Family Photos on LaJolla Beach
Kara did a fabulous job with our family photos!! There were 8 adults and we were all from out of town! She was so easy to work with from a distance! Can’t say enough nice things about her! Thanks Kara!
Perfect ending to the perfect trip!
We recently visited Oceanside, California and had the pleasure of working with Kara, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience! Not only is she incredibly talented behind the camera, but she’s also one of the kindest and most thoughtful professionals we’ve ever worked with.
She made us feel completely comfortable during the shoot and captured beautiful, natural moments that we’ll treasure forever. Her attention to detail and artistic eye truly set her apart.
On top of that, she went above and beyond by recommending some of the best local spots for ice cream and pizza — and let’s just say, our taste buds were just as happy as we were with our photos! 🥰🍕🍦
If you’re looking for a photographer in Oceanside, California who’s professional, personable, and just genuinely awesome, we can’t recommend Kara enough. Worth every penny — and then some!
Capturing Love Beyond the Lens: Kara Made My Parents Elopement Perfect!
I can't say enough wonderful things about our experience with Kara! She photographed my parents' elopement, and we couldn't possibly be happier with both the experience and the results.
From the very beginning, Kara was incredibly responsive during the setup process. She helped us find the perfect location for the ceremony - her knowledge of photogenic spots is truly impressive! What really sets Kara apart, though, is how she works with people. She made my parents feel completely comfortable in front of the camera during what was already an emotional and special day.
Throughout the entire experience, Kara was helpful, supportive, and went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. She wasn't just taking pictures - she was genuinely invested in making my parents' elopement perfect.
The photos themselves are absolutely stunning and capture the love and joy of the day beautifully. But what we'll remember most is how Kara's warm personality and professionalism made the experience so special.
If you're looking for a photographer who combines technical skill with a wonderful personality and attention to detail, look no further than Kara. We're so grateful we found her for this important family milestone!
Family sessions!
Kara is incredibly talented!! She has been capturing memories for our family since before my son was walking and how he’s 3. She is so patient and great with the kids. Makes things go so calm and smoothly. Always excited for our next sessions! Recommend 10/10
Great Photographer!
Had a lot of ideas and places to take pictures. Helped me decide on outfit ideas and we had a lot of fun taking pictures!
A forever customer!
I’m so so happy with the photos Kara took for my business. She took many of my recent product photos for my brand, Style Ari. She also took photos from one of my recent Sip & Sew workshops which are now used over and over again for marketing and content. Kara is such a fun person to be around and is so talented at what she does. I always feel the biggest confidence boost after sessions with her.
Could not recommend more!
Kara did my graduation session and I could not have been happier! She had asked me about what my inspiration pictures were and made my visions come to life more amazingly than I could have ever imagined! My family and I were absolutely in love with the way the gallery came back.
Wow! Just wow!
I have tried many photographers and have never loved my photos so much. Kara goes above and beyond to make my dreams a reality. I love working with her. She has such a fun energy and makes you feel you best during the photo shoots. 100 out of 10 recommend her for fashion boutiques. She took wonderful photos for my sewing workshops in Encinitas and my past collections in the Oceanside area.
Texas to Oceanside
Choosing a photographer out of state is not easy. We had to trust each other and it worked out. Kara was excellent with helping us take family vacation photos at the Oceanside Pier. She engaged with our two year old (which is a tall task) and kept us all engaged in our session. If we go back, she will be our go to photographer. She did an excellent job.
Perfect Photos & Customer Service
I had asked Kara to shoot my proposal at Sunset Cliffs in San Diego, and the photos were absolutely beautiful; despite heavy winds. Photos were all delivered within 24 hours and look perfect!!! Me and my fiancée will definitely be reaching out to Kara for our Wedding!! You will not be disappointed when you book with Kara.
LOVED IT!!!

Easygoing!
I had pictures of my son and I taken and he’s 1.5 years old and Kara was so patient and made the whole process soo easy and relaxed! I am also very awkward and that was alleviated so quickly lol our pictures came out BEAUTIFUL and GORGEOUS and I am obsessed with them. I really cannot say enough good things about how amazing the process and Kara were 1000/10
We had fun!
Kara made our shoot flow so well! Didn’t even feel like a shoot. We were just having fun! And the pictures are *chefs kiss! I can’t wait to book the next! 😍
Incredibly talented
From start to finish, Kara showcased not only her immense talent but also her boundless creativity and infectious energy. Kara’s ability to capture moments is truly remarkable! I highly recommend you book your next shoot with her.
Fall photoshoot
Since the time I reached out to Kara about inquiring a photoshoot, she was so sweet and so helpful. She would get back to me in such a timely manner.
And her prices are very reasonable.
She was referred to me by my sister who also used her services.
My husband and I wanted a last minute “fall photoshoot” and not only did she do that for us but she exceeded our expectations!
We were scheduled at a certain location but the morning of a light rain surprised us which didn’t allow our original location to work but Kara immediately found a different location that she thought would work with some light rain because this new location offered some coverage. And let me tell you, we were so pleased with the location. I personally loved it so much! Instead of postponing our session, which she could have, she made it work. The light rain did stop before our photoshoot. Yay!
Kara gave my husband and I the most beautiful, memorable photoshoot!
If you’re like me and you’re awkward with taking pics and don’t know how to pose, kara is your girl!
She will make you feel so comfortable during a photoshoot and will place you exactly where you need to be. My husband and I are extremely happy with Kara and her amazing work! I’ve gotten nothing but compliments on our pictures. We absolutely love them.
She is also very fast at getting your pictures back to you. You won’t have to wait weeks for them. Mine took less than a week! Which we really appreciated!
We highly recommend Kara for your next photoshoot!
I know we will be using her services again!
Maternity Session
Kara is very talented in capturing amazing photos. Great with kids. She was able to keep my 20 month old smiling. She gave great direction and made sure that our expressions were natural. I loved the variety of moments she captured as well. I recommend to everyone I know. Looking forward to booking more family sessions in the near future.
Above and Beyond!
I requested sunset beach family pictures, while surrounded by multiple photographers and families, Kara photographed our family at the peak of the christmas photo season at Scripps Pier. With perfection she caught beautiful moments that we will look back and treasure forever.
I love how she notices all the little details that make an incredible shot, and she delivers with excellence! I can't wait to book this year!
10/10 would recommend if I could give her 100 stars I would
Growing up we never took family photos so the concept of having someone take pictures really freaked me out, but Kara made us feel supper comfortable! She told us how to pose and even captured some cannon photos that looked amazing!! Totally changed my perspective of family portraits and I will definitely be booking again 😊
A photographer I trust for every occasion!
I can't recommend Kara enough! She's captured two significant milestones in my life - my engagement and graduation - with such artistry and attention to detail. Her ability to go above and beyond expectations is truly remarkable. Not only does she possess immense talent behind the lens, but her professionalism and genuine care for her clients make every session a joy. I have complete confidence in her work and will undoubtedly return for all my photography needs in the future. Thank you, Kara, for beautifully preserving these cherished moments!
Amazing Engagement Pictures

Kara is the best!
Kara is a wonderful ray of sunshine. We have booked her to take our family Christmas photos. She is friendly, efficient and a skilled photographer. We will book her again in the future.
There are no words!
Our wedding photos were absolutely stunning. Kara is such a joy to work with. She is extremely detail oriented and catches many things. The creativity is unique. She captured every special moment. We have enjoyed looking back at our wedding photos since we didn’t get to live in the moment very long. The additional photos of our decor, wedding rings, the church, it all was there for us to look back on. She worked within our price range and we couldn’t have been more happy with the outcome!
Best photographer!!
Kara is such a great photographer! She’s great with families, couples, and is very accommodating! She has shot all of my milestones and I will continue to use her for all the rest!
