Palace of Fine Arts & Baker Beach, Last Hour of Sun.

How it went

Palace of Fine Arts reads more cinematic than most spots. Lines, textures, scale. We composed against the architecture and let the light pick the moments.

Then we made our way to Baker Beach for the beach light: softer color, broader sand, the sun working with the wet sand at the tide line.

Two-plus hours of slow walking, quiet direction, and a couple drives between spots. Each location added a different look to the gallery (coast, cliff, ridge, trees) without the day ever feeling rushed.

These are the photos couples set as their phone wallpapers. Different vibe than the wide-open landscapes, equally theirs.

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.
