Holiday mini sessions at Saint Francis, Palos Verdes – Whimsical Courtyard

For All Your Most Precious Moments

Holiday Mini Sessions at St Francis

We are hosting our annual holiday mini sessions at Malaga Cove Plaza! We believe that every family should have a professional portrait at the end of each year. It’s a great way to remember who you are in the most beautiful way possible. If you are looking to take your family photos call us to schedule your family session! We are so excited to see all of our friends and families!

Saint Francis offers an amazingly beautiful brick courtyard that shares visions of a fairytale dream. The beautiful brick courtyard is adjacent to one of the first chapels built in Palos Verdes. The architecture is inspired by a European landscape. We are very excited to take photos of your family at Saint Francis in Palos Verdes

Ellie is such an amazing photographer and I cannot recommend her enough. We booked a mini session for our holiday card photos and she took the most wonderful photos of my 5 year old son, husband, and me. They were the best family photos we have gotten thus far from any photographer and she captured all of us so well, especially my 5 year old - there were no weird smile faces and she magically got him to smile and look like a regular person in photos which is a major feat. She also turned around the photos very quickly so we could use them for our holiday card. She is a pleasure to work with and I can say that we will be using Ellie going forward for all photos - she's the best!

Hi, I'm Ellie, a dreamer, and lover of romantic moments and unrelenting connections.

In my 15 years of photographing weddings, my interest in photography has grown from simply making pretty pictures -to creating the most wonderful and powerful moments for kind and loving people, all the while capturing those permanent memories.

It is a dream come true to create awe-inspiring imagery to match your unforgettable moments and I hope that by creating your wedding imagery together, we can make your wedding dreams come true too.

When you get married during an eclipse, it only makes sense to walk over "Full Moon Bridge." ​​​​​​​​
