There are so many things about a coastal session in the fall or wintertime. Crowds are down, cozy sweaters, vibrant blues, windy days, fog, seagulls, all the things. We originally wanted this session at the Salk Institute, but we couldn’t quite make schedules align to get there during open visitor hours. This turned out to […]

Here are some ideas to not only level up, but personalize your photo session! Your gallery should be unique, just like you!

Karen & Anthony tied the knot in Fallbrook, CA at Tivoli Italian Villa on a beautiful November Friday surrounded by the most fun group of friends and family!

Tequila shots & macarons are the summer combo you didn’t know you needed. This Laguna Beach bridal session was straight out of a summer dream.

Inspired by sunshine and chamomile, bare feet and 70s style! Emma and Taelor were so awesome to work with, and they are due any day now!! Baby P is one lucky kiddo, hope you love this “feels like summertime” session 🙂

Kayla & Sean and I bounced around Balboa Park between Spanish Village, the Cactus Garden & the Rose Garden. This is a great place to take photos (especially if you’re pregnant and not wanting to walk for miles!) because there’s just so much in this one small area. K & S are from the East […]
