The Tiners: Shaw Cove Family Session

A LAGUNA BEACH FAMILY SESSION

I met up with Andrew, Sarah, and Jane at one of our favorite beaches - Shaw’s Cove. It was a summer night, so of course it was a little busy, but we still had so much fun. We let Jane do her thing and we followed her around, which led to lots of candids and such sweet family moments. I’ve found it’s so much better to let the kids pose (if we’re doing posed shots) and run around so it doesn’t even feel like we’re taking photos. You’ll walk away with so many beautiful photos like these.

Pearl St Laguna Beach Family Session

A LAGUNA BEACH FAMILY SESSION

Krystill’s family was in town and she wanted to do a little shoot to document it! They planned a beach day at Pearl St beach in Laguna Beach and I met them there for a fun lifestyle family session. She prepped me beforehand by saying it would likely be hard to get all of the kids together for a posed photos and she was more excited for candid photos. I didn’t realize how much I would enjoy a lifestyle family session like this, especially since the parents didn’t expect posed photos. We let the kids run wild and I just snapped away! It was probably the most fun I’ve ever had on a family session and they loved the photos.

Family photos don’t have to be super posey or feel stale, but instead can be really fun and document you as a family in your day to day life. This was just a fun beach day they had planned and they wound up getting beautiful photos out of it!
