La Jolla wedding film
Nick & Paige
Sandstone, open water, and a film that says it quickly. Sound on.
01The Day
Pale stone.
Nick and Paige were married in La Jolla, and their portraits were made out on the pale sandstone bluffs that run north from the cove.
Theirs is the shortest film here, just under four minutes. It is built almost entirely around that coastline and the last of the afternoon light coming off the water.
02Filming at La Jolla
Notes on the light.
What makes La Jolla worth the drive is the color of the rock. The bluffs here are warm-toned Cretaceous sandstone, and once the light drops low enough to strike them close to flat the whole cliff face warms up and throws that warmth back into faces. It is the reason we push portrait time as late as a timeline will allow here, more than at almost any other coastal venue.
