Featured City Hall Wedding Photography

I chose this particular wedding to be our current featured wedding because there is so much going on here. San Francisco city hall weddings have many aspects and some of them are featured in all of our photography portfolios. However, this recent wedding contains so many of them, I just had to include it at the top of our galleries this month. As one of the leading San Francisco city hall wedding photographers we get the opportunity to shoot a variety of weddings with all kinds of people. Everyone of them is special to us in their own unique way. None are better then the others, but there differences. I was thinking that this wedding contained so many of the elements we look for it is a good one to highlight. We also thought this might be a great chance to list some of these attributes that make this a representative wedding for our portfolio. Scroll down below this wedding image gallery to see some of the key things we love to photograph at San Francisco city hall.

Key Elements we Love to Photograph at SF City Hall

Just to reiterate, we enjoy all of our couples and love to photograph them all, but there are some weddings that work best at San Francisco city hall. Please check out the list below to see some of these items we look for and enjoy photographing.

  • Brides with Veils - The natural light at City Hall catches them and makes them glow
  • Brides with Long Trains - Amazing photos possible on the Grand Staircase
  • Brides with Flowers - Breaks up the neutral grays and whites at SF City Hall
  • Grooms wearing a Tux - The elegance matches San Francisco city hall nicely
  • Grooms Wearing Boutonniere - See above under "Brides with Flowers"
  • Reserved Weddings - 4th floor reserved wedding are our favorites
  • Destination Photo Shoot - The Palace of Fine Arts in this case
  • A limousine - A rarity at City Hall, but this wedding had one
  • High Guest Count - Provides us with opportunities to capture candid moments
  • Newlyweds that really want great photos!

The above list represents our San Francisco city hall wedding wish list. These items provide us with a multitude of amazing wedding photo opportunities and keeps us super busy. This is what we love to do! It is not necessary for your wedding to have all of these things. We can make any wedding stand out for its own attributes. This is just our wish list. However, I would emphasize 2 things from this list. Color is the one thing that San Francisco city hall does not have. So adding flowers for both the bride and the groom really enhances the pictures. That little splash of color added really makes a huge difference. For that reason, I would strongly suggest colorful flowers and not just white ones. These same suggestions apply to the groom as well!
