Lakeside, Oregon & California Coast

At the end of August, my sister and I took a road trip to spend a week in Lakeside, Oregon with a family friend. We decided to drive home along the PCH, camping along the Navarro River in Northern California for one night and camping south of Big Sur, California for the next. I absolutely loved the scenery along the way as we traversed down the Pacific Coast.

At the end of August, my sister and I took a road trip to spend a week in Lakeside, Oregon with a family friend. We decided to drive home along the PCH, camping along the Navarro River in Northern California for one night and camping south of Big Sur, California for the next. I absolutely loved the scenery along the way, as we traversed down the Pacific Coast.

I quickly started editing the photos and finally finished compiling some of my favorites. The images were all created with a Canon 5D Mark IV and were predominantly edited with Adobe Lightroom.

The pictures are presented chronologically, which I rarely do, but it felt right for this group of images. I hope they provide you with even a small taste of the experience of exploring the Pacific Coast.

San Simeon, California

Last Sunday I drove up to San Simeon, California for sunset and stopped at a pullout along the PCH a little south of Hearst Castle. I was excited to get a colorful sunset since the last four or five times I’d gone out to photograph had been incredibly overcast.

Anyway, here’s a few of my favorite images from the evening. They were all made using a Canon 5D Mark IV and a 16-35mm lens. I used Adobe Lightroom and either Nik Color Efex Pro or OnOne Photo Raw to edit them.

San Francisco, California

During the course of the three-day weekend for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I went to San Francisco, California with two friends. We photographed the Golden Gate Bridge, downtown San Francisco, and the East side of San Francisco. It was an awesome experience!

All the photographs were created using a Canon 5D Mark IV along with a 16-35mm lens. The wide-angle provided some challenges for the street photography, but it forced me to get creative and make use of what I had available.
