Senior portraits on the beach? He wasn’t thrilled. But Mom? Over the moon. Will showed up like a lot of high school seniors do—with a surfboard under one arm and a “do I really have to do this?” look on his face. He wasn’t exactly jumping for joy about getting his senior photos taken. In...
As the beach photographer, I had the pleasure of working with the Smith family, from Arizona. They brought their mom along and wanted to take advantage of their trip by getting two things accomplished. 1. a family portrait session in San Diego, and 2. visit Disneyland. We decided to do the beach session at a...
It’s an honor to have the opportunity to document the growth and milestones of the Sangcap family through photography.

In the heart of sunny San Diego — where their love story first began — Caleb and Katie returned for a Thanksgiving weekend packed with purpose. What looked like a casual walk down memory lane quickly turned into one of the most photogenic surprise proposals I’ve ever had the honor of photographing. Caleb had secretly...
The holidays are more than just mistletoe and matching pajamas—they’re about slowing down, soaking in the moments, and capturing the magic while your kids still (kind of) think you’re cool. For one San Diego family of five, that magic has taken the form of an annual beach photoshoot, a tradition that’s become as cherished as...
Love stories have a unique way of filling our hearts with warmth, and the story of Joe and Allegra’s engagement is one that brought a smile to everyone’s face who witnessed it.

Candid family portraits on the beach in La Jolla? Yes, please. Give me windblown hair, sandy toes, and unposed giggles any day of the week. That’s where the magic lives. I’ve had the absolute joy (and yes, I mean that in the most non-corny way possible) of photographing this sweet family for over six years...
1. Do Your Homework: You wouldn’t marry someone after a Tinder swipe, right? Same goes for a professional photography session. Dive into their portfolios, stalk their Instagram, and see if their vibe matches yours. I’m all about beach lifestyle photography – think candid moments, genuine laughter, and sun-kissed goodness. If that’s your jam, we’re probably...
