Love, love, love photographing people who are visiting San Francisco from some other place. Just gives a great feel to the entire day. Erica and Nate are moving out to the Bay Area from Pennsylvania this summer and were out looking at places (can you say “sticker shock”?). Their wedding is back home but they wanted to have a few engagement photographs from San Francisco. Both Erica and Nate love the outdoors so we started at the the Presidio woods and then finished at the iconic Baker Beach for a few photographs with the Golden Gate Bridge. As always the Presidio was beautiful. The light was gorgeous and with all the spring rain everything was super lush. A friend of their’s gave them Erich Segal’s “Love Story” as a memento. Spend just a few moments with Erica and Nate and you’ll realize that this was a perfect addition to their photographs. So we strolled around the presidio looking for light coming through the trees. Showing them this place that is really special to me was a lot of fun and the photographs game out great. We then drove over to Baker Beach. As we were going past the World War II Memorial in the Presidio, the sun was setting so we pulled over to get a few photographs of them walking in the trees. I’ve only ever driven by there and I was really happy to get a chance to photograph there. Another lesser known beautiful place in San Francisco. After a few shots there we ended up at Baker Beach. Great fun but I have to say that I had never seen the water so high. You probably can tell that Nate is definitely not the smallest man you’ll meet so it was fun to see him showing off his hops.
Congrats Erica and Nate with the engagement and wedding and I hope to see you again when you move here.
These are a few my favorites. Take a moment to vote and I’ll send them an extra print of the most popular.
I grow my business almost entirely by word of mouth. If you know someone that maybe interested in my wedding or engagement photography please let me know. I will treat them great and give you a nice thank you present.
