Orange County Family Photographer – Corona Del Mar

Corona Del Mar Beach Family Session – Orange County Family Photographer

This sweet family was staying at the Pelican Hill Resort and were referred to us for their family portrait. Thank you! We know there are a million choices when it comes to a Orange County family photographer in this area, so we appreciate your trust in our team! We let the family know about our favorite beach right down the street in Corona Del Mar and met them at the top of the hill! We loved the soft pinks and blues they wore on their outfits. The colors just popped through an unusually overcast evening. Below you will find some recommendations of things to do while visiting this area of Newport Beach.
