(Above) I’m pretty happy with this picture because they wanted a picnic look and had these grand aspirations of the prototypical look, and when I saw this bright and yet rustic fence I thought this will be different and fun. They trusted me enough that their awesome idea would work in a grungy street in the middle of no where on a patch of here today gone tomorrow green grassy-weedy with a couple of surprise flowers. No big fancy set up needed… just plop down the blanket and basket and say, hey by the way we’re doing your picnic picture here now have yourself a little romantic moment while I lay down on this sidewalk.
A continuation
Last week I posted a teaser of some of the pictures I had taken at night of a couple in front of the Golden Gate Bridge.
The Rest
Today I share the rest of the pictures taken throughout the day and throughout the city.
They get married in July in Idaho but she lives close to San Fransisco and I was already there doing a wedding, so he came down and we spent a few hours trying out dozens of locations throughout the city.
You want good pictures?
What makes for a great engagement picture session? a whole bunch of enthusiasm… and this couple certainly had it and it led to me trying out a bunch of new things. If a couple is good with “whatever” then that’s what happens, and if they want amazing and are willing to work for it, then that’s what we’ll strive for.

No… no one is a pilot… but we saw it from the freeway and all thought it looked so scenic… and we were right!
(Above Right) – “Sitting on the dock of the bay -Watching the tide roll away - I’m just sitting on the dock of the bay - Wasting time”
Not many of the above look a ton like San Fransisco and that’s because some of them were north of town… but this one is right in the heart of the city (above)
As were the two below
