    37.871517 -122.305084

  • This is for the third Photo Day this year. I attended this event last year and had a ton of fun. There is a lot of walking around and the weather changes from morning to afternoon, so wear comfortable shoes and be prepared to hike around a good bit.

    The morning portion is an orientation and a chance to shoot the morning workouts, then there was a break from about 10:30 to 1:00 when the real tour started. We were finished by about 3:30.


    Note that this event is hosted by the track. TICKETS MUST BE PURCHASED FROM THE TRACK. THEY USUALLY SELL OUT, SO BUY YOUR TICKETS ASAP. THE COST IS $27.95 (INCLUDING FEES)



    Purchase your all-access ticket here.










     

     

     

     

     

    Whether you're a pro or an amatuer, don't miss your chance to snap photos of the morning workouts, see the horses up-close, and get an all-access pass to Golden Gate Fields.
