Daybreak on the Golden Gate

from $34.00

The warnings we got about car camping near the Golden Gate Bridge had us on edge, but Christmas Eve turned out to be completely quiet. We woke up early on Christmas morning, shaking off the chill, and made the short hike up the concrete steps of the old military battery.

The wind was already howling by the time we reached the top of the structure. It whipped off the Pacific, carrying that heavy, sharp scent of saltwater and the sea breeze. If you stood close enough to the edge, you could hear the rhythm of the waves smashing into the dark rocks far below the cliffs.

Then the horizon started to break. Standing up on that old concrete overlook, we watched the first light of Christmas morning hit the orange steel of the Golden Gate Bridge. It is easily one of the most iconic locations in the world, but in that moment, with the wind in our faces and the city still asleep across the bay, it felt entirely ours. It was a beautiful, crisp morning, and a reminder that the best holiday traditions are the ones you find out on the road.

Metal Prints

Metal prints are celebrated for their unmatched durability and vibrant color presentation, delivering extraordinary sharpness and detail. The sleek, modern finish enhances the luminosity of each image, making colors pop with a radiant glow. With superior fade resistance, metal prints maintain their brilliance over time, embodying the pinnacle of photographic reproduction.

Each image is first printed to a transfer paper, then infused into Chromaluxe metal by heat and pressure. This process combined with our custom made color profiles give true to life colors and exceptional detail.

Fine Art Glicee Paper Prints

Fine art prints stand out with their exceptional quality, capturing the subtlety of shades and the intricacies of texture, ideal for reproducing artworks and photographs with artistic merit. Their archival inks and heavyweight papers promise longevity and aesthetic appeal, offering a sophisticated, gallery-worthy presentation that honors the creator's vision. All fine art prints require framing. I currently do not offer framing or mat boards for photo prints and fine art prints.

My fine art prints utilize the highest quality archival inks printed onto premium photo paper. This process ensures a sharp and true-to-life image, reflecting both the subtleties and vibrance of the original.

Canvas Prints

A museum-quality canvas ready for display. Using the giclee printing process, archival ink is sprayed onto these fine art canvases and gallery-wrapped. These prints feature subtle fine art texture with ultra-tight corners and sharp color accuracy.

All photos are printed on certified archival quality canvas that is hand-stretched in the USA around a 1.5” wood stretcher frame. Canvas includes a smooth matte finish that eliminates any unwanted glare or reflections. Canvas is a poly-cotton blend that is guaranteed to have a 100+ year display life. With no optical brighterners or synthetic fibers, this is considered the highest quality canvas available in the photo printing industry. Once wrapped, a durable display handware is attached directly to the back of the canvas. Depending on the size, this will either be a sawtooth or wire for hanging.

Recommend using a microfiber towel to remove dust or fingerprints.
