This image, taken in late 2007, depicts the Palace of Fine Arts (located in the Marina District of San Francisco, CA) prior to it’s $22 million restoration in 2008. Though I did not have a perspective control lens, correcting for converging vertical lines in Photoshop, was trivial.
The late summer and early fall around my neck of the woods, provides some of the best light during what photographers know as the “golden hour.” For this portrait, the model found a great outdoor spot during one of her outings and we were lucky enough to find a time when no one was around, leaving us free to work uninterrupted. We only had a little over an hour to work but we got in at least 2 dozen great shots.
