5 reasons my families love beach mini sessions // black and white
I love this family. They are one of my forever fams who I get to photograph all the time. I went to school with this cute mama here. We studied interior design together and worked in the design field for a bit together too! I just love old friends that love my work and support my photography biz. It’s such a great feeling!
We had the absolute BEST time during their session at Golden Gardens.
Why did they love it??
Golden Gardens Beach is iconic - ask anyone in the Seattle area for recommendations on a great beach for the fam and this is top of the list.
Golden Gardens is gorgeous - expansive views, the Olympics in the background, trees, nature, and refreshing PNW weather. What more could you ask for?!
The kids have a mission! In my 9 years of photographing families with small children and 5 years specializing in documentary family photography, I have found it helps so much if kids have an activity. They are less likely to have a melt down if they are focused on building a sandcastle, feeding the ducks, or finding the perfect rocks on the beach. Also, a huge plus, is that having a family activity helps facilitate REAL MOMENTS and candid photos.
Pet-friendly environment! - please bring your furry family members! it’s not only ok by me, but it’s also encouraged!
Yummy food - we can grab some ice cream or warm beverages at Ballard’s favorite Little Coney just a short drive (or long walk if you prefer) from the beach OR grab some yummy little dutch pancakes at Miri’s right on the beach.
So, if you’ve been way too busy to schedule family pictures, or you just keep putting them off because, LIFE, consider a golden gardens mini session. They are quick, easy, and build family memories like you wouldn’t believe!!
love your photographer,
Anna
