Seniors

 

Vallentyne Photography is a portrait studio in Oceanside, CA, with a newborn studio in Carlsbad, CA, serving North County and San Diego. With 20 years of experience, we specialize in natural, timeless portraits for families, maternity, newborns, and seniors—capturing genuine moments on location or in our beautiful portrait studio.

We’re here to make the process easy and enjoyable. Let’s start with a quick chat about what matters most to you. We’d be honored to create portraits you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

There’s something so tender about watching two people become parents for the very first time.
The way they look at their baby with quiet awe. The careful hands. The nervous laughter.
The kind of love that feels brand new but also like it’s been there forever.
These early days go by in a blur of feedings and swaddles, but this—this connection—is worth remembering.
In the calm of the studio, we slow everything down.
We make space for the stillness, the wonder, the quiet magic of your new beginning.

Because no matter how tall they get or how far they roam, they’ll always be her babies… even if they now roll their eyes when it's photo time. 😂.
Creating beautiful memories isn’t just about photos—it’s about making everyone feel comfortable, relaxed, and free to be themselves. 📸✨ Thank you to all my wonderful clients who trust me to capture those moments.

As I pointed my camera to the sky, to photograph the seabirds soaring on the wind, my client said, you did that on our last session 3 years ago, and we have the photo hanging in our home! Yes, I do that a lot. Eyes on the sky and head in the clouds, this is something my mom always used to say. ❤️

Honestly? They barely noticed I was there. So in love!!

Just two people, wildly into each other,
cracking up on the beach like it's the only place that matters.

10/10 would third wheel again.
