Janelle+Danny - San Francisco, CA - SoMa, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Pre-Wedding

July 29, 2017 in engagement, portrait

If Janelle and Danny seem familiar, your déja vu is warranted; we previously featured them in their full engagement session a few months ago.  While we were planning that misty session on beach session in Marin, the idea of doing something with a city feel came up in discussion.  We assume they never really let go of that wish, and they approached us for a short session in San Francisco.  We were only too happy to oblige them!  The Yerba Buena Center and the adjacent glass, concrete, and steel structures endemic to it and adjacent SoMa areas served as the backdrop for this shoot.  We traded sweeping vistas into the ocean and the craggy dioramas of their engagement session for clean lines metal and pure planes of glass.

They were equally great in this setting as they were on the beach, which was no surprise; at their core, Janelle and Danny are a great balance of a great love, the ease that only comes with knowing each other so well, and the passion from understanding what the other needs.  All told, we’re only more excited to cover their wedding soon!
