I love when people celebrate large occasions with portraits! Sara and David were married a year ago and came to San Diego to celebrate the milestone. Anniversary portraits were in order so we headed to my favorite beach on the planet in La Jolla, Ca. The jutting rocks, the tall palm trees and the waves...
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...
Some people you meet at the store, you smile politely, nod, and move on with your day. And then there’s Diego—the dog who made me drop everything, while running errands in La Jolla, because LOOK AT THAT FACE. This wasn’t just any dog. This was a dashing gentleman in a bow tie, strutting around like...
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...
It’s actually quite rare when someone inquires about senior portraits, especially this year with all thats been going on with the pandemic. I happily oblige (when legal) since I do all sorts of beach lifestyle photography. Whether you’re engaged, about to pop the question, a small family of 3 or large family of 20, I...
Joey and his parents visited San Diego RIGHT BEFORE the pandemic hit us. They drove from Phoenix, Az for a family vacation and to spend the afternoon on the beach with me. They make the annual trek and am glad they fit professional portraits into this trip. Not all teenage boys are willing to have...
Miriam was headed to San Diego, from New York, for a Mastermind. She is an accomplished artist, podcaster, teacher and even better business woman. I have never had so much fun photographing someone before! She was all IN for this photo shoot. She was BOLD, BRAVE and completely gave in to the process of having...
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...
Trying to keep 3 young boys interested in a photography session and dry, while playing right next to the ocean, is nearly impossible. But, if you let the boys be boys… genuine happiness ensues. We did a SPLASH SESSION with the Garcia family. Nearing the end of the family photoshoot, the family splashed and played...
My tagline for Elle G Photography is “Magazine Worthy Images For Everyday People” and this session couldn’t hold more true to that. The Ferry family makes the annual trek, during the hot summer months in Arizona, to San Diego for a little cool down. While they were here, they booked a family portrait session in...
Dogs just bring so much joy to our lives. This couples portrait session started out with two people and before we knew it, this adorable golden retriever decided to join in on beach engagement photos. Yep thats right, Madeline and Omar didn’t know the dog in the following photos but he was just so playful...
