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!

The Parker's Family Session at Shaw’s Cove, Laguna Beach was just breathtaking! The light was to die for and don’t even get me started on their stylish outfits!  (This is why I stress to all my families to please coordinate wardrobes carefully and be open to suggestions from your photographer because it can make such a huge difference in the outcome of photos, let me be the one tell you!) Here they first went with punchy reds & greys in solids and kept it real simple but eye catching! The second wardrobe palette they chose neutrals, those soft cremes, pinks & greys. I just loved this session so much because sweet little Landon (age 2yr) was full of personality and such a ham in front of the camera! This family was very interactive as they tickled, chased and played with their munchkins. I love to capture raw moments like this, it truely makes for the best memories. 

Thank you to Danielle & Kelly for allowing me to capture your sweet family!
