The maternity babymoon is the new thing! I have photographed so many of these and I wish I had done it myself, this sweet couple stayed at @missionpacifichotel in Oceanside which gave us so many beautiful locations to walk around and shoot as they celebrated this tiny little slice of life before becoming a family of three ♥️♥️♥️

I’ve been photographing families in North County San Diego for decades, and I still find new ways to make each session personal and meaningful. If you’re ready to create something together, let’s chat.

What matters most in a portrait session isn’t perfect outfits or perfect behavior—it’s capturing the love your family shares. That’s what you’ll remember years from now. If that resonates with you, reach out—I’d love to work with you.
