  • The Industrial Glow

    The Industrial Glow

    Here’s a shot from my San Francisco series that almost slipped through the cracks—a bright red-and-white Manson crane, standing still against the Bay Bridge during golden hour. The way it stood out against the sky gave this industrial scene an unexpected calm. What struck me most, though, was how no one else seemed to notice.…

  • Pier 7, San Francisco

    Pier 7, San Francisco

    I recently rediscovered these photos from around Pier 7 on San Francisco’s waterfront. They never made it into the main series, but I felt they were worth sharing. They’re from the mornings my wife and I spent strolling the pier with a coffee in hand, watching the city come to life as the sun lit…

  • Golden Gate Horizons

    Golden Gate Horizons

    As my San Francisco series comes to a close, it feels fitting to end with the Golden Gate Bridge. Photographing and walking this iconic structure had long been a dream of mine, and finally experiencing both was unforgettable. My wife and I began the day at the Visitor Center, taking in its history and sweeping…

  • Bay Bridge Reflections

    Bay Bridge Reflections

    During my stay in San Francisco, I made the most of my hotel’s closeness to the Bay Bridge, which ended up framing some of my favorite moments. At night, the bridge glowed against the darkening sky, its lights shimmering on the water and pulling us back evening after evening. My wife and I would stroll…

  • San Francisco Lights From Twin Peaks

    San Francisco Lights From Twin Peaks

    After leaving the coast, we decided to make one last stop at Twin Peaks, one of San Francisco’s highest viewpoints. Twin Peaks offers sweeping views of the city and the Bay, making it a must-visit spot to see the city glow at night. On our way there, we realized we had set the GPS to…

  • A Stop at Muir Woods Overlook

    A Stop at Muir Woods Overlook

    After leaving Point Bonita, we made a quick stop at Muir Woods Overlook along the coastal drive. The pull-off sits high above the Pacific, with a wide, unobstructed view of open water stretching to the horizon. There isn’t much to see in the way of landmarks — just the ocean and the sky meeting in…

  • Bright Skies Over Point Bonita Lighthouse

    Bright Skies Over Point Bonita Lighthouse

    Our visit to Point Bonita Lighthouse was amazing, even with the limited hours and harsh midday sun. While exploring Muir Woods National Monument, we realized we had a bit of time to spare and that Point Bonita was just a few minutes away. A park ranger greeted us and gave a brief history before opening…

    San Francisco Curves

    While out seeing the sights, we stopped at Lombard Street to admire its famous curves. Being mindful of residents and tourists, I captured a few photos of the winding street, its charming houses, and the surrounding landscape before moving on. Part of a San Francisco photo series. Lombard Street as viewed from the top. Lombard…

  • Everyday San Francisco

    Everyday San Francisco

    Not every photo from the trip was of big views or famous spots. Some of my favorites came from just walking the streets and noticing the everyday rhythm of San Francisco. Part of a San Francisco photo series.

  • Painted Ladies at Alamo Square

    Painted Ladies at Alamo Square

    In the bright early afternoon, the Painted Ladies stood in full color along the edge of Alamo Square. Their pastel facades and detailed trim caught the sun, while the city skyline rose in the distance behind them. The park was lively, with people stretched out on the grass and others stopping to take photos, yet…

  • A Walk Among Giants

    A Walk Among Giants

    Visiting Muir Woods, it’s easy to feel small beneath the ancient redwoods. Just forty-five minutes outside San Francisco, it makes for an easy day trip. We arrived early in the morning and enjoyed the forest’s calm before the crowds rolled in. I spent the hours walking the trails, photographing spots where sunlight hit the forest…

  • Across to Sausalito

    Across to Sausalito

    While exploring the Bay Area by car, a short lunch stop in Sausalito gave us a quiet moment by the water. Time was short, but I captured a few glimpses of the harbor and hills before we carried on. Part of a San Francisco photo series.
