Redwood Shade at Henry Cowell Redwoods.

How it went

Henry Cowell Redwoods is a cathedral grove. The light comes down in shafts, the sound drops out, and the scale of the place does the work for you.

A relaxed ninety minutes. We walked the perimeter, found the angles that worked, and let the light do most of the heavy lifting. The couple loosened up after the first ten minutes and that's when the gallery really came together.

18 photos among the trees. They'll be back in a year for the wedding portraits and the forest will be exactly the same.

The shoot
The whole shoot, not just the highlights

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.
