As Cute As It Gets

My popular beach session features two hours plus at the beach following the gorgeous late afternoon light into the last rays of the sunset! The session takes place at the breathtaking and scenically diverse Aliso Creek Beach in Laguna in Orange County. Aliso Creek features everything you could want in a beach session. Rocks everywhere to sit upon, stunning seascapes behind you in every portrait, gorgeous cliffs, quaint coves, and fun tidepools. I almost forgot to mention it features one of OC's most renowned giant rock formations. I’ve been to almost every beach in OC, and this beach is my favorite for sessions!
 
              
Having a long session at the beach has so many advantages...
 
  • Families can do TONS of poses...some traditionally posed, some photojournalistic in feel...like everyone walking along the shore hand in hand, some just plain cute like everyone writing their first names and/or your last name in the sand, or having your feet all lined up to accent how big your feet are compared with the smaller feet in the family! We also can do every combination you can think of in additional to the whole family...mom and the kids, dad and the kids, the kids together, each child individually and even mom and dad together! We have so much time that I try everything...portraits laying on your tummies, kids jumping off rocks, dipping feet in the water, kids picking up shells and seaweed...you name it!
  • Kids have plenty of breaks...who expects them to not play at the beach?!? We can feed the seagulls in between takes. Or count washed up mussel shells. Or watch the sandpipers race against the waves breaking. Or draw pictures in the sand. Watching the surfers and skimboarders never gets dull. This beach is the only beach I ever see dolphins and sea lions at too. It is pretty fun when we spot them! The photo sessions at the beach are so relaxing for parents because kids are just thrilled to be there and are absolutely in the best of moods.
  • Outfits can be changed (and different themes are available for the kids if you want...to name a few... my mermaid, hula or surfer outfits and props are a blast...or if you want to stay more traditional...my white sundresses for girls or denim overalls for boys along with seashells and steel buckets)
