san diego family photographer | holiday photos: drew and mackenzie

these kids are some of my favorites, not only are they absolutely adorable, but they always have the cutest outfits and the best smiles. these were taken down by petco park, for a little san diego urban flavor.

sassy sydney

by now it is probably clear that i am pretty much obsessed with my favorite little 4 year old, sydney. and she has grown to love the camera, which is awesome for me. here are a few of my favorite photos from the last several months....

first, a sassy shoot downtown by petco park...

then it was off to see some wildflowers down in pt loma, so cute and romantic...


a few months later, sydney wanted to model her halloween costume, plus show me all her disney princess dress-up outfits...

lastly, christmas photos, so sweet, and so sydney...

rae and alex: engaged!

rae and alex are another one of our couples who we just immediately clicked with, and we were so excited to shoot their engagement around downtown, since we don't get to do that as much as some other places. we met first down by the star of india, and they couldn't have looked more perfect...






next we headed down to the fish market and the midway museum to get a couple different harbor views, trying to avoid the nosy tourists, who i am sure thought we were shooting celebrities...

the light couldn't have been more perfect under these very cool trees, this is one of my favorites from the day, i love their happiness...

next it was over to petco park where we stood in awe at the new condo in left field and enjoyed the park mostly to ourselves



finally a quick stop under the gaslamp sign and a quick kiss in front of the trolley to finish the night--how many people can say they actually stopped traffic for their engagement session, so cool!






rae and alex, we are really looking forward to the wedding in january and having even more fun downtown!
