Family Portraits at Rio Del Mar Beach

Rio Del Mar Beach was the pick for this one, and the coast delivered: soft light, room to run, and a horizon that never gets old.

Kids set the schedule on shoots like this and that is by design. We chase the energy while it is up, rest when it dips, and the parents get photographs of their family actually enjoying each other.

Somewhere down the line these photos become the ones pulled out at graduations and weddings. Rio Del Mar Beach will look exactly like this in them.

Location: Rio Del Mar Beach (Aptos)

The whole shoot, not just the highlights

Here’s a few highlights from this shoot. Most photographers only ever show a static portfolio of their very best images. I think every potential client should see more than that: the full shoots themselves. Nothing sets expectations like seeing multiple sessions at one location in different weather, times of day, and seasons. We get amazing photos no matter what, and we’re not afraid to show you.
