Location Information
Kate Sessions Park
Here are all the details for this hilltop park in Pacific Beach!
Meeting Place
We’ll meet near the restrooms by the parking lot at Kate Sessions Park, 5115 Soledad Road in Pacific Beach. The park sits up on the hill, so you’ll see Mission Bay, Pacific Beach and downtown spread out below us. Use the Google directions link below to find the lot.
Parking
Park in the lot off Soledad Road, right next to where we’ll meet. The park gets busy around sunset, so give yourself a few extra minutes to find a spot.
Bring
If you have young children, bring a snack and special treat (aka bribe). Please plan to keep all belongings in one bag to save time.
What to Wear
Please refer to my styling guide. I will email you the password to access Style & Select.
Shoes, etc.
Most of the park is grass, and some of it is on a slope, so heels tend to sink in. Wear something comfortable for walking and bring your dressier shoes for the photos.
Dinner Options
If you’d like to grab dinner or dessert after your session, Pacific Beach is just down the hill, with lots of fun spots along Garnet Avenue.
If you’re a history buff like me, you might like knowing the park is named for Kate Sessions, the horticulturist known as the Mother of Balboa Park.
