Coral Gables: streets with a Mediterranean soul
Stone gateways, cream façades, red tile roofs and trees shading the sidewalks. A session that feels like a stroll through southern Europe, minutes from home.
A city designed to look beautiful
Coral Gables was planned in the 1920s with Mediterranean-inspired architecture, monumental entrances and tree-lined avenues. A century later, its streets are still a natural set.
The historic entrances
Gateways, pergolas and columns at the city's entrances, such as the Prado entrance, create symmetrical, elegant frames.
Alhambra and around
The Alhambra Water Tower, styled like a Mediterranean lighthouse, and the homes around it make a postcard backdrop.
Miracle Mile
Storefronts, awnings and classic façades for an urban, chic look, perfect for couples and portraits.

Using light, shade and traffic in our favor
Coral Gables' trees filter the sun and give flattering open shade. On busy streets we pick quieter moments; the exact time depends on the permit, and we plan it with you when you book.
- Early morning: emptier streets and soft light on the façades.
- Late afternoon: golden tones on stone and stucco.
- Season: May to October we plan around the heat and afternoon downpours; the rest of the year the weather usually cooperates.
What to wear in Coral Gables
The façades are pale and warm, so defined colors and European-style looks work beautifully.
- Midi or linen dresses in white, navy, olive or red.
- For him: light dress trousers, a linen shirt or an unstructured blazer.
- Simple accessories: a hat, sunglasses or a bag that says something about you.
- Comfortable shoes: the session is a walk with several stops.
