Sunset in San Diego.

One of the very best parts of living in San Diego is the sunsets. We have a gorgeous view from our backyard, but I love the times when we head down to the beach to check them out. Last week we happened to be in La Jolla for a photo shoot with a family and decided to stay for the sunset after they left. I'm so glad we did because it was absolutely breath taking.

Mini session at La Jolla Shores Beach {Stewart Family}

I met up with the Stewart family for a mini session in La Jolla. Jordan and Jeff are getting ready to celebrate their one year anniversary with a big wedding (yay!) and wanted some family photos to incorporate into their special day. 6 year old Natalie was so much fun to watch, her beautiful smile was infectious and her love of the ocean was obvious; we had a hard time keeping her out of it long enough for photos. ;-)

Congratulations, Stewarts!

The kiddos at Scripps Pier. La Jolla, California.

I had an interesting photo assignment for school; I needed to use converging lines in a photograph. As soon as I read about the assignment I knew that I wanted to do a shoot at Scripps Pier. It's been on my to-do list for a while and this was the perfect excuse to head down to the beach. It was a beautiful night and the lighting was gorgeous (as were the kids, of course.) My family and I spent about an hour at the beach and I fell in love with this section of La Jolla Shores. The pier was just awesome and there are cliffs lining one side of the beach. And best of all... it wasn't crowded! Looking forward to many more shoots here.

And one more of Kaia because this may be the cutest smile ever captured in a photograph. Hehe.
