Lizzy and Gavin are getting married in a few months and wanted engagement photos in Joshua Tree National Park to include on their save-the dates and wedding invitations. This drive is a major commitment for most, but it is TOTALLY worth it. In fact, I have a couple flying in from the East Coast in the fall specifically for Joshua Tree engagement photos.

What is Joshua Tree?

Joshua Tree is a National Park located in Twentynine Palms, CA. It is known for its rock formations and funky looking cactus–THE JOSHUA TREE. The park makes an ideal backdrop for couples and families going for a boho look in their photos. Engagement photos in Joshua Tree are some of my favorites!

Are you ready for gorgeous photos in Joshua Tree National Park?

I travel to Joshua Tree for engagement shoots, proposals, micro weddings and elopements.

I’m always up for an adventure. Are you ready to adventure with me?

Contact me for more information on how to book your Joshua Tree engagement photos adventure session. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, also be sure to inquire about my wedding packages. Engagement shoots are included or deeply discounted in most of my wedding packages.

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:

➳ The line to get in the gate is LONG!! Arrive early!
➳ There is a $15 fee to enter (although, for whatever reason, they didn’t charge the day I went).
➳ Cell reception inside the park is spotty at best. I recommend dropping a pin at your meeting point and sharing it with your group.

HERE’S THE LOCATION I USED FOR MY SHOOT:

Before heading to Joshua Tree, I scoured the internet looking for GPS coordinates for beautiful photo spots. The truth is, the entire park is beautiful and you really can’t go wrong with any location, BUT I’m here to make your life easier, so here’s the location I used:
