The Sinitsyn Family is one of my favorite clients. They come to me year after year after year. Adding a new family member to the mix has made it even more fun. They show up ready to play every time! The oldest daughter Daphne is not one to be contained so her and I run...
Over 10 years ago, I started my career photographing weddings. Tammy and Jillian were among the early weddings as a full time wedding photographer. Since then, they started a little family with the birth of Orion. We headed out to Coronado, near the Hotel Del Coronado, for some candid photos on the beach. This stretch...
As life ebbs and flows so do relationships. The Walker Family was estranged for years but the timing was finally right for them all to come back together for a beautiful vacation on the sands of San Diego. The matriarch of the family really wanted to make an indelible mark by capturing the love and...
The Circuit Family was so much fun to photograph. Each member of the family is full of personality. Stacy, the mom, is an entrepreneur herself. She shares a business called The Dress Diggers, where she and two colleagues share deals on modest dresses they find. She wore one of these adorable dresses for portraits on...
So here’s the thing, as a San Diego photographer, I can put you in a beautiful location. I can also light you with stunning sunlight. I can (sometimes) get your kids to giggle. But what I can’t do is bring out your love for one another. I can’t make it look like you enjoy each...
This family knows how to do family portraits the right way! They come year after year, from Arizona, for vacation beach photography and this time we settled on the beach in Coronado again. I love how playful they are by bringing paper stick heads for family members who weren’t able to make it! Things like...
Family vacations in San Diego are the best time for photographs! The Lowe family traveled to San Diego for some fun and beach portraits in Mission Beach. They were staying nearby, so a short walk was all that was needed. I strongly encourage my guests to goof off, give piggy back rides and lots of...
Not everyone signs up for the photoshoot. But they’ll thank you later.Real talk: half the time, I’m not even photographing willing participants. As your go-to vacation photographer San Diego, I’ve seen it all — bribes, threats, promises of ice cream and screen time. (Whatever works. No judgment… OK, maybe a little.) But let’s hit pause...
The Miller family was visiting from out of town for a baseball tournament. Kristin and her husband have three sons who are incredible athletes, and apparently that allows them to travel because of it. I was excited to hear that Kristin is also a portrait photographer back home. It’s always fun to photograph someone who...
This little boy right here, this little nugget was all smiles throughout the entire one hour session. Maybe he is innately happy but maybe it was because I didn’t make him pose for any of the photos, too. I understand that children and babies have very short attention spans and it’s my job to make...
I love when families get together and agree that family portraits are important to them. They know leaving a legacy to their children is worth an hour of their time. We all strolled along the La Jolla rocks at low tide. This La Jolla coastline is always my favorite backdrop. Between the blue waters, the...
