Dog Family Portraits at the Beach

Dog Family Portraits_Family of Three_Debbie Markham Photography

Dog family portraits at the beach are so fun to shoot, especially with an adorable pet! This family of three were on vacation from Southern California when they decided to hire me for an hour photo session at San Simeon’s. These shoots feel like hanging out with friends at the beach!

Feel the sand between your toes, laugh as your dog runs around, climb ocean front cliffs and hug each other for great photo ops.  After all this fun quality family time, you get to keep approximately 100 sweet dog family portraits that will make you smile for years to come!  I feel so blessed to capture these moments in time for such a beautiful family, and one adorable dog.

Anniversary_Photo Shoot_Solvang_ Couple Photography _Santa Ynez_Santa Barbara_Santa Ynez

We drove around Santa Ynez and Solvang to find the perfect locations for Niki and Jeff’s couple photography session. There are so many locations in California that would be stunning backgrounds to any romantic or family photo shoot. Solvang and Santa Ynez are just two of many amazing locations to share your couples photography session. Niki and Jeff perfectly illustrate how beautiful these photo sessions can be. This fun filled couple is so gorgeous and in love; it radiates through their pictures.  How do I keep getting so lucky sharing time with these lovely couples? I love my job!

Surprise Proposal Photography in Cambria, Ca { Engagement Destination }

Surprise Proposal overlooking Moonstone Beach in Cambria

Hiring a photographer to capture your surprise proposal (if you ask me) is THE BEST decision you can make!!!  A few weeks after each one, most couples email me saying how much they cherish their photos and how amazing it is to re-live that moment and see the joy between them.

It’s so fun for me to connect with the person planning it, and to help map out an exact location with great views that’s private and uniquely special to them.  Then pretending I’m a tourist just taking photos of the ocean or wildlife, while they stroll along, waiting for the big moment, is really exhilarating.  I LOVE being a surprise proposal photographer!  Capturing authentic reactions and beautiful engagement photos which exude such joy is the BEST!!!!

This blog post features another beautiful example of true love between Pooja + Devesh!
