I’m new to the area of San Diego and have decided to take up my love for photography more serious. I have a friend who has seen my pictures and would like me to take shots of her while being pregnant. I would LOVE to get some good shots but have NO idea where to go. I’d like for anyone to help me out on some suggestions on where I can go and some places where we may have more privacy. But anything will help.
Thanks
The rocks at Windansea beach in La Jolla make an interesting backdrop. You’ll want to go at low tide, as more rocks appear out of the water, creating some semi-private spaces. At high tide they are under water.
If you love gardens, the Self Realization Fellowship Temple in Encinitas has great views and beautiful gardens that are free (not open on Mondays).
San Diego Botanic Garden in Encinitas is a beautiful botanic garden, with bamboo forest, rain forest, desert and more.
If you walk along the beach at low tide (say less than 3 feet) you can see some nice cliffs. Blacks Beach requires you to go down a fairly steep trail, or walk 5 miles round trip at low tide, which may not appeal to a pregnant woman. But you can just take a short walk south from Torrey Pines, south from Moonlight, or south from Cardiff and you will be in a fairly quiet stretch of beach along some interesting cliffs.
Of course all of these places are less crowded on a weekday.
