Lifestyle Portrait Session.  Mini Portrait Session. Extended Session. 
Which is best for your family??
Hello Blue Bow Friends! Can you believe it's already time to book your Fall 2021 portrait session?
Despite last year's crazy ups and downs, we sold out of our beach sessions and several of our other fall locations by mid-September. If you see a location and date that you want, snag it while you can! There are a LOT of options so take notes on which are your favorite, grab your calendars and let's get your session locked in!
First, let's decide if a 15 minute mini session or FULL length session is best for your family.  The style of images you want to display in your home, or print on your holiday cards might be more in line with a full session.  If you have a child who takes a few minutes to warm up to new surroundings or you want to have a variety of backdrops and plenty of time for candids (running, playing, laughing and splashing with your family) then a full length session would be ideal. 

The available dates can be found below each location's sample photos. Click the BOOK NOW tab next to your desired location to select and reserve your date and time! Please email kellie@littlebluebowphotography.com to request availability for a full length session or to join the waitlist for a location that is already sold out.

Sunset Beach Sessions- 30 Minutes - $450 -15 Retouched Images

WooHoo! It's time to start booking my FAVORITE time of year for beach sessions.  Move over summer! Believe it or not, fall and winter are the BEST portrait months for many of San Diego's beautiful beaches. The tide is much lower from September through January allowing for dramatic landscapes with beautiful reflective details. The weather is warm and the air is dry which makes for gorgeous, colorful sunsets. Tones will shift hour to hour and day to day depending on cloud coverage and the amount of dust from our Santa Ana windy season, but fall (and winter) do not disappoint at the beach! Even on the rare days with fog or clouds, the beach is always gorgeous. Beach sessions are long enough to ensure we have time to capture all that the beach has to offer: the beautiful warm sunset tones, a variety of backdrops AND the flattering pastel light that occurs after the sun dips behind the horizon on clear days (It's magical and my absolute favorite lighting at the beach!) You may extend your session to 50 minutes if you have a larger family or want more time to explore and play! 

 La Jolla- Scripps

Scripps has gorgeous cliffs, an iconic pier, sea rocks and plenty of space during low tides to capture your family having fun and splashing into the sunset! This is hands down my clients most requested location, so snag your date quickly! Maternity portraits or family portraits, this setting is a dream no matter the weather! Gorgeous backdrops and lots of space to explore and play  during these seasonal low tides make for those dreamy reflective captures. It's been a client favorite for the past 8 years and it's easy to see why. Look at these beautiful colors! Seriously though, they go fast.  *If your preferred date has sold out, please contact Kellie for a list of available dates for full length sessions.

Book La Jolla

Coronado Beach

Coronado offers some great details and textures to include in your family's portrait session including the surrounding sand dunes, sea rocks and other details close to the Hotel del Coronado. The sun sets behind the Point Loma peninsula for gorgeous silhouettes and there is usually plenty of parking. You will have the option of selecting between two sides of Coronado Beach which have different backdrops.

Crystal Pier, Pacific Beach

Choose from a 30 or 50 minutes session at Crystal Pier. Do you want to incorporate some family fun on the boardwalk? Grab an ice cream, or ride scooters or bikes with your kids? This is a great location to bring some unique family moments into your photo session. 30 minute sessions will be at the pier and ocean only. Book the 50 minute session to incorporate the boardwalk as well.

Summer Wildflowers - San Diego
This area changes throughout the year, but I really love the soft hues of these wildflowers as they dry out from the summer heat.

Eucalyptus Grove- Morning and Afternoon Sessions

This is about as woodsy as we get in California! I love the warm tones from this location which work perfectly with traditional fall wardrobe colors.
Have an early riser at home?  This location is great for morning sessions! 
Keep in mind, the ground is full of leaves, twigs and roots so comfortable shoes are suggested and this location is not recommended for anyone with major mobility issues. Bonus- Parking is just steps away!

Cactus Garden- Balboa Park

Soft hues and beautiful diffused light make the desert garden at Balboa Park a yearly favorite. (It's equally as beautiful on a cloudy day.)
​
Make a night of it! After your family portraits, enjoy a stroll around beautiful Balboa Park or grab a bite under the market lights at Panama 66 or The Prado.

Balboa Park- Spanish Village Morning and Afternoon

Colorful. Bold. Fun.
Spanish Village at Balboa Park is a fantastic location for family portraits and to try something new with lots of personality!
​I especially love kids' and teen portraits here with all the vibrant doors and windows. The colors are beautiful even on cloudy mornings.

Classic architecture and neutral tones make the Organ Pavilion a great backdrop for portraits! Mornings are much less busy at this location which means less distractions, so I recommend morning sessions for families with young children.

Sweetwater Bridge, Rancho San Diego

Sweetwater Bridge is an iconic setting in East County. Grand and unique architectural details make this location a client favorite which means it can be very busy with photographers in the fall. The bridge is beautiful year round. August-early October will have green vines and trees along the bridge and November/December will have some changing fall tones. The trails behind are just as pretty, especially with the changing leaves in late fall. (Both locations (bridge and trails) may be booked with the extended session only.) I highly suggest a weekday evening or weekend morning to avoid some of the crowds​.
​**Sweetwater Bridge is great for anyone in a wheelchair or who has mobility issues.

Autumn Trails- San Diego

Our Autumn Trails location is beautiful year round, but I especially love it after the leaves start to turn colors. Located off the 52 near Clairemont, it's fairly central and full of pretty colors and textures. This location requires a small walk and one hill. It's not suitable for strollers or people with mobility issues. Book a custom date in September or October for this location by contacting kellie@littlebluebowphotography.com

Iron Mountain
The Hall of Trees and beautiful trails and mountain views makes Iron Mt a favorite fall location. 
Located on the border of Poway and Lakeside, this location is best known for its Hall of Trees but the winding trail and mountain view are equally as stunning for portrait sessions. This location will only be available for 30 minute sessions and one per evening so we have plenty of time to capture portraits in each of my favorite areas during the best light available.

 Jack's Pond Park - San Marcos

Jack's Pond Park in San Marcos is a cute location for kids' and family photos. A vibrant red barn is in the distance with details of white fencing and gorgeous light that stream onto the trails. This is a great location to add your pup!  This location is also suitable for people with mobility issues as they can be dropped off just steps away from the flat pathway.

Los Peñasquitos Preserve

Located between Mira Mesa and Rancho Peñasquitos, this location has beautiful light, tree lined paths and open fields for beautiful, sun-kissed images.  There is a small creek nearby which means bugs are always around so bring bug spray if bugs love you as much as they love me! lol
*15 minute sessions are not available for this location.

 OUR 2021 CHRISTMAS MINI SESSIONS HAVE BE RELEASED!

CHRISTMAS CALENDAR

**IMPORTANT NOTES**

1) Appointments are NOT fully booked until payment and a signed contract are received.  Contracts will be emailed within 5 days of you selecting your date/time on the booking site.  Reservations will be cancelled and refunded if a signed contract is not returned within 5 business days of booking. Double check that you have entered your email and contact information correctly. If you have not received your contract within 3 days, please email kellie@littlebluebowphotography.com.
2) All sample images are for an idea of the location only. No particular backdrop is guaranteed. Portrait sessions will be unique. Colors and backdrops will vary due to weather, cloud coverage and other elements like crowds, closures or construction. Exact colors or backdrops cannot be guaranteed.
3) Additional images are available for purchase.
4) All start times are approximate. Be prepared that your session may be bumped up or back by 15-30 minutes due to weather, booking an extended session, scheduling gaps or other factors. Your exact time and meeting location will be emailed to you 2 days before your appointment.
​5) Full length sessions are suggested for families of 6 or more, clients who wish to include pets or for clients wishing to have a wardrobe change.
6) The Turn Around time is 12-15 days from your session date (with the exception of our LIMITED HOLIDAY sessions in December which will have a 5 day turnaround.)

7) A 3 day Rush Order is available for $150.
8) Fall Sessions are booked with back to back clients. Late arrivals will miss out on that amount of time from their session.  I highly advise planning to arrive 20 minutes early to get all participants picture-ready so you don't feel rushed at start time.  Portraits should always be fun, I never want you to feel stressed!
9) Holiday Cards, Prints and Products may be purchased directly through your online gallery. The print labs are extremely busy from late November through December. Please ask for our current promo codes for holiday cards and prints. They change periodically depending on the labs offers and I always extend those savings to my clients! If you are interested in heirloom albums or fine wall art including acrylic, framed canvas, wood or metal wall art, please email Kellie for current pricing. :)
