Phoenix!! (and Chanel + Jose) | San Diego Family Photographer

I can not find words for this family that are not already encompassed in the word "love".

Chanel & Jose are such amazing souls that I've been blessed to know for quite some time now. They are real and passionate and loving and so down to earth... well unless it comes to Chanel's runway dress. :)

When we started our planning the Gaslamp district was a must being that they just moved into the neighborhood from Los Angeles but we also had some pretty scenic locales planned. But as plans tend to do, they changed. And we said goodbye to the soaking wet scenic landscape that is San Diego and decided to just stay downtown.

And if you hadn't already noticed this session is the Phoenix show... mom and dad just came along for the ride and some fun loving family time.

Enjoy!

And just because Chanel will probably hate me for posting this!

Charllotte, Derek + Lenore | San Diego Family Photographer

So, when you think of San Diego what comes to mind? Sun, warmth, beach days...?  Well it just so happens that I am the bringer of weather and being from Vegas and all, this typically entails me bringing a bout of sunshine and warmth to places like Portland or Seattle. Truthfully, in all the time I've spent in the pacific northwest I've only ever seen it rain once in Seattle, once in Eugene and never in Portland.

Some say it's just good luck but I think not.

But this time around Vegas was just coming out of a damp, freezing week. So what do you think I was welcomed with? Rain! Days and days straight of rain... in San Diego!! (unheard of) 

Although our day was nothing like we planned we headed out to the Geisel Library in La Jolla and made the best of the sporadic clear skies amongst the thick fog. it may have turned into a mini-session but we had a great time!

Enjoy,
