Every day in the early fall, the Coronado sunset sun creeps closer to the end of Point Loma, and I watch as the real change in seasons edges closer. San Diego summers last and last, and some of my favorite “summer” sessions happen in September and October, when the light is still warm and glowy and the empty beaches make a perfect backdrop for a fun session like this. The first photograph that beautiful evening was taken before I even met my sweet clients! As I arrived at our meeting place, they were checking out a sandy hill. I quickly took this candid silhouette shot, which became one of their favorites—and mine.

These little girls love each other, and it shows! I had so much fun seeing their family interact during this Petit session on the beach at Coronado, and I hope to see them again sometime soon!!

Some kids love the beach. Some kids don’t. This little one was ALL ABOUT it! He was so excited to explore the waves and get wet, wet, wet! Nothing stopped him! I loved his enthusiasm and zest for life. We should all be a little more like him.

This big extended family and I have gotten together every summer since 2014 for their annual portrait session! The kids are getting older and, to be honest, a whole lot easier to photograph! Here’s their 2017 session, for comparison’s sake!
This year I was so happy to see a giant cloud covering the sun, creating perfect portrait light with the Hotel Del in the background! We have squeezed in a few hotel shots at the end of some of our sessions in previous years, but this was a whole different opportunity, and I loved it. While I grabbed the posed family shots in front of the Del, Everin got individual portraits and less formal shots, resulting in the usual gigantic gallery combining traditional posed images and candids. Then, to end everything off, the sunset was incredible!
