Located in the beautiful bay-side neighborhood of the Marina in San Francisco is the Palace of Fine Arts Theater, a magical destination for your engagement shoot done in the style of ancient Roman and Greek architecture. Constructed along the peaceful waters of a lagoon, the Palace features a colonnaded pergola that meets under a central rotunda. Not only is the architecture fascinating and romantic, but the flowering landscaping punctuated by willows, pines, and grasses makes for an impressive statement that will last for years to come.
Stroll hand in hand under the grand colonnade as it reaches high overhead and connects in soaring arches as you look out over the lagoon and watch the waterfowl. The columns are rich in texture—their vertical lines and impressive size will add mystery and intrigue to your photographs. The gorgeously landscaped lawns that spread down to the path that surround the lagoon are jewel-green and add a pop of color against the hills of San Francisco rising in the distance.
Its romance and architectural beauty make the Palace of Fine Arts Theater a stand-out location for San Francisco engagement photography. You’ll capture stunning moments here that you’ll treasure for a lifetime.
