seattle lifestyle photographer - golden gardens mini sessions

I met this sweet family at the beach for a gorgeous morning of fall photos in October.

We took a few family portraits, some of all three of them, some of mom with baby girl and some of her with dad. After that, we just let her lead the way! Down to the beach to play in the sand, throw rocks in the water and jump off driftwood logs — into mama’s loving arms. The beach is a playground to this lovely girl and she is giving it her all!

I would love to meet your family at Golden Gardens for pictures at the beach this year. We will make sure to get those frame worthy portraits. And we will also get those magical candid moments that only come from family time and togetherness.

LOVE YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER,

Anna

Golden Gardens Park: the best family photography location

Let's talk about Golden Gardens for a sec, because if you've followed me for any amount of time, you already know this place has my whole heart.

Every fall (and honestly, all year round) I find myself pulling into that parking lot again and again, and I never get tired of it. There's just something about that stretch of Seattle shoreline that makes every single session feel a little magical.

Seattle Family Photography location: Golden Gardens

Golden Gardens faces west, which means it's practically made for sunset sessions. As the sun drops toward the Olympics across the Sound, the light turns soft, warm, and a little hazy in the best possible way. It bounces off the water and wraps around everyone in the frame. I've photographed a lot of sunsets over the years, and there's just something about the way the light behaves here — it's forgiving, flattering, and endlessly photogenic.

One of the most exciting things about being a lifestyle and documentary photographer is the opportunity to create a connection with my clients and become a part of their lives for a brief moment in time. I love getting to know each of you, hearing your stories, and being able to capture the essence of who you are through my photographs.

People are always asking me about mini sessions. I get it. Your kids are growing like weeds. Your life is busier than you ever thought possible. And maybe that day in the life session that your heart is longing for, just always seems slightly out of budget.
