Let’s face it—beach maternity photos can feel a little intimidating. You want to look glowing and goddess-like, but also… breathe. Sit down without popping a seam. Walk without adjusting a million things. And then there’s the fact that we’re doing this at the beach. You know, that magical place where the light is perfect but...
The Maurers are the kind of family that makes my job as a Coronado family photographer an absolute joy. Their little boy? A bundle of energy and pure charm. He was all about splashing in the waves, running through the sand, and exploring every corner of the beach, which made for the most natural, joy-filled...
As a San Diego maternity photographer, I live for moments like this—when everything aligns just right, from the soft ocean breeze to the glow of golden hour light. Chelsea showed up glowing in a ruffled blue dress, the kind that catches the curves just right. The golden light, the gentle waves, and her peaceful smile...
Some maternity photoshoots are full of sunshine and sparkle. Others? Overcast, quiet, and kind of perfect in their own moody way. Yesterday, I met up with Tom, Chelsea, and their dog Sandy for maternity photos in Coronado sand dunes—the ones that spell out “Coronado” from above (yes, it’s a thing). It’s just north of the...
If you look up “pregnancy goals” in the dictionary, you’ll probably find a picture of my friend Emily, to be exact. Athlete, San Diego local, and now, mom-to-be-extraordinaire. When she told me she was expecting her first baby, I didn’t just scream—I cheered. This kid is about to hit the family jackpot. So when it...
Alright, as a San Diego maternity photographer… of course I’m going to say YES! Let’s talk about why you should consider getting maternity photos. First off, they have a knack for capturing the sheer beauty of pregnancy. You know, that amazing glow and the way your body is transforming to nurture the little bun in...
La Jolla Beach Family Photography is what dreamy babymoon memories are made of. Just ask the McCrea family, who road-tripped from Palm Desert to San Diego for a little R&R… and a lot of sand between their toes. They booked a beach session in La Jolla to document life as a soon-to-be family of four...
Ah, what can I say about these two? They have been with me for a long time, originally hiring me to photograph their engagement session, then another engagement session underwater, and then eventually their wedding in San Diego. Now they are expecting a baby boy any day! I love to see families grow! Maria loves...
Photography freezes time and captures indelible moments. Pregnancy is the one time you get to assist God in a miracle and I think it’s worth photographing. This is Sabeen in full bloom ?, on the beach in Coronado, with her little family. They were vacationing in San Diego before the baby is born so they...
What an honor to be referred by past clients! I love when that happens. Kristin is friends with Tammy and Jillian, who also had a portrait session on the beach in Coronado. Kristin and Mark danced and cuddled while walking along the shores near the Hotel Del Coronado, for their maternity photos. It’s one of...
Framed by blue sky that stretches from horizon to horizon and the endless expanse of the mighty Pacific, the beach provides the perfect dramatic backdrop for a family portrait. With sun, waves, and breezes, the beach is nothing like the average tame photo studio. You’re out in the elements, baby! So keep these simple suggestions...
