Photographer San Diego | San Diego Photographer

It seems a little odd to have an “about us” section without first acknowledging that we are indeed Josh and Melissa Mitchell and our company is called Continuum Photography. We think that every life has a story and photography is part of the life continuum in which we tell our stories. Images are powerful and can instantly transport us back in time to events with remarkable clarity. Until the first time machine rolls off of the assembly line at Honda (and that’s really just a matter of TIME), photos are one of the best ways we can relive our life experiences. That’s why they are important. It’s probably why you are here on this website in the first place - looking for a photographer to capture a moment of your life. We’re Josh and Melissa Mitchell, a husband a wife photography team specializing in weddings, events, portraiture, boudoir, seniors, and generally anything that involves a face.

Where the heck are you located??

Continuum Photography is a San Diego based company, serving the southern California area (San Diego, Orange County, and Los Angeles) and any city that has an airport, transporter pod, or road leading to it. We like to travel. Between the two of us, we’ve lived in California, Rhode Island, Illinois, North Carolina, Washington, and Oregon. We generally don’t charge extra to drive to Southern California locations, and our pricing for locations outside that radius is reasonable and all inclusive. So don’t hesitate to ask us about your event, wherever it’s located.

First world crusade:
To stop the tyrannical shortening of words unnecessarily.

Topics I respond well to in conversation:
80s action movies, 90s west coast rap, COPS the TV show, photography (this is a great default topic), and conversations about how George Lucas is ruining Star Wars.

I’m Josh. Without deliberately aging myself, I’ll tell you that I have enough knowledge on 80s and 90s pop culture to suggest that I may have actually grown up during that era. My favorite films are science fiction and action movies that have preposterous storylines, that the actors and director at the time took very seriously. I love music, gadgets, movies, and places that inspire you to be silent. When it comes to foods, I like gourmet kids’ menus. Friendship is hugely important to me, just ask my friends. I’m from San Diego - it’s a little town that borders Mexico. Want to know more? You can stalk me up on Twitter, Facebook, or my personal photography blog, a project I call Daily Mnemonic.

First world crusade:
To end the economic world crisis by single handedly stocking my closet with pretty little things. Specifically anything made by Kate Spade, Anthropology, Banana Republic or stocked at Nordstroms.

Topics I respond well to in conversation:
Television programming that airs on the CW, any show or book with vampires as the main characters, celebrity gossip, delicious food and beverages, and all things weddings!

I’m Melissa. I’m pretty much a sixteen year old girl stuck in an “older” body. My life theme song is “September” by Earth, Wind, and Fire. I am addicted to Pinterest and spend time on there everyday pinning my favorite wedding ideas, home decor inspiration, and fashion trends. I’ve recently discovered a passion for graphic arts and website development. I love great design and awesome typography. It’s my life’s goal to surround myself with pretty little things. I live to laugh and be silly. My favorite foods are mac & cheese and heirloom tomatoes and I make a killer nutella ice cream sundae. On my DVR you’ll find pretty much every show in the CW’s primetime line up, True Blood, and Criminal Minds. I know far too much about Twilight and Celebrity gossip. I subscribe to the life motto, “you get what you think about most of the time,” so I try to be open-minded, easy going, and positive. I’m happiest doing flips in a swimming pool. I’m from Rhode Island, the smallest state with the longest name. It’s true…you can Google it.
