When do I book my maternity pictures in San Diego?

When do I book my maternity photos?

It’s best to book your maternity photos as you enter your second trimester and get them scheduled for between 28-34 weeks depending, on if you’re having multiples or not (multiples are scheduled earlier on) and if it’s your first or second or third etc pregnancy. This is to ensure your photographer in San Diego have spots left in their schedule to fit you in. And around 28-34 weeks you’ve popped, have a nice round belly but still able to move around enough to not feel uncomfortable during your session.

San Diego Studio Maternity Pictures

I’ve never been shy about saying how I feel about studio maternity pictures – I FRICKIN LOVE THEM!!! Seriously, they are some of my favorite portraits to capture here in San Diego, or anywhere for that matter. There is something so special about watching a mom-to-be, excitedly showcase her belly and enjoying her pregnancy.

Fall Family Activities in San Diego – Pumpkin Patch Time

Can you smell that? That crisp air blowing through your windows. Filled with notes of cinnamon and pumpkin.

The apple pies sitting in the window waiting to be enjoyed. Fall has arrived in San Diego and you know what that means? Pumpkin Patch Time. And this year I found a new pumpkin patch in San Diego that is super kid friendly and filled with tons of fun activities and play sets.

Clean and Minimalistic Boy Cake Smash Photos

The end of a One Year Baby Plan is a bittersweet celebration. Celebrating baby turning ONE, but it also means they’ve graduated for their baby plan with me and I won’t see them quite as often as I’ve gotten used to.

Max’s cake smash session was such a fun way to end his baby plan with us. This minimalistic and clean one year pictures turned out so adorable, using fun colors with clean backdrops to really put baby in the spot light.

San Diego Girl Milestone Session at La Mesa Studio

These studio milestone sessions are so adorable and so much fun. I usually combine pictures of baby alone for their milestone photos and then also include the entire family in some. And if big brother or sister comes with, I always try to get some solo shots of them as well. It’s something parents appreciates, and it allows for the siblings to warm up to me, and also feel as though they are part of the shoot as well.

Mission Trails Milestone 6 Month Session

Sitter sessions are some of my favorite types of baby photos. I usually schedule them when baby is 6-7 months old and can sit unassisted. Most of my sessions take place at my photo studio in La Mesa, but every once in a while I get to do them outdoors and Mission Trails is one of my favorite spots to shoot at.
