So if you follow along on our Insta-stories you know my boyfriend Phillip and I just got an amazing pup named Franklin. For whatever reason around the same time we’ve been trying to get into travel blogging! It’s been a fun challenge navigating how to travel and shoot with a doggo. Luckily we were able to stay at the new photo & pup friendly Pendry Hotel! It’s located in the heart of Downtown San Diego, super close to a bunch of amazing spots.

My friend Alden was having an event at the hotel that weekend so we figured we would take advantage of the trip and turn it into a mini staycation! Check out some of our photos below as well as a breakdown of the places we went to and recommend!
