There's a window at Bixby Bridge between four and six in the afternoon where the cliffs catch direct light and the water turns deep teal. That's when we shot.
Then we drove to Soberanes Trail for the cliff-edge angles: sharper light, wider horizons, the kind of frame that makes the surrounding coast look bigger.
Pacing was the hard part. Each spot got its own window, the light moved with us, and the drives between gave the couple time to reset and relax before the next backdrop.
The view does most of the work. The couple does the rest. 6 frames of one quiet hour at the edge of the Pacific.
See each spot in depth.
Here’s a few highlights from this shoot. Most photographers only ever show a static portfolio of their very best images. I think every potential client should see more than that: the full shoots themselves. Nothing sets expectations like seeing multiple sessions at one location in different weather, times of day, and seasons. We get amazing photos no matter what, and we’re not afraid to show you.
