Photographer based out of San Francisco, CA. Focusing on travel and landscapes, my aim is to inspire others to get outside and connect with their own adventures.

I love that you can come here and be greeted to a variety of views. Whether it's views of the water in the distance, low fog hanging around the hills, or the curvy roads that photographers just can't get enough of, it's a beautiful spot that's only about a 1.5 hour drive from the city. Check out Super Duper burgers on the way back.

I love coming here and imagining that I'm a part of the Star Wars universe (fact: they filmed scenes from Endor here). An easily accessible escape from the city, it's also free (with guests) if you have a US National Parks annual pass.

One of my favorite spots in the city to catch a great view! Not only is the mosaic staircase beautiful and a huge draw for this spot, it's a great place to see sweeping views of the ocean, the bridge, the bay, the park, the city, all of it! Whenever I have friends in town, I take them here and wait for the happy reactions :)
