I the opportunity for some time in San Francisco to try to figure out where the best place to photography the golden gate bridge could be. I had only 3 different times that I could go out shooting, so obviously it's a bit limited. But, still, I think I did find the best Golden Gate Bridge views and even managed to sneak in a couple shots that are more unique than your typical Golden Gate Bridge photography.
So where is the best place to photography the Golden Gate Bridge? My personal favourite was MacKenzie Beach, it just gave such a great perspective of the bridge. The other two locations I went to: Battery Spencer and Presidio Park were also very good, but just didn't have that extra element the beach did.
Anyways, I had so much fun photographing the Golden Gate Bridge, it's a really amazing place, and I'd love to get back where there's some fog!

I live in San Francisco and what he’s calling “MacKenzie Beach” is actually “Marshall’s Beach.” I hope future photographers visiting San Francisco find their way around well.

I started to follow your channel a few month ago. I enjoy your content a lot. And you always impress me as a confident guy. I just stumble upon this episode. Listened to your monologue about your passion about photography and the anxiety and frustration for pursuing your dream, only $200 left in the bank. It hits me with the line "you know you are in love when you don't want to sleep because the world when you are awake is better then your widest dream". looking back lets me realize how far you have gone from. Really happy that life turns around for you. And you totally deserve it !!

I love the last photos!

I like the monologue. I like to know what is going through people's minds while prepping for a shoot and actually shooting.

The mon·o·logue is what makes your photography complete and interesting- sharing what it takes to be a great photgrapher.

Vlog style is cool because it always gives a behinds the scenes of what it took to get the shots. Keep 'em coming...

Awesome content, I think the little rant you had made this one of the best videos I've watched, it gave us a glance at what it's really like being a travel photographer

Great episode and enjoyed the monologue, it's good to hear how other photographers feel when thinks get tough, it makes me at least feel that when i get tired and exhausted i am not alone and it can be normal to feel at the brink of ones limit . But the important thing is that one must carry on.

Thanks for this - am there this week so have been doing some research and thought Presidio was a definite possibility as well as Mackenzie Beach. Did you try around the Golden Gate Bridge Welcome Centre? That looks promising for morning light on the bridge type shots (judging from the map anyway).
