Seattle vs. San Francisco: My Photography Business Featured in Redfin’s Latest Article

Exciting news—Gavin Haag Photography was featured in Redfin’s latest article, San Francisco vs. Seattle: Which is Better? As someone who grew up in San Francisco and now calls Seattle home, I was able to share my perspective on what makes Seattle such a dynamic and visually inspiring place to live and work.

The article covers everything from cost of living and job markets to culture and lifestyle differences. If you’re considering a move or just curious about how these two cities compare, check out the full feature here: San Francisco vs. Seattle: Which is Better?

Why This Feature Matters

Being featured in this piece is a significant milestone for Gavin Haag Photography. Seattle’s creative landscape constantly evolves, and capturing the city’s mix of urban energy and natural beauty is at the heart of what I do.

I shared what I love most about photographing in Seattle: its waterways, changing light, and how the city feels deeply connected to nature, much like San Francisco. Both cities are surrounded by water, but in Seattle, getting out on the Puget Sound or Lake Washington is effortless. That connection to water, combined with Seattle’s atmospheric light, makes for stunning photography. Whether it’s a corporate headshot with reflections off the skyline or a moody portrait by the waterfront, Seattle provides endless inspiration.

What Makes Seattle a Photographer’s Dream

Seattle’s mix of modern architecture, waterfront views, and lush greenery creates an incredible variety of shooting environments. A few of my favorite locations for both commercial and portrait photography include:

  • Pike Place Market: A classic Seattle backdrop with rich textures and movement.

  • Discovery Park: Perfect for portraits with soft, natural light and open landscapes.

  • Downtown High-Rises: Clean lines and reflections make for striking corporate headshots.

  • Industrial District: For an edgier, urban feel, this area provides bold textures and great depth.

If you're a business owner, entrepreneur, or creative professional in Seattle looking to refresh your brand with high-quality images, let’s talk! Whether it’s a polished headshot, real estate photography, or a lifestyle shoot that tells your story, I bring a sharp eye and a collaborative approach to every session.

This Redfin feature is a great opportunity to showcase what I do and why Seattle is such a dynamic city for creative professionals. If you’re considering a move or just want to appreciate Seattle’s distinct character, be sure to read the full article!
