How it went
There's a window at Soberanes Trail between four and six in the afternoon where the cliffs catch direct light and the water turns deep teal. That's when we shot.
Next stop was Bixby Bridge, where the cliffs play harder shadows. Different mood entirely from the first spot.
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.
Years from now they'll point to one of these frames and remember exactly what the air smelled like that afternoon.
