This must be one of the busiest months of the year for HS Seniors with college app due dates coming up! I know my senior is on this track and it’s not lost on me how this year will go by SO FAST!
While I’m in the middle of photographing families for the holidays, NOW’S the time to be thinking about booking your senior session. Like you, I’m thinking about getting the last “formal”’photos of them before they go off in the world.
It may very well be the last set we get!

Christmas is in a couple of weeks and all of a sudden it will be graduation season!
Get a head start and book your HS Senior session soon!
Availability will be limited as we dodge 🌧️ and chase the ☀️ in the spring.
•
Just remember though…it’s all about YOU during your session.
Bring me the outfits, the drama, the looks, I’m here for it!
This is the time to show off your confidence, your radiance, your own personalities.

As we settle into our SoCal winter, this gives me a chance to share my favorite images from this season’s Fall minis!
•
I am so grateful to see long-time friends turned clients every year or two and can’t help my excitement capturing their family grow and change over the years. We become wiser and kids get taller and more and more confident in the space they take up.
I am so proud and thankful to be a part of your lives in this small way and don’t take these opportunities for granted.
I’ve known this sweet family for 15 years when we met in the Baby Bootcamp days…feels like yesterday and forever ago all at once.

Are you ready?!
We are officially a month away from Christmas!
One of my favorite holiday decorations is printing a couple of my faves from my gallery and framing them as part of my holiday decorations.
How do you share your images?
•
I loved meeting this family as it seemed like we should have met a while ago! I realized we had common friends and am so thankful she was referred to me!
They are as lovely in person as they are in these moments I captured.

ISO MAIN CHARACTERS!
Class of 2026 is coming in hot with glow up energy and I’m here for it.

Thrilled I had the opportunity to capture Noelani since I haven’t seen her in so long. Time flies and these kids are growing up to be so smart and confident.
It was a negative tide and the sky opened up giving a warm glow, the perfect backdrop for this HS Senior.
Wait for it…paragliders were not paid! ☺️

I haven’t posted in while as this really is the busiest time of year for photos and my home life. ☺️
But I couldn’t resist sharing a little sneak of some recent deliveries because October weather and sunsets have been amazing!
From San Juan Capistrano to south Laguna Beach, October quickly becomes my favorite month for photo sessions.

☀️Wasn’t the weather this weekend perfect?

Not only was the weather good, but I delivered a bunch of galleries last week from my first round of minis and love to hear from happy clients. 💛

✨The vibes at twilight are always unreal and this family delivered.

Can I also mention I’ve known this gorgeous couple for a very long time…dare I say we were all in college?! Different ones, but all together one summer in San Diego way back in the day. And today, well…things sure did work out better than we all imagined.
I, mean, look at the beautiful family they made?! Salt of the earth kind of people.
It’s hard not to gush and share their images from just a couple of Sundays ago.
Lucky me for getting to capture their 🌎.

Sunday’s GRWM as I posted up on a new spot in San Diego for mini sessions.
🌅 San Diego is my hometown, where my family lives, and where I started friendships over 20 years ago.
And what a treat it is for me to also have some of them as clients every year for over 10 years. To watch these families literally grow up right before my eyes is an honor and a privilege.
📸 Gonna share more sneak peeks of these minis as soon as I deliver galleries, so you get one for now! 😍

Mini sessions are perfect for families, couples, and HS SENIORS!
If your Senior needs photos sooner than Spring for yearbook deadlines, etc., this is the perfect time to get them done.
I have these fixed dates left or Anytime Mini Sessions open to book.

BTS as I capture an extended family session…their FIRST one ever!
🗓️ As you can imagine, coordinating schedules to get a whole cast together isn’t an easy feat. This family came in with excitement and so much ❤️ , making it easy to capture all the tender moments in between the big posed stuff.
🙏🏽 to @amycaptureslove for choosing me again and again for special moments like this.
