From Iron Mountain Trailhead to Hotel del Coronado, revisit nine years of family portraits with the Butler family and see how much these boys have grown.
Every year Carla and Brent book a family session wherever vacation takes them—this year that meant sunset on Coronado Beach with their two teens, straight from their Texas cattle ranch to the California sand.
Susie’s family has been coming to the Hotel Del for years, and this trip they wanted photos on the beach in front of it.
Teri grew up in Southern California and has been bringing her kids to this coastline for decades.
Fifteen people, three generations, and one narrow window to get everyone on the same beach. We met at South Ponto in Encinitas during a family vacation scheduled just before three members of the family moved to Thailand.
Trisha had been meaning to book family photos for four years, but life kept happening — and every year their photos ended up “in the dead grasses or springtime grass.”
The Nielsens have been summering in Coronado for 19 years — same beach bungalow, every June and July — and I’ve photographed them several times over the years.
Mark brought his three boys to San Diego for their first family session in years — and the first since becoming a single dad.
Matt reached out to book a family session during their visit to San Diego. When I asked what inspired it, he gave an answer every parent understands: families keep growing and changing, but photos hold onto each season.
Sarah’s family has been coming to Coronado for more than twenty years, and every year she said they should finally have professional photos taken. This was the year.
Some families come to San Diego for the zoo, the parks, the tacos. Donna’s family comes for one thing: the beach. When I asked what they did while they were in town, her answer was “Nothing but beach!” That’s my kind of vacation, too.
Bonnie’s parents are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary this year, and the family wanted to honor them with photos of the legacy they’ve built together . . . three generations, with everyone on the beach at once.
