About
Hi there! I am a professional portrait and lifestyle photographer based in San Diego, CA. The most important part of creating a fantastic finished product comes down to one word: communication! From before the shoot we will brainstorm on how we can make your shoot as meaningful as possible. The details matter - location, clothing, and time of day mean the world. I create timeless images with bold color, light, and strong concepts, usually with elements of nature. I have worked as a photographer for approximately 5 years and am so grateful for the lifestyle that it provides and for all the kind people I am able to meet. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, crazy ideas, or just to say hello :) Dave

We hired David to take maternity couples photos of us and we had an amazing experience! He was super responsive and easy to book, showed up 10 minutes early and was incredibly professional but also very friendly. He had a great eye for lighting and what would work in the environment and was very skilled at giving us different poses. We especially appreciated this as we don’t often hire photographers and wouldn’t know where to even start with poses, but he immediately made us both feel at ease and relaxed with his excellent artistic direction. And the best is the end result - we are in love with the photos he sent us. They are absolutely stunning and captured our moment in an even more beautiful way than we hoped. I highly recommend working with David, we will definitely hire him again for other photoshoots.

David was so much fun and made the photo shoot experience feel so natural! Me and my fiancé were both so emotional going through our photo gallery. David’s work is phenomenal and would book again!

The experience with our proposal session went incredibly well. Our shoot was a surprise proposal that was exactly what we had hoped for. Communication in giving an informative description of what I wanted for the shoot with David was one of the best parts for me. Being able to brainstorm and try different things was awesome. Additionally, the style of the photos was exactly what we were looking for, capturing the special moment and the portrait session that followed. I would recommend anyone planning a proposal in the future—pleasure working with David.

Details: Proposal photoshoot • Natural or environmental • Outdoors • One location • Online or digital proofs and prints • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
