La Jolla Photographer
Capturing maternity, newborn, children’s, and family sessions since 2009.
La Jolla Maternity, Newborn & Baby Milestone Photography
La Jolla families who visit my Carlsbad studio tell me they love having a dedicated, private space for their sessions. The drive is about 20 minutes up the coast, and what you get is a photographer who has been doing this for over 17 years, a purpose-built studio, and a full day reserved just for your family. I photograph maternity, newborn, milestone, cake smash, and family sessions.
Maternity
Photographer
La Jolla

La Jolla mums book maternity sessions with me because they want an elevated experience. I have over 150 gowns for you to choose from, and professional hair and makeup is included. Sessions are best between weeks 30 and 34. You walk in, get pampered, and walk out feeling amazing. The photos match that feeling.
Newborn
Photographer
La Jolla

For La Jolla families, I always recommend getting in touch during pregnancy so we can plan your newborn session. The best window is 5 to 21 days old. My studio stays warm and calm, I have everything we need on hand, and I let your baby lead the session entirely. No rushing, no pressure, just patience and care.
Cake Smash Photographer
La Jolla

Cake smash sessions are always a hit with La Jolla families. I handle everything: a custom cake, a themed backdrop from over 250 options, and a splash bath to clean up the fun. Your one year old gets to explore, make a mess, and be completely themselves while I capture every moment.
Milestone
Photographer
La Jolla

La Jolla parents often book milestone sessions at six months, and it is one of my favourite ages to photograph. Babies are sitting up, full of curiosity, and their personalities really start to show. The studio setting keeps everything simple so the focus is entirely on your little one.

About La Jolla, San Diego County
La Jolla, an affluent coastal community in San Diego County, California, is renowned for its picturesque setting, dramatic coastline, and vibrant culture. Nestled along the Pacific Ocean just north of downtown San Diego, La Jolla stretches for approximately seven miles, offering stunning views of rugged cliffs, sandy coves, and crystal-clear waters. Historically, La Jolla’s name is believed to derive from the Spanish “la joya,” meaning “the jewel,” aptly reflecting its reputation as the “Jewel of San Diego.” The area was inhabited by the Kumeyaay people long before becoming a part of San Diego in the late 19th century. Iconic landmarks include the La Jolla Cove, prized for its rich marine life and popular among snorkelers and kayakers, and the renowned Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Visitors can explore upscale shopping and dining in the village, walk along the scenic cliffs at Ellen Browning Scripps Park, or visit the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. The University of California, San Diego brings academic vigor and innovative energy to the area. Additionally, the Birch Aquarium, The Children’s Pool with its resident seals, and the dramatic sea caves offer unique attractions for all ages, solidifying La Jolla’s status as a premier destination in Southern California.
