Surprise Proposal & Engagement Photo Locations We’ll Be Scouting in Clovis This October

We’ll be in Clovis, California on October 15, 17, and 18, in town to capture a wedding on the 16th. While we’re here, we’ll also be spending time scouting the area, getting familiar with the light, foot traffic, and overall feel of Clovis — and opening a very limited number of photography spots for couples interested in engagement photos or a surprise proposal.

Although we haven’t photographed proposals or engagements in Clovis yet, we approach every new location with intention. That means walking the spaces ourselves, understanding how they feel in real life, and identifying where meaningful moments can naturally unfold.

Below are some of the areas we’ll be checking out while we’re in town — locations that are popular, scenic, and well-suited for intimate, story-driven photography.

Dry Creek Trail & Trailhead Park

Why we’re scouting it:
This area is known for its quiet paths, mature trees, and open stretches that feel calm and natural. In mid-October, the light tends to soften and warm, making it a great environment for relaxed engagement photos or a low-key surprise proposal during a walk.

This location feels ideal for couples who want something simple, grounded, and personal without drawing attention.

Old Town Clovis & Letterman Park Area

Why we’re scouting it:
Old Town Clovis has character. Brick walkways, historic elements, and nearby cafés create a charming backdrop that works well for proposals followed by a celebratory meal or drinks.

We’ll be looking for quieter pockets and angles that feel intimate while still capturing the charm of the area.

Woodward Park (Short Drive from Clovis)

Why we’re scouting it:
Woodward Park offers variety in a single location — open lawns, scenic paths, and structured garden areas. It’s a popular spot for a reason, and with the right planning and timing, it can feel elevated and intentional rather than crowded.

October is a great time to explore how the park flows during golden hour.

San Joaquin River Parkway Trails

Why we’re scouting it:
These trails offer a more secluded, nature-forward feel. We’re interested in seeing how accessible and quiet certain sections are, especially for couples who value privacy and want their proposal to feel uninterrupted and genuine.

This type of location works well for storytelling-focused photography.

Private or Semi-Private Outdoor Areas Near Clovis

Why we’re scouting it:
When possible, private land or less-trafficked outdoor spaces can create a truly intentional experience. While in town, we’ll be keeping an eye out for areas that offer openness, minimal distractions, and a timeless feel.
