With the holidays just around the corner we have started to book up with clients who are looking for gorgeous and unique family portraits for holiday cards. The Sawhney family came to us for just that reason and were thrilled with the final results of their photoshoot. We began portraits down at Cardiff state beach…Jaxon and Jayden were FULL of energy and turned out to be total hams in front of the camera! We love the after sunset shots of the whole family on the rocks, the light is just so sweet about 10 minutes after the sun sets.

September 25, 2011The Morris Family | Portraits at home
September 25, 2011The Morris family walked into our studio one Sunday morning after visiting the farmers market across from our studio on Cedros (it’s great you should check it out if you haven’t already!) Once they saw the images in our studio they decided they needed to have a family portrait made and invited us to their home and the 3 acres it sits on. We spend the day creating beautiful images inside their house and then headed out to the tennis court and citrus orchard a litte later in the day. One of our favorite shots from the night is of Steve with the family chicken and his beautiful Aston Martin DB9.

April 29, 2011The Brown Family | Baby Morgan
April 20, 2011Sherry and Micheal needed updated photographs of their 9 month old daughter Morgan and decided to have them taken here in our studio in Solana Beach. It was the first oppurtunity we had to use our beautiful new hand painted backdrop and we love how the images turned out! Morgan was such a sweet little baby who didn’t fuss at all but made us work VERY hard to get a smile out of her (All of the adults had to do funny dances and finally she cracked a smile!) It was so nice to meet the Brown family and we are looking forward to showing them the beautiful images from their studio session tomorrow!
In the past, our referral program has offered prints for any FUTURE photography, but this special event allows you to get more of the images you love from PREVIOUS photography!
Here is how it works:
Refer your friends and if they book ANY portrait session in the month of April (we don’t need to shoot it then, we just need to book it), you receive one of the following from any PREVIOUS portrait session, wedding or event:
One 20″ fine art print
or
One 11×14″ and two 5×7″ fine art prints
or
Four 8×10″ fine art prints
(Of the same image, includes all retouching and enhancements)
Refer any three friends, and in addition to the prints above, receive the HIGH RESOLUTION DIGITAL FILES from any previous portrait session, wedding or event.
As a kicker, we’ll throw in an 8×10″ fine art print for each of your referrals!
Contact your friends and let them know—this event ends April 30, 2011!

The Boehm Family
March 23, 2011The Boehm family came into our studio while on vacation and asked if we would be able to photograph them before they left to go home. We planned a last minute photoshoot the day before they left and met them at the beach near their condo in Solana Beach. The day started out beautiful but as soon as we arrived to the shoot it started to drizzle…luckily for us its days like those, that allow us to create something unique and beautiful (we aren’t afraid of a little rain!) Between camera clicks we took cover underneath some nearby stairs and we ended up with some very fun and adorable photographs. Addison was such a trooper during the photoshoot and really didn’t seem to mind the rain. It was such a pleasure to meet the Boehm Family and we hope they’ll visit the studio again on their next trip to “sunny” San Diego.
The Knapp kids are back!
March 23, 2011Remember the Knapp family? You can see images from their photoshoot last year HERE . Sarah brought the kids back in this year to capture some images of the two kids together and of Bryans missing two front teeth. We had a blast in the studio and couldn’t believe how much Bryan and Carolyn have grown since 2010. We love our “clients for life” who really understand the importance of capturing important moments in their family history. Sarah and Jason plan on having us photograph their children throughout their life and we even talked about shooting Carolyns wedding someday….not anytime soon though, she isn’t even a teen yet!
Roanne & Chris
February 25, 2011Roanna and Chris came to us a couple of weeks ago to have some portraits taken at dog beach in Del Mar. When we asked them the purpose of having these photos taken and they simply told us that they were in love and wanted to capture this moment in their lives together. That was a good enough reason for us so we headed out to dog beach for a beautiful sessions with Chris and Roanne, who is a former model for Helmut Newton (a very famous photographer in the 50’s and 60’s). The session ended with the couple dancing on the beach as the sun set.
