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.

It was such a joy to capture the Parthemer Family during their in-home newborn session. As a Newport Beach newborn photographer, I’m always reminded of the beauty and serenity that comes with welcoming a new life into a family. This session felt extra special, with their home filled with warmth and love as they embraced the newest addition to their family. Capturing the quiet moments of connection between their little one and older sibling was truly heartwarming.

One of the things I love most about newborn sessions is documenting the natural and genuine interactions between family members in the comfort of their own space. The Parthemers shared so many sweet moments, from gentle cuddles to laughter. Their fur-sibling, a loyal family pet, even made an appearance, reminding me how important pets are to family life. Including pets in these sessions always brings out a bit of extra personality, and it’s a wonderful way to make sure everyone is included in the family photos.

As an Orange County newborn photographer, it’s a privilege to capture these early days when the world seems to stand still, yet the moments are fleeting.

It’s always an honor capturing other fellow photographers in the industry , but especially this mamma. Chloe, (of Chloe Moore Photography) glows as a wife and mamma, and her radiating joy makes a room light up. Call it cheesy or whatever, but when you scroll thru her family memories, you will see she’s full of laughter, kindness and joy. I’m telling you - you will feel it. Not to mention, this family has incredible home decor style, lots of seeping light and lots of LOVE - the opportunity to capture the gorgeous pockets of light in their home amongst them tickeling, snuggling, and playing, as well as witnessing their love for their fur-babies… well it was was one for the books ya’ll. Definitely going down as a favorite lifestyle session .
