Photography & Film in Pleasanton

Pleasanton's downtown Main Street at dusk is one of the Tri-Valley's easiest backdrops, and the estates around Ruby Hill — Casa Real, the Palm Event Center — host weddings that photograph beautifully in every season. I shoot here constantly: engagement walks past the Firehouse Arts Center, receptions at the fairgrounds, quinceañeras in banquet halls off Hopyard. It's a short drive and a long list of good locations.
