Style and Creativity for Family Photos

What sets Southbay-Headshots apart is Randy's commitment to infuse style and creativity into every portrait session. Families shouldn't have to settle for generic, cookie-cutter images. Instead, they can embrace the opportunity to showcase their personalities through portraits that reflect their individuality. Whether it's a whimsical studio set or a more formal setting with a traditional background, Randy prepares for each session so it will suit the tastes and preferences of the family, ensuring a unique and personalized experience. Gone are the days of stiff and posed family portraits. We thrive on eclecticism, turning each session into a collaborative journey between photographer and family. This approach results in headshots that are not only visually stunning but also authentically reflective of the family's spirit. The photographer's ability to capture spontaneous and genuine moments adds a timeless quality to the images, making them cherished keepsakes for generations to come.

Outdoor Family Portraits

We also go on location to your family's favorite Southbay spots. Winter is a great time of year to shoot. The sun moves across the southern sky creating great dramatic backlight no matter what time of day. Of course late evening sun at the beach is also pretty dramatic. Call to discuss your family size and location for an estimate.

Casual, Dress Casual or Formal for Family Portraits?

This is a question we get more often than any other. The answer just depends on your crew. If you all are alike, pick something that is color coordinated. If everyone has a unique style, have fun with it, but pick similar tones.We always feel that you should bring more than less and have no problem with having multiple variations from which to choose. It becomes a fun part of the photo shoot and we embrace it!
