You meet on a stretch of boardwalk where the Pacific throws light across wet sand and palm trees lean like stagehands. The photographer arrives with a compact kit, and the first frames are candid — an exchange, a laugh — while the city hums in the distance. In one hour the shoot moves through three moods: sunlit beach, softened park light, and a quick portrait on an urban overlook.
