Bay Area Engagement Session: Muir Woods and Sutro Baths
Tara & Brendan’s Bay Area engagement session ran the length of the spectrum, from romantic to playful, as we moved through Muir Woods and Sutro Baths. Where else in the country can you reach seaside and redwood trees, hiking trails and 130-year-old bathhouse ruins, in the space of an afternoon?
These two met at work, the old-school way – they were both bartenders! Brendan proposed on a bridge (in the San Francisco Japanese Tea Gardens), so the bridges of Muir Woods were a perfect setting to document their love. And there’s something so romantic about the Sutro ruins at sunset.
Brendan and Tara are great to work with – considerate, fun and easy going. They are good friends as well as sweethearts, and I can’t wait for their Rancho Nicasio wedding this October!

These Bay Area photo locations are nothing short of amazing. Muir woods and Sutro Baths look positively dreamy for engagement photos or any type of photography! Great work.
Great engagement photos! The redwood trees seem so intimate and private, and then they look like they’re conquering the world. I’ve never seen anything white like the Sutro Baths – I just love their reflection in the water! Great job!
It’s so great that you get so many different types of photos for these two. I really love the Muir Woods photos but the light is so amazing at the sutro baths too. Lovely

Hey!
I’ve got a shoot coming up at Muir Woods for a friend. What focal length did you use? I have a 24-70mm and 24 is the widest I can go with reliable autofocus. Would like to leave my 14mm at home since it’s manual
Hi! You should be fine with the 24mm, I don’t bring anything wider than that because of so much walking. Good luck on your shoot, and get that parking pass ahead of time!
