hotel del coronado beach photographer-san diego beach photography

This beautiful mama of three contacted me shortly before their family trip to Southern California from their home in Tennessee. They were staying at the Hotel Del Coronado and thought it would be the perfect opportunity for a family beach portrait session. I grew up in the South so it was a wonderful experience for me to hear their southern accents during our time together . . . I don’t hear a lot of southern talk in California 🙂 After our conversations about sweet tea and bar-b-que, we moved on to favorite college teams . . . turns out the oldest brother in this group just graduated from Auburn University . . . I am a graduate of his arch rival school, the University of Alabama. Despite that tidbit and a little bantering about the Iron Bowl, I was able to capture quite a few smiles, laughs and special connections during their session. This group was so much fun to get to know during the hour we spent together on the beach. Enjoy a few of my favorite moments from their session!
