Laguna Beach Family Photography: The Potalivo Family

Pam called me up saying she had been dreaming of getting great family portraits for years.  After visiting to her niece’s house and admiring the Blue Sky’s portraits on the wall, she decided to make the call.  She was a little worried as her guys were all grown and had their own ideas about clothing and style, but she decided to go ahead and book a session.

Fast forward a few months to a gorgeous afternoon with huge waves on a beautiful beach in Laguna and we had the perfect day for her family portraits.  After her oldest threatened to wear a vintage hawaiian shirt, she was pleasantly surprised when he showed up in a nice dress shirt and jeans.

My favorite part of this photo session was how much warmth and love this family showed to one another and how willing they were to follow my directions, even when they were a little unsure of the results.  Thanks to the whole family for working with me and I hope you enjoy the portraits! :)
