North Coast Village Vacation {Oceanside Beach Family Photography}

As an Oceanside native, I have a lot of favorite places in Oceanside and North Coast Village is one of them! North Coast Village is such a beautiful place for a family vacation. It’s right on the beach with pools available and gorgeous tropical Landscaping. This makes North Coast Village the perfect place for a family portrait session when you are on vacation! I usually start the session walking around the resort and then we finished on the sand. I love the beach right in front of North Coast Village because it a lot more quiet and less crowded than most beaches in the area. Here are a few of my favorite photos from this beautiful family portrait session on the water!

I get it—being pregnant can feel overwhelming. You’re tired, you’ve got a million things on your list, and the thought of planning a photo session might feel like one more thing to manage.

That’s where I come in.

From helping you choose what to wear, to finding the perfect location, to guiding you through every pose—I’ve done this hundreds of times. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to show up, and I’ll take care of the rest.

Because these months go by faster than you think. And when they’re gone, you’ll want to remember the way it felt to be here, waiting.

Just two people and a whole new chapter rolling in with the tide.
No shoes. No stress.
Just soaking it in before everything changes.

Still so new to the world, and yet already so full of soul.
It’s these tiny, unexpected moments that take my breath away.
Simple. Honest. Powerful.
No props. No posing. Just your baby—exactly as they are.

There’s nothing quite like those first days of motherhood.
The way she holds her baby close, still learning each other’s rhythms.
The quiet strength in her arms. The softness in her eyes.
It’s raw, overwhelming, beautiful.
And it passes faster than anyone warns you.
That’s why I keep things simple in the studio—so all the focus stays right here:
On the connection. The love. The beginning of it all.
