Bodega Bay Proposal and Engagement Photos | Bay Area Engagement Photographer

This Bodega Bay proposal was the kind of session that reminds me why I love what I do because it was pure joy from start to finish! From the moment he got down on one knee, they didn’t stop smiling or laughing, and it made documenting every second feel so effortless and fun! (Get all the info about colorful and fun San Francisco Bay Area proposal and engagement photography here!)

The morning drive up the coast was filled with on-and-off drizzle, but as soon as I reached the overlook, the rain let up and left us with the dreamiest soft, overcast light. These are honestly some of my favorite conditions to shoot in. If you’re searching for the best spots in Bodega Bay for engagement photos, this area around the Bodega Bay Trailhead is hard to beat. You get rugged cliffs, ocean views, and plenty of space to explore and make the session feel like an adventure. (I also love this location that’s just a little farther north!)

And these two fully leaned into it. They climbed over rocks, hiked in sandals, and even ran into the ocean in the middle of winter. Exactly the kind of energy that makes photos feel real, playful, and completely them.
