced perspective to get your subject larger than it!

And here is the California State University Fullerton Seal in a graduation photo.

Here is the main entrance on the south side of the Fullerton campus, framed with iconic palm trees.

And we LOVE this awesome grad photo of the CSUF gate and our soon-to-be grad framing it perfectly!

Our grad is a product of the visual arts program at CSUF, so it was only fitting to get a few images after dusk in front of the visual arts building.

Starting with Portraits of their Son

We started by getting family portraits of of just their son.

Then we had the whole family get together for photos.

Having Fun with Leaves at the Fullerton Arboretum

The fall leaves were a lovely shade of yellow, so what better way to keep a toddler boy entertained than to play with the leaves!?

Fullerton Arboretum Family Photography with Bamboo

Then we walked over to the bamboo forest there at the Fullerton Arboretum, starting in front of the picturesque little bridge crossing the small stream.

Then we got some maternity photos of just the pregnant couple together.

I just love how this tree and it’s light brown leaves (or needles) came out in the photo.

Family Photography Fullerton Arboretum

This is a Fullerton Arboretum family photography and maternity photography session of the {L} family, who is pregnant with their second child. They have one son already. They chose the Cal State Fullerton Arboretum and Botanic Garden, a local treasure at the local college. It has several ecosystems, including a bamboo forest and tons of trees. We were lucky to get bright yellow leaves for the fall leaves. You can find more examples of family photos at botanic gardens in Southern California on our website. We have tagged each and every article with keywords to help you find a portrait session that hopefully matches what you are looking to do. That way you can see how Judy does family photos with different locations, different settings, and different family configurations.

The Fullerton Arboretum was originally an orange orchard, but had to be replaced as the orange orchard suffered from disease. And that was the start of the Fullerton Arboretum. Since then it’s been a source of community cooperation and a treasure of the area. It runs off of voluntary donations, so anyone can take a stroll around its amazing grounds.
