Manhattan Beach Family Photos

The Hough Family!

Sean and Abigail have called Manhattan Beach home for years, but now they are parents which means happy hour dates have turned into changing poopy diapers days. Kids are nuts, and as the father of two myself, I can tell you firsthand how cool it is to be a parent. Life-changing events like having kids really changes your perspective on the world and that is a good thing. The crazy thing about the Hough family is that 4 years ago I shot Sean and Abigail’s engagement photos at the same location! Four years earlier at the same spot, we were talking about their wedding, and then fast forward to this day and the conversation was about Paw Patrol and snacks. Life comes at you fast sometimes!

Sean and Abigal planned on moving back east to Connecticut and before they left they wanted some family photos at a place that had a strong place in their heart: the Manhattan Beach Pier. Below are some of the images from our time together.

Photographer Manhattan Beach

I think it is super important to document your life. Time moves so fast, and more so when we have kids. That is why investing in professional photography is so important. Unfortunately, I only take on a small number of events from wedding photography to newborn photography. That means my calendar is very full, limiting the number of family sessions I can do each year. I want to meet you and your family and give you kick-ass, colorful, candid photos, but if for some reason I can’t please check out these photographers who service Orange County, South Bay, Huntington Beach, and locations in the area:
