The Cortes Cliff on Cortes Island is a stunning piece of design and architecture. Perched ontop a cliff overlooking Desolation Sound, it's perfectly situated to watch stunning sun rises. The designer, Amber Jordan, did a remarkable job at putting all the elements together to create a warm and inviting environment for the clients.


Photographing this build we discussed what this place represented for the owners. Seeing all of the construction photographs, it was an obvious choice to shoot this at sunrise. We checked in a few days prior as the weather on the west coast can change quickly.


Day of was to get up at a little after 4am to do the last few prep items, it was just a waiting game and a couple very specific shots with the sunrise. It was great having a shot list, and leaving things flexible and open with any changes that might happen.


One of those changes was arriving the prior evening. We started to prep, although the sunset was unbelievable, the sky lit right up with stunning color. Thankfully the designer was open to me capturing a few more images.
