Palace of Fine Arts has the kind of architecture that does most of the work for you. We shot in the hour before sunset, when the building's shadows stretch long and the foot traffic thins out.
From there we drove down to Baker Beach for the back end of the day, when the sand catches pink and the marine layer comes in to flatten everything.
Multi-location shoots are equal parts choreography and improvisation. We mapped the order in advance, but the actual photos came from being patient at each stop until the light cooperated.
Urban engagements feel different from coastal ones. Less about the landscape, more about the two people moving through it.

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.

Holding a date costs you nothing. We plan it together, and you pay same-day, once the shoot wraps.
