San Diego Family Photographer at Oceanside Mission San Luis Rey
San Diego Family Photographer in Oceanside, CA. How cute is this family? I was so honored that Heather asked me to do her family photos! Heather is one of San Diego’s amazing wedding photographers. I was just so excited to take these photos. We did the shoot at the Oceanside Mission San Luis Rey. I haven’t shot here in years and it was so perfect! I love all the doors, Spanish style architecture and cactus! If you haven’t been there it is also a beautiful place to just go and walk around. I had a blast getting to know this beautiful family. The boys are just so adorable can you believe their eyes! Wow heartbreakers already! Here are a few of my favorites from this fun holiday family photo shoot in San Diego.READ POST »
San Diego Family Photographer at Old Poway Train Park
I love what I do!! I have photographed these kids from newborns till now every year! The oldest ones are 8. I am so lucky to know the most amazing families! This one just happens to be some of our closest friends. They are pretty much family to us!! This year we did their family photos at Old Poway Train Park. I love this park it is almost like it was built for photographers. There are so many cool spots to take photos at. Actually endless possibilities. The boys loved that there are cool old trains to look at touch and even ride. It was so special that all three grandmas could be there for this photo shoot as well. I just hope they aren’t mad at me…I might have said to the boys you did so good I think you should get ice cream for breakfast. A few hours later I saw a photo on facebook that all the kids did eat a big ice cream Sunday for breakfast. So funny!! But at least we got some smiles! Here are some of my favorites from the shoot.READ POST »
Circle Oak Ranch Wedding Photos of Shannon and Darin
How awesome is this ranch wedding? We love shooting at Circle Oak Ranch in Fallbrook. It is just such a special wedding venue. Where else in San Diego can you get married under the most beautiful Oak tree? And the grounds are just stunning photo spots every where you turn. The owners of this ranch live there and I have to say two of the nicest people you will ever meet. They are so hands on making sure every vendor and guest is taken care of from start to finish. They really know how to run a wedding venue and make it special. Ok, now to Shannon and Darin! We had such a blast getting a peak into their amazing lives. Shannon is just so sweet and had 10 of her best girlfriends surrounding her as her bridesmaids to make this day so fun. Darin was the life of the party along with his 11 groomsmen. I think my favorite moment was walking into the grooms room for getting ready photos and Darin was practicing his vows and couldn’t even get through the practice round without crying. I loved it!
Here are the awesome vendors that made this day so special

Wayfarers Chapel Wedding with Katrina and Brandon
Wow, is all that comes to mind when I talk about this perfect wedding of Katrina and Brandon. First of all this couple is just so beautiful inside and out. On top of that they picked the most gorgeous venues for the ceremony,photos and the reception. The day started with Katrina and Brandon getting ready at the church. Well, Wayfarers isn’t your average church. This one is probably the most pretty churches I have ever seen. It is set on a cliff in Palos Verdes. The whole church is glass set in these huge gorgeous trees. Needless to say the photos are stunning! After the ceremony we were off to three photo stops that the couple had scouted out. The first was to the famous Terranea Resort. We walked down to the ocean and the cliffs with the full bridal party. I have to say Katrina is the most adventurous bride we have ever had. She pretty much rock climbed with Brandon, Bruce and I to get this awesome shot. I was so excited! After this we made a quick stop at the Palos Verdes Heritage Castle Museum. This entrance has the most dramatic gates. How could we not stop for a quick photo. Then we were off to the Trump National Golf Course. I probably don’t have to say again stunning course with amazing ocean views. After these three amazing photo stops we were all of to the reception at the Five Crown Restaurant in Corona Del Mar. This reception was the perfect combination of elegant and an awesome party. Brandon and his friends I have to say are the most amazing dancers!READ POST »
