Sledding in Del Mar

Thursday | December 31st | 2009 –

Ok, not really sledding… the boys got these new boards for Christmas called Spooners. I think they are made here in San Diego.  I had just done a shoot (sneak peek coming soon) in Del Mar at the beach and the sand was pushed up into big steep hills.  Perfect for the boards.  And today is amazingly beautiful.  And I love the beach in December… love it.  So I pulled my “Please don’t make us do anything but lay around the house” older boys and the fun loving “i’ll go anywhere” Slater to the beach.  And this is what we did.

These were all shot with a little Sony cybershot… when you are used to full creative control with a very good camera, point and shoots kind of suck (and not really just kind of)

San Diego Family Beach Photographer | James, Laura & Kids, Carlsbad

Thursday | December 10th | 2009 –

I am actually kind of catching up… I think:)  It’s hard to tell sometimes because I get things done, it creates new things to be done.  It’s a revolving to-do list.  The 18th is my goal to have nothing left to ‘revolve’.

The beach is one of my favorite places in the winter.  Few people, cool air, amazing skies.  This session didn’t disappoint in the skies.  And this family didn’t disappoint either.  We have some beautiful images and I can’t wait until they get to see them all.

Where do I begin.  So many fun images.  Every shoot we do, it just gets better and better.  Of course the first shoot I botched (years and years and years ago;)… it was such a great shoot except for every shot being blurry.  So I kind of have no where to go but up.  I always have a great time photographing them.  And I just need Savvy to know that she has the most awesome hair in the whole world.  It’s like my dream hair.  I am serious Savvy.  And Teanna always looks awesome.  When I feel like I want to really put together an outfit, I think “how would Teanna do this”… that is no lie Teanna.  I totally do that.

Ok so let’s check out their family photos.  Teanna, whatever plan you had for your photo walls with our old sessions… throw them out.  How will you ever choose from just these:)  I think you need an addition on your house of just extra walls!

San Diego Beach Photographer | the Ostrem family, Mission Beach

Monday | October 12th | 2009 –

I love Mission Beach because I adore the alleys there and the beach is always fun too. But having both in one place is awesome.  I photographed this family last year and they have fab picture from our last session hanging high in the front window of Little Baby Bird Rock.  When the boys were two last year, they were a little shy with me.  This year???  Oh NO!  These two were so funny and full of giggles.  Loved every minute of photographing them.

The sun was not on our side this evening.  I actually don’t like the sun too much on shoots but I like it a little… and we had zero.  Despite that, we had a great time and ended up with some great shots.  We have tons of everyone all together but these are a few that caught my eye while editing.
