When Melody mentioned that her dream engagement photos would feature “a whimsical and enchanting location full of beautiful flowers and nature,” we instantly knew that Filoli Gardens would be the perfect fit! With its historic vibes, verdant gardens, and lush florals, Filoli is a fantastic choice if you’re looking for a secret garden feel for your engagement photos. And let me tell you, these Filoli Gardens engagement photos did not disappoint!

From the moment we walked through the grounds we were so thrilled they had taken us up on our offer and chosen this location! Every corner was just so full of life! From the music playing in the floral shop and the distant music playing from the event Filoli was hosting the atmosphere was just lovely. Adding to that, the lush gardens and florals added a touch of magic to their photos and created a fairytale-like backdrop.

Like most of our previous couples, Melody and Keith had expressed concerns over being in front of the camera. They never really had professional photos done and we’re a little nervous. But we quickly found out they had nothing to worry about! The best part about working with us, is our posing system! We’re pros at directing our couples in a way that helps us capture those genuine moments and playful energy that make their photos feel so authentically “them.”
