Coronado Island has a way of holding on to family stories. For Melissa’s family, this beach already carried a sweet memory: the last time they were here, she was expecting their daughter. Coming back with two beach-loving kids made this visit extra meaningful.
The C family vacations in San Diego every year in the same beach house right on the ocean . . . but this year was different! Cori and her husband welcomed the very first grandchild, and little Camille is the undeniable star of the show!
I was honored that Susan, a fellow photographer, contacted me for a very important session for her family. It was her dad’s dream to do a once-in-a-lifetime trip with the entire family—something they weren’t able to do growing up—and to create memories the grandkids would remember forever.
Pat and Kristina are San Diego locals who decided it was time for a family portrait session after welcoming their third child, Stella. Kristina wanted beautiful photos of all three kids and the family together, and the complete family shot ended up being her favorite.
When families come back year after year, it’s one of the greatest compliments I can receive. This favorite family has been trusting me with their memories since 2016, back when their oldest was just a toddler.
Crystal and Sam love the Hotel del Coronado, and they had a longtime dream of bringing their three boys there on vacation. They waited patiently for the boys to be the right age and the hotel renovations to be complete, and this was finally the time!
This fall, Chris and Ana brought their family from the Houston area to Southern California to visit Disneyland and the San Diego Zoo, and they squeezed in a beach session at the Hotel del Coronado.
It’s not every day the dad is the one who books the photo session, but that’s exactly how this one came about! These Texans from Austin were planning a California getaway and invited Lauren’s parents to join, since her mom had been “trying to get to California since the 7th grade.”
Each year, Nina’s company, Intention 2 Impact, chooses a different city for its annual team retreat . . . always aiming to capture the local vibe through a focused photo session.
There are certain family sessions you don’t forget, and the first session I did with the Hicks family is one. It was just Stacy, her husband Mack, and their toddler daughter Eloise, and we were hiding from the sun on a cloudless day at their home on La Jolla Shores.
Hanna and her family returned to the Del exactly five years after she and her husband honeymooned there. They had a COVID wedding . . . an intimate ceremony at Sunset Cliffs, small and beautiful. This visit to the Del was a whole different story! They’ve added two beautiful girls to their family.
Active-duty military, Tiavonna has traveled far and wide, calling many cities home along the way. Her daughter Brielle was even born in Japan! But San Diego still has her heart.
