Planning your senior session for the beach?

Most of our beach sessions for seniors as well as families are created at Windansea Beach in La Jolla. If you’re planning a senior session at the beach, here are a few ideas and tips…

* The weather at the beach creates very different backgrounds. Sometimes, there will be beautiful sunsets, other times fog or bright sun. We’ll always pick the best spots and backgrounds to enhance that day’s feeling.

* Late in the afternoon, you can bring your dog to the beach as a buddy. If you plan to do so, please be sure to let us know!

* Would you like to wear a swimsuit, or your prom dress, or any other change? Windansea is a surfer’s beach, and it lacks amenities! Such as a restroom or a place to change. Plan to layer your clothes, and remember – sometimes waves come in even when you don’t WANT to be wading in the surf. If you want to avoid getting wet, we’ll work a lot further away from the water. 

If you have some special idea of what you’d like to do, let your photographer know. If you’d like them to be creative with their own ideas, that’s good, too. Let’s make this a fun experience for all of us!
