sweet family

oceanside pier has become one of our favorite places, there are so many cool places to play and take pictures. we met the sweet family there on sunday morning bright and early, but it was already pretty warm and sunny, so we had to try and find the shade. here are some of our faves from the shoot, could charlie be any cuter?









happy holidays!!!

duva family

it was another beautifully sunny november day at the hotel del coronado when we met the duva family for some holiday photos. we were super excited when luke showed up ready for pictures, with a huge smile from ear to ear. he usually likes to be a bit more coy with the camera, but not while daddy is around. here are our faves from the session...

stolz family

we met jill and her family at the hotel del coronado for a fun family portrait session. i was thrilled when the kids showed up with smiles on, ready for the camera. we started in front of the hotel, then made our way to the beach for the kids to play in the sand. who would have thought it was going to be bright sun and 80 degrees early in the morning in november? here are our faves from the shoot, check out the gorgeous eyes on the kids...
