Joy from San Francisco reached out to me while planning a trip to Los Angeles to visit her parents. She told me she had always wanted to “freeze” those natural and authentic moments with her kids when they were little but never had the chance. When her second baby was born, she was determined to have a few photos capturing her breastfeeding her baby.
They stayed at Terranea Resort, and it was the perfect backdrop.
With sweeping ocean views, golden light, and soft cliffs, Terranea creates a beautiful, natural setting for family portraits. The Chang Family’s laughter, hugs, and connection made every photo feel real and full of heart.
Family vacations are moments you want to remember forever, and documentary family photography preserves that joy exactly as it happened.
