{Make-A-Wish ~ San Diego | Hotel Del Coronado}

One of my favorite things and also the biggest blessing with my photography is when I get a chance to give back. I had the amazing experience to partner with a team of photographers to offer Family Portrait sessions to over 30 Make-A-Wish Families! 

Make-A-Wish San Diego set up shop right on the beach in front of the Hotel Del and each family came and was paired with a photographer to complete their 20min mini session! 

The day was just an overwhelmingly humbling experience to meet these families and find out some of what their children are facing and also what their 'Wishes' were and if they had been granted yet! 

More on that in the future but I have to say that this was one of the best experiences I have had so far with using my gifts for good and blessing others in the process! I hope these photos will be a sweet reminder of our time together and your families and your children will be in my heart and prayer for a lifetime!

Carson and His Family!

This is such a cute shot with Bella bc all her siblings were behind me coaxing her to smile! Mission Accomplished! 

{Coronado Family Photography~Beach Boy}

My recent photo shoot at the beach in Coronado was so much fun with this little guy! We got some wonderful shots of him totally in his element and just having the best time splashing in the water and playing at the beach which is his favorite place;) 

He was full of energy as most 2 1/2 year olds are and he gave me a workout chasing him around but you can see that these shots are going to bring back some really special memories of him when he was small and his love for the beach! Thankfully for this kid he is blessed to live in one of the most lovely locations imaginable in my opinion to enjoy it!! 

~Enjoy~

Someone is excited to be at his favorite spot at the beach!

I had to do this one in black and white... Just loved his little somber look:) 

Love this one

He is seriously pointing to the water because Mommy and I had been promising water for smiles! haha

Such a gorgeous sunset it turned out to be! 

Love the reflection in the glassy sand, the sun, and the movement!  

Pure happiness

The sun was setting and we got this with the last little light~ Happy Boy

{San Diego Family Photography~Coronado Island overlooking Downtown San Diego}

I don't know whether I choose family photography or it choose me but I have been so blessed to meet so many amazing families and capture some very special memories which I am so thankful for.

This shoot, as with each one that I do; becomes part of my life for several weeks while I am pouring over their pictures, selecting their gallery images, and then lastly editing their final selections. Without fail I fall in love with each family and see the beauty of their relationship to each other as a family unit.

 This family choose a great little hidden park located on Coronado Island that overlooks beautiful downtown San Diego that I just love. 

With their adorable little baby boy and their spunky little girl we had a great time together climbing trees, picking flowers, and capturing these memories for this sweet family! 

All the best to your family and enjoy! 

We loved this nearby door and used it in the shoot! 

Love this moment with Daddy who he looks just like!

Big Sister and baby Brother;0)

Daddy picked her this flower and she loved it! 

This was one of my favorite candids;)

Very cute pose!

The happy couple and the San Diego skyline

Final shot of the day! 

{20 Year Anniversary at the Hotel Del~ Coronado Island Photography}

~20 Years Together~

Alan and Carrie have been married 20 Years which is a pretty amazing milestone that I had the privilege to capture for them. Alan and Carrie reside in Arizona and every year they vacation at The Hotel Del in Coronado where they originally honeymooned to celebrate! That is where I come in;) Last year I was doing a photo shoot in Coronado and a couple comes by on their beach cruisers and asks if I have a card which unlike usual I did;) Fast forward to this year I get a call and schedule their shoot knowing they are from out of town but it wasn't until after we were done that I asked how they found me to do their session and we connected the dots that they were 'that couple'; and we all had a really good laugh and it made for a great story! 

They also shared that when they were married all those years ago their photographer who shot their wedding took the money bolted and they never received any images of they're wedding day! 

{GASP...Can you even imagine...}

So needless to say this was a very special and meaningful shoot for so many reasons not the least of which is that this couple is so sweet and amazing and have stood by each other for 20 years. 

All the best to you both and here is to 20 more years of love, health, and happiness! 

{Nichole and Jack~Coronado Family Photography}

I have to say that I feel like sometimes our life experiences draw us and connect us to people in a deeper way. Nichole has got to be one of the most selfless, giving, and kind people I have ever met. She is also a single mother raising an amazing little guy which I have no words to say how much I admire her for what a great mother she is. I have a soft spot for Single Mother's because I can relate to how challenging and at times overwhelming it can be to raise children on your own. My time as a single mother was very complex in so many ways and keeping the balance of everything while facing stressors and providing for your child not only financially but being strong for them mentally, physically, and emotionally can never be explained unless you have been their. 

All that to say, Nichole has been by far the most amazing examples of strength, grace, and resolve to provide an exceptionally well balanced life for Jack. She is always putting him first and all the while pursuing her degree; taking on a full college course load, and maintaing a stellar GPA to establish an even brighter future. 

I can not express how proud I am to call Nichole a friend. Her southern charm, infectious smile, and joy for life as well as Jack's come through in these photos that we got a chance to do when she came back to San Diego! It was wonderful to capture these moments with you both!
