Lighting is Key for SF Bay Area Quinceañera Photography
One of the key factors in obtaining great pictures for a Quinceañera shoot is using the right kind of lighting. We bring in studio off-camera professional lighting and position the lighting at 45 degree angles from our subjects. This helps show the amazing detail and colors in your daughter's Quinceañera dress. One of the favorite locations for this type of photography is the Grand Staircase at San Francisco city hall. We make sure to capture your Quince pictures at this beautiful location from many angles. We will also take you to other breathtaking locations throughout city hall for other photos.

Helpful Information about Quince Celebrations and Traditions
Quinceañeras go way back in history to Aztec times where it represented a girl making the transition to being a woman at age 15. Some of these traditions have changed to some extent because back in those days, the girl would be presented to suitors at this time in her life. For the most part, this no longer happens, but the tradition remains. Quinceañeras are celebrated in most Spanish speaking countries throughout the Americas and especially Mexico. This also includes Latino communities in the United States. The event is still celebrated, but now it is mostly symbolic and traditional. People from Mexico who are living in the United States will usually include a church service as part of this special day in a girl's life. This is also quite common in Mexico itself. Other Latino cultures just do a big celebration party with no Church service. For more information about Quinceañeras check out this very informative link.
