The South Coast Botanic Garden is located in Southern California, and it’s a beautiful and extremely spacious vicinity. It has trails to walk along, a rose garden, and so much more! It almost feels like being in the middle of a forest at times, due to how much nature it includes. It’s a perfect location for a dreamy, nature shoot, or to just stop and smell the roses.

I truly love shooting at this location! I hit the timing just right for this shoot, and that day had perfect lighting. Also, since the botanic garden is so large, it allows me to discover so many different locations to shoot at. For example, if I want to go to the botanic garden with a different subject, I don’t have to worry about shooting at the same spot of flowers where I did on a previous shoot. Overall, the South Coast Botanic Garden is an amazing spot!
