Marlo+Michael=Lucky – San Diego Wedding Photographer

I title this Lucky for two reasons. One, it was their first dance (Jason Mraz). The other reason is these two are so perfect for each other it’s amazing. You can tell how they interact with each other that they are definitely meant to be together. I have known Marlo since about 1998 (ish) and my mom has known Michael’s family since they were very young. (It’s a small world!). Anyway…I was honored when asked to photograph their beautiful wedding July 12th at Tom Ham’s Lighthouse. Everything was perfect about the day (except the heat–it was HOT!).

Here are the wonderful vendors who made this day possible…

Sam+Mark=Lovin- San Diego Wedding Photographer

WOW… this wedding was so beautiful. Sam was referred to me by a friend of mine from college (thanks, Sarah!) and she was the most easy going bride ever. Mark and Sam got married at The Crossings in Carlsbad and it’s a BEAUTIFUL golf course. I can’t even tell you how gorgeous this venue is! I had fun riding super fast in a golf cart ahead of Mark and Sam while holding a 70-200mm lens (it’s heavy) and also holding onto the cart so I didn’t fall out…I’m proud of myself for not falling out :)   The ceremony was beautiful and the reception was so fun! Guests who want to log into view and order pictures can go back to www.stillsbyhill.com then click “log in to view wedding proofs” type in your email address and the password of Sam’s maiden name :)

Gary and Shannon’s Wedding-San Diego Wedding Photographer

(This is being re-posted due to the error of guests not being able to make comments below…weird! Remember to leave comments! We love comments)

We photographed Shannon and Gary’s wedding at Marina Village in January. It was our 1st wedding back since having our child (and of 2009) and I must say–I enjoy photographing weddings more now that I am not pregnant anymore! It was very hard for a while. Anyway…Shannon looked stunning, Gary radiated love toward her, and everyone had a wonderful time.

I am loving this new blog since I can have my images ginormous now!

Enjoy the slideshow and pictures. Those of you wanting to see all of them and order online, go back to www.stillsbyhill.com then click “wedding proofs” and type in the password of shannon’s maiden name :)

Baby Elizabeth-San Diego Children’s Photographer

You might remember the Paddocks from back in June when I did Sarah’s maternity pictures. Then Lizzie was born ittie bittie and I took some pictures in the nicu. Well look at the love bug now.. 6 months old, sitting up, eating solids… big girl! We had a great time with the pictures. Lizzie is a trooper.. letting me put the petticoat, tutu and hat on her–sat her on the grass at the park…I think she was a bit confused at this big black thing in her face all afternoon!

Don’t forget to leave a comment below–we love comments :)



Lizzie loves her big “sister” Lainie :) So cute!

Apparently not so much…

I absolutely love this picture of dad, Lizzie and mommy’s feet. so cute!

I’ve noticed all babies love their changing table….and being naked on them!

Daddy’s girl…

Meet the Robertsons-San Diego family photographer

I photographed the Robertsons a few weeks ago and they are such a nice family! We had fun (and I was super cold) running around Presidio Park with their dog, Misty. They wanted to do a family session with their dog who is getting really old and I’m happy to have given them memories they will hold onto for a long time!

See the slideshow:

I LOVE the lighting here… it was such a perfect morning for the sunlight!

A set of cuteness…

I had such a fun time (and challenging) photographing baby E, baby M and little A! A set of 1 year old twins and a 4 year old who is a little ham is a challenge but that’s why I love what I do. Enjoy the slide show then see the picture :) You can leave comments below by clicking “comments”
