Endless Summer Family Session | Long Beach Family Photographer
Although Summer is officially over, the weather the past few weeks has been spectacular. We had a few days of cold weather and then a stretch of 80 degree days crept in. I welcomed the warm weather, not only because I prefer warmer days, but also because I had a few nights of family beach sessions on my calendar for this month.
This client was originally on my calendar for a newborn session in the Spring. Due to the COVID closures, I was unable to photograph her, so I was super excited to finally be able to meet this family and capture some two month old photos of her baby. We originally had our session scheduled a few days earlier, but the weather was a frigid 62 degrees, so we decided to use the rain date instead. We made the right choice because not only was the weather spectacular, but so was the sunset.
Wardrobe can often be a challenge for some moms and they can sometimes struggle to find the right attire for their session. I always suggest choosing outfits that are polished, but in which you feel comfortable. You should always go with outfits that really represent your family’s style. This mom nailed it! I absolutely love the color palette she selected for her family. The white paired with soft burgundy hues and navy tones work to bridge the gap between Summer and Fall, which is exactly what the month of September entails. She chose adorable outfits for the children from Zara, that photographed beautifully. Zara is such a great source for children’s clothing. It photographs beautifully and lasts for years.
Big sister was a dream to photograph. She was super friendly, followed directions and, best of all, was full of laughter. It was obvious how much she loved her baby brother and was super sweet to watch her kiss him and cuddle him.
The family was so fun to work with and I just love their gallery of images. Here are a few of my favorite images from this fun filled session.
If you are interested in a session, contact me. I open booking for beach sessions in February and they are scheduled June to September.
