San Diego Family Photographer

I was so excited when Michelle reached out to me for her family photos! We hit it off immediately, and she suggested the most gorgeous location for their session! By the way – I still can’t believe I get to officially call myself a San Diego Family Photographer!  Michelle is sweet, and caring – and has the patience of a saint! Her husband, Phil is so down to earth, and such a cool dad. They truly are the most chill parent goals for when Chris and I are ready to have kids – someday! 😉

 

The Boys

Their sweet little Boys Aiden and Grayson are so sweet and very silly. I joked that this sessions was the epitome of the phrase  “ALL boy!”  They told me funny jokes and showed me their super hero moves. You could say we became fast friends. Michelle is also a photographer, so she made sure her boys came dressed to impress in their cool kid outfits. Side note: I seriously don’t know what it is about Southern California, but I feel like the kids just come out cuter with their tan little noses and sun bleached hair.

Michelle wore the most gorgeous Asos dress I’ve ever seen. The pink beading and soft chiffon ensemble should be on every Pinterest Family Photo Wardrobe Inspiration Board out there! Her hair and makeup artist, Style N Gloss, did an amazing job with a soft, ethereal look that matched this location, and Michelle’s personality just beautifully.
