Sean and Ana had a beautiful surprise proposal at Balboa Park. Sean proposed to Ana on a bench in the beautiful Alcazar Garden. Sean secretly had a friend bring pillows and wine. They sat down on the bench and talked for a while and I tried to act busy. Balboa Park is one of the...
Brooke chose a beach in San Diego, specifically Crystal Pier, for her senior portraits pacific beach style. I knew we were about to make something really special. I consider it a total privilege—and a little bit of magic—to photograph young women in that wild, beautiful moment between childhood and adulthood. Senior year is this blur...
It is my belief that engagement photos should be a fun experience. Steph and Ryan are the perfect example of how to let go and have fun during an engagement session! Ryan is from San Diego but he and Stephanie currently live in Northern California so they decided to do an engagement session while they...
Senior portrait photographers —yes, that’s me, and yes, I was absolutely thrilled to work with Ava, a powerhouse in pointe shoes with a head full of ambition and sunlight. This girl? She’s not just stepping into her senior year; she’s strutting into it with intention. Ava knows who she is and isn’t afraid to show...
San Diego Lifestyle Photographer here—and let me tell you, the Nollens family showed up ready to play. This crew of six? A total vibe. We spent the afternoon chasing waves, climbing rocks, and letting the kids go full wild-child (as they should). Their boys were adorable and completely charmed my camera—serious little naturals. No stiff...
Best San Diego photographer? I get why you’d hesitate. With every phone now doubling as a high-tech camera, it’s tempting to think, “Why hire someone when I’ve got this baby in my pocket?” And hey, I love a good DIY moment as much as the next person. But when it comes to capturing your whole...
Coronado Beach is one of my favorite spots to photograph families on the beach.

They were celebrating their parent’s 50th wedding anniversary and wanted to check off this bucket list item for the...
San Diego beach photographer here, reporting for baby birthday cuteness duty: What better way to celebrate your baby turning one than by taking them to the beach for a sun-soaked beach photo session that captures everything from their squishy cheeks to their cake-smashing skills? This little mermaid just hit the big O-N-E, and I got...
Do you have a mermaid lover in your house? Yes, mermaid. It might sound ridiculous, frivolous, or even just plain silly but those who consider themselves mermaids are just true water lovers at heart! It is a hobby that anyone can join, regardless of age, size or gender. Plus, it’s actually great exercise, especially for your core...
As your friendly family vacation photographer La Jolla, I can tell you: this city is begging to be documented. I’ve lived here for over 20 years—moved from Pennsylvania and never looked back—and San Diego still surprises me. One minute, it’s golden hour and pelicans are photobombing your sunset. The next? The tide rolls out and...
As one of those San Diego family photographers who has seen every shade of navy under the sun, I can tell you this: warm tones are a breath of fresh, salty air. Seriously, if I had a dollar for every family that showed up in cool blues and whites, I could probably buy a beach...

The Bonneville family flew in from Pennsylvania with sand between their toes and a dream: finally getting those picture-perfect beach family photos they’d been talking about for years.
