Taking it to the Streets
Everyone takes wedding portraits in front of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Palace of Fine Arts. Instead, consider a more unusual, spontaneous-looking backdrop—like the streets of San Francisco. The contrast between your formal wedding attire and the raw, bustling, urban environment will be captured in an authentic and dramatic shot. Let your photographer know where you want your location shots taken and the amount of time you want to spend on them—this will make the photo session move faster (you don't want to miss the entire cocktail hour). Take these shots before the ceremony or on the way to the reception—and remember to leave room in the limo for your photographer. This impromptu photo, taken by Gene Higa Photography, 877-771-3223, genehiga.com, was shot against the side of a graffitied building on Market Street. The couple simply jumped out of their limo on the way to their reception in Chinatown.
