Senior Portraits at Navy Lodge on Coronado | Amy Gray Photography

January 22, 2019

My “normal” location at the Hotel del Coronado can get pretty busy right after Christmas, and I had some reservations about shooting there that week, especially when I found out that this family had lots of special memories up the coast a bit, at the Navy Lodge on Coronado. We decided to shoot there, instead, and what a great choice it was! Although we were FREEZING COLD, these Arizona natives put on a happy face, and we all enjoyed the beautiful sunset and 100% empty beach.

Extended Family San Diego Beach Portraits | Amy Gray Photography

January 14, 2019

This extended family traveled from far and wide to all be in San Diego over the holidays, and I loved watching them make memories on the beach. The cousins might not see each other very often, but they sure know how to have fun when they’re together.

The Christmas tree was going up inside the hotel, and preparations for the ice skating rink were being made, but the temperatures were warm, the sun was up, the clouds were perfect, the shore was flat and clean, and reflection shots were the order of the day! This looks like a summer session, doesn’t it?

Usually I try to whittle down my blog posts to a reasonable number, but this family just made it too hard. I *loved* their Christmassy-festive session, and I feel so honored that they chose me to capture this very important time in their lives. Dad’s going to be gone for a long time, leaving behind his sweet wife, adorable daughter, and brand-new baby boy. These photos will be cherished in his absence, as he serves our country. I could only think that God honored his sacrifice . . . and theirs . . . with a beyond-beautiful sunset.

San Diego Birthday Photos at the Beach | Amy Gray Photography

November 9, 2018

This young dad had the perfect idea for his daughter’s birthday gift . . . a beach photo session during their stay in San Diego. She arrived as beautiful as could be, and while we concentrated on getting beautiful birthday portraits, Dad got in on the action as well, and I loved the dad-and-daughter shots!

When Kimber contacted me for a session, I knew her name sounded familiar! I searched my old emails, and there it was . . . her family had used our family’s babysitting agency, Sitterwise, several years ago! It was great to get to meet Kimber and her family in person after working with them years before, and I wondered if she had found me through Sitterwise. Nope! She just did an old-fashioned Google search for beach photography. It was fun to share the connection with her as we ran around beautiful Coronado beach and made some sweet memories for her family. It’s a small world!

If you follow my Instagram, you already know how I loved getting to photograph this little girl! She was sweet, rambunctious, and adorable, and although her crazy antics kept me completely ON MY TOES the entire session, her bright smiles lit up the beach that night! From careening around the shiny shore to jumping on top of a used-to-be-sandcastle, with two hands full of mud, she was filled with joy and curiosity – just like a toddler should be.

Mallory came all the way from Michigan for her senior session on Coronado beach, and she brought her family to join in the fun. The bright and clear day was the perfect backdrop for her fresh, authentic personality. She was really fun to work with!
