Coronado proposal photographer here, reporting from one of the best-kept secrets for popping the question in San Diego: the sand dunes near the Hotel Del Coronado. It was one of those mostly cloudy evenings where the sky looked dramatic in the best way—like nature was quietly setting the stage. Anthony had a plan. Allison had...
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...
1. Chill the heck out (yes, really). You’re not auditioning for “America’s Next Top Couple.” This is not the time for forced prom poses and panicked smiles. Your San Diego beach engagement photos should feel like a rom-com blooper reel—goofy grins, wind-in-your-hair moments, and all the unfiltered, unscripted stuff in between. Let your love show...
She thought it was just a casual beach stroll in La Jolla. A beautiful walk by the ocean, some dinner, champagne tucked in the bag, and of course — photos. Because if there’s one thing she adores (besides her now-fiancé), it’s taking pictures in beautiful places. Especially in San Diego, where the beach always shows...
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’re looking for San Diego beach photographers who will capture you in full wedding-day glow—but without the chaos of an actual wedding day—hi, it’s me! I don’t photograph weddings anymore (been there, done that, got the stress-induced gray hairs), but I will absolutely document your post-married magic in a chill, one-hour beach session, like...
When Macie’s mom told me she wanted her senior portraits to stand out, I was all in. She wasn’t looking for the typical Colorado mountain vibe (even though, let’s be real, those are gorgeous too). No, she wanted something completely different, something that screamed senior year adventure. Enter: San Diego Senior Portrait Photographer, the beach,...
As a San Diego beach photographer, I get to step into some pretty cool moments. This one? Hunt family photos in La Jolla, CA. Total full-circle moment. The Hunts are from Arizona and basically have a long-term love affair with San Diego. They vacation here all the time. Years ago, they had engagement photos on...
Some families book a session, we take some beautiful photos, and that’s that. But then there are families like the Sangcaps, who let me capture their biggest milestones year after year. And let me tell you, as their La Jolla Family photographer, documenting their journey from engaged lovebirds to a full-blown, multi-generational family has been...
As a San Diego family photographer, I get to capture all kinds of family moments—big, small, and everything in between. But when the Maund family booked a session with me, I knew this one was extra special. First of all, they brought their PUPPY! and their 10-year-old lab, Stryker. (Yes, all caps worthy.) Because we...
Prom night: the glitz, the glam, the last-minute panic over boutonnières. But before Juliahna and Kai hit the dance floor, they took a little detour—to the breathtaking shores of La Jolla, where they met me, a San Diego beach photographer. And let’s be real, there’s no better backdrop for pre-prom magic than golden cliffs, crashing...
Andrew and Crystal run. A lot. Their go-to route? A park in La Jolla, right in Bird Rock. It’s their spot. Their routine. And, as of one perfect evening, also the site of their San Diego proposal. Here’s how it went down: Andrew had a plan. A sneaky, sentimental, full-circle kind of plan. His brother...
