Michelle Berkowitz Photography

Here are some pics form a recent shoot at La Jolla Shores. This glowing Bat Mitzvah girl with her adoring fam was lots of fun-Extra special since I've known her since she was a baby! Love that I get to do outdoor shoots at the beach in the middle of winter!

Meet me at Jerabek Park this week for a ultra-mini posed school photo session! Preschool thru High School students welcome, quick turnaround time- super easy! Please RSVP below to let me know which day I can expect you. Feel free to share with friends.

While I do thoroughly enjoy taking pictures of adorable children and families, I also truly love taking pictures of nature! From the beach to the snow, from waterfalls on mountain tops to trees in the desert, I am recharged when I spend some time in nature. Despite the pandemic- fresh air and reconnecting with Mother Earth is the best (especially when I get to share it with my family).

This sweet family was so excited to explore the local canyons, teepees and bridges! The brotherly love, secrets and joy these two have will only strengthen in the coming years.

Join me at Jerabek Park tomorrow for YOUR school picture! Natural background (that can be converted using Shutterfly/Lifetouch to a classic 'blue school backdrop' easily. No rsvps, just come on by! I hope to see you there! Wednesday, Nov. 4th, 3-4:30pm

What an honor to be asked to photograph the Wendoll’s B’nai Mitzvah this past weekend at Congregation Beth Israel. It truly was a special day!

I love the beautiful flowers I see on my morning walks. #naturerocks

It's a big sister's job to tickle her little brother...just enough to capture a sweet smile! Love these two!

Goodness. These are some darn cute Minions!

This cutie hugging mom’s leg... year after year. She’s getting older but still has those big beautiful eyes!

So much joy in their faces!

Well, these cuties sure do know how to work the camera. I loved capturing them in this late afternoon light at Old Poway Park. Photo season is upon us, friends! Contact me if you want to book a family session! @mb.photogmama

A couple nature pics from the beautiful lily pond and gardens in Giverny, France at the home of Claude Monet.

A few more special pics from our trip!

Here are some pictures of the amazing flowers in the Keukenhof gardens, the canals of Amsterdam, the views from the top of a church spire in Delft, and the charming windmill town of Zaanse Schans. There are so many special places in this country- I'm so grateful to have visited these sites on my trip.

I'm grateful I didn't have to go far from home to enjoy this spring bloom! I'm also grateful to have a (cute!) willing subject to play amongst the flowers.

I haven't posted here in a while...so here is a #tbt for today. I do love when she giggles, and her nose wrinkles up. I wish my sweet Vanessa a lifetime of giggles! (Aug.2014, 4 yrs old)

These blonde, blue-eyed beauties were so much fun to photograph!!
