Reggie, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
AS A NATIVE SAN DIEGAN, I COULDN’T HELP BUT LOVE AND APPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF “AMERICA’S FINEST CITY”.

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Overall yes towards running my business and serving my clients.

The biggest struggle is staying competitive with software/mobile apps and iPhones

Please tell us about Reggie Toledo Design.
I specialize in portraits and event photography.

I’m most proud of going to Capetown, South Africa with the Rock Church and doing outreach for the prisons, orphanages, and townships.

My efforts towards ministry and helping the homeless in San Diego. I often provide free services to many of the non-profit agencies that cater towards addiction and the homeless.

Do you look back particularly fondly on any memories from childhood?
My favorite memory would be cooking big breakfast Saturday/Sunday with my father on the weekends.

Throwing nickels onto the Skating Rink at UTC and watching people fall.
