Professional Lighting Is Important For Quince Photography

This helps show the amazing detail and colors in your daughter's Quinceañera dress. Our professional lighting set up is portable and can be taken anywhere we go for beautiful indoor lighting. In some cases, we may also use lighting for outdoor Quinceanera photography.

Palace of Fine Arts - Beautiful Quince Photography Location

Another one of our favorite SF Bay Area locations for Quinceanera photo sessions is the Palace of Fine Arts. This iconic location is nestled in the beautiful Marina district of San Francisco and attracts tourists and locals alike. To me, this is one of the ideal outdoor locations for your Quinceañera photoshoot. In fact, many of our clients like to start at San Francisco City Hall and then finish the photo session at the Palace of Fine Arts. We frequently see the same Quinceañera photographers at both locations with their models. Some of the special features at this amazing photo destination include incredible architecture, large grassy areas, and a beautiful pond. We can spend an hour photographing our Quinceañera and still not cover all the grounds at the Palace of Fine Arts. Truly one of the most photographic destinations in Northern California because it has so much to offer. It is also a tourist favorite, but it is fairly easy to avoid them during our photoshoots.

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.
