Laguna Beach Family Photographer

Our family sessions include a session fee plus a portrait collection, tailored to what you want most—digital images, fine-art prints, wall art, and custom albums. The session fee is $300 and collections start at $950. We’ll walk you through the options and help you choose the perfect collection to celebrate your family.

Most family sessions run about 60 to 90 minutes—relaxed and unhurried, with time to warm up, have fun, and capture a natural variety of groupings and candids. Extended-family sessions run a little longer to make room for every combination.

All over—from the beaches and coves of Laguna Beach to Newport Beach, Dana Point, open fields and parks, urban settings, and our natural-light studio. We’ll help you choose a location that fits your family’s style and the look you want.

Yes. Some of Orange County’s most popular beaches and parks require a photography permit, and the rules vary from one location to the next. As a long-time Laguna Beach resident, I know which spots need one, and I take care of the permit arrangements as part of planning your session, along with timing everything for the best golden-hour light and seasonal conditions. All you have to do is show up and enjoy.

We’ll send you styling guidance before your session. In general, coordinate rather than match—soft, complementary colors and a mix of textures photograph beautifully, and we’ll help you plan outfits that work with your location and the light.

Yes—professional hair and makeup can be added to your session, a lovely way to feel polished and camera-ready. Just let us know and we’ll arrange it.

Absolutely. We love big, multi-generational sessions, and well-behaved pets are always welcome—they’re part of the family. Extended-family sessions run a little longer so we can capture every grouping, including those priceless grandparent portraits.

Little ones are our specialty. We keep the pace easy and playful, follow their lead, and never force stiff poses—so you get genuine smiles and real connection instead of a meltdown. Relax and let us do the wrangling.

We recommend booking several weeks to a few months ahead, especially for fall and holiday-card season, which fills up fast. Orange County’s weather makes beautiful sessions possible year-round, so reach out whenever you’re ready and we’ll find your date.

Yes—retouched, high-resolution digital files, fine-art prints, heirloom wall art, and custom-designed albums are all available. We design each piece to capture your family and fit beautifully in your home.

It’s easy—reach out through our contact page and we’ll help you pick a date, talk through your vision, choose a location, and plan the details. From there, all you have to do is show up and enjoy.
