California Coast Anniversary Portraits

Married couple walk together enjoying the view at Slide Ranch on the California coast.

There are few places more appealing than the California coast when it comes to picking a portrait location. Local to the Bay Area, N + W wanted to celebrate their first year of marriage with an anniversary session somewhere beautiful and Slide Ranch quickly became our top location choice! (Seriously, I could photograph couples here all the time!)

We started off by the goat pen because, duh, cute goats, but also check out this amazing wall of white flowers!!

After admiring the goats (they’re so stinking cute!) and the white flowers, we headed down the path closer to the water’s edge. Yellow wildflowers, massive rock formations, a windswept beach, and pelicans were all waiting for us.
