They met in grade school and remained friends throughout high school. College came and went and then they ran into each other again… the rest was history!  We spent a fun evening in La Jolla enjoying the big surf and the beautiful weather that San Diego loves to offer!

Photography sessions are always as unique and special as the families and children I photograph. It is so much fun when families are willing to trust me to get them to fabulous locations – even it means a stair workout, rock climbing, rope climbing, and a little bit of cold ocean water to cool them off. Although beautiful locations are a fun backdrop, they are just a bonus to the love and laughter a family brings to the session. It’s always my goal for a family to stop worrying about the “perfect shot” and instead to create an environment that will lead us to the perfect image.

I met this wonderful family of five – yes, Dakota is part of the family – when our little ones were still in preschool at Sandy Hill Nursery School in Solana Beach. After many carpool rides to and fro, the kids have now moved on to different schools, but we stay in touch and keep tabs on all the latest adventures.  We had a wonderful session incorporating a little bit of “green” up on the cliffs of Del Mar, CA at Powerhouse Park and then moved down to a beautiful sunset beach photography session where the girls showed me some of their talented dance moves. Dakota did fantastic both as part of the images and while she sat next to me with her leash around my ankle — while I photographed the rest of her family all the while hoping she wouldn’t find any of the dogs passing by more interesting then hanging out with me!
