I’ve had the privilege of photographing the Tea family for a few years now, and every session is a new, heartwarming experience. For this family beach photoshoot in Newport Beach, we took advantage of the soft, golden hour light to capture the joy and connection of this beautiful family.

Newport Beach offers such a stunning backdrop for family portraits, from its picturesque dunes to the calm waves in the background. The warm, neutral tones of the Tea family’s wardrobe perfectly complemented the natural beach setting, creating timeless, candid moments that truly reflect their bond. This session was all about letting the kids be kids—running through the sand, laughing, and enjoying the fresh ocean breeze.

Why Choose Newport Beach for Family Photos?
Newport Beach is a favorite location for family sessions, thanks to its versatility and beauty. Whether it’s the golden light of sunset or the endless horizon of the ocean, it provides the perfect environment for families to interact naturally, which is exactly what I aim to capture in every session.

What better way to remember your vacation than having a photographer capture it for you? This mamma was visiting here from New Jersey with her adorable kiddos to catch some of that SoCal sunshine! It was so fun playing on the beach with them and capturing all the elements that remind us of the memories we make on beach vacation! For this Crystal Cove Vacation Session we built sandcastles, chased the waves and splashed around!

 I love giving the children in our session free roam to play and run around, capturing their real selves, their little but oh so BIG personalities as they interact with mom & dad in front my camera. Play is the key in a successful family session. Lots of tickling, chasing, jumping , splashing - I live to capture that raw beauty that lies within family connection. Sometimes asking a toddler or child to sit still and smile doesn't exactly give us a true memory of them at this age, this is why I feel its important to sing with them , giggle with them, ask them questions. This is how I capture family sessions, like a casual day with mom & dad at the beach.

THE MCGUIRE FAMILY | CRYSTAL COVE STATE PARK 

This sweet family came all the way from Salt Lake, Utah to visit sunny California! We decided to do our session at Crystal Cove State Park  to get those great rocky areas with a long open shore.   This location ended up being the best choice because the sunset was seriously breathtaking! The beach gave us all this incredible soft light with pastel tones in the sky like a watercolor painting. It was so dreamy ! These sweet boys were so excited to explore at the beach on their little vacation, and I loved capturing that excitement in their eyes. One of the greatest parts of my job is getting to witness children experience the beach for the first time. The sense of wonder in their eyes is always so neat to capture.  You can really feel the love between these brothers & their incredible brotherly bond. I absolutely loved this session!
