San Diego Family Portraits – Torrey Pines Beach

Once again, I find myself behind on blogging. I have many session in the que, so standby for more in the future, as I try to get better at this blogging thing…
I had a great opportunity to photograph this Brandon, Jen and Lily before bringing Brooke into the world. In a quick family photo session down at Torrey Pines Beach, we were able to get some beautiful images. Here are a few from the set. Enjoy:)

San Diego Wedding Photographer – The Marston House

I have just gotten around to blogging this wedding from an AWESOME couple, Travis and Elise.  Busy has been an understatement these days.   After a great engagement session at Wind-an-Sea Beach in La Jolla, CA, I knew the wedding was going to  be a fun day.  On wedding day, we met at Balboa Park for the wedding party portraits, then headed over to the nearby Marston House for the ceremony.  The grounds there are absolutely beautiful for an outdoor wedding venue.  After the ceremony, they got in their friends old Ford Fairlane 500 for the quick trip to The Abbey for the reception.  What a party they threw down.  I had so much fun that I felt like a guest of the party rather than just working an event.  It was a perfect day for Travis and Elise and wish them the best of luck in their future together.

La Jolla Maternity Photo Shoot

It was an honor to get a call to document a couple’s last few hours of pregnancy…several months back at this point.  Being our best friends in the world made this experience all the better!  Erin and Damon really wanted to get some photos as they headed off to their final doctor’s appointment, before their baby was brought into this world.  It was an emotionally charged photo shoot since they thought baby Masen wouldn’t be there for another couple of weeks.  I could not be happier with the way the photos turn out.  It always helps to have beautiful subjects in a beautiful location!  This is Scripps Pier in La Jolla, CA.  We were limited to the harsh mid-day sun, but there are ways around that with all of the light modifiers out there.  With just a few simple steps, we were able to transform that harsh direct sunlight into soft pleasing light.
Congratulations Erin and Damon!!!

EME Photography gets a new blog…

Thank you for having a read, but please bear with me as I figure out this new blog that I am working with these days.  Stand by for larger images, easier navigation and a more pleasant experience overall, just like you get when you have a photo shoot with me;)

Family Photo Shoot at Crystal Pier in San Diego

Recently, I had a wonderful family portrait photo shoot with Madeline and Chad at Crystal Pier, in Pacific Beach.  We encountered a bit of wind, but were able to work around it a bit with the pier as a block.  I really love piers and think they make a wonderful background for portrait sessions.  If you are in need of ideas, don’t overlook a pier.  Enjoy my images of this beautiful family!
