Photographing the Ferreira family over the past seven years has been so fun and their most recent session at Blacks Beach was no exception. Even with a little coastal fog rolling in, the day was full of laughter, movement, and those authentic moments that make family photography so meaningful. We started among the greenery, grass, and trees to capture some warm, natural portraits, then moved down to the beach for candid shots of the family enjoying the sand and surf. Little Indy, their 1.5-year-old, brought her signature sass and energy, making the session lively and fun in all the best ways. Over the years, I’ve loved documenting their family’s growth, from small moments to big milestones, and each session has that relaxed, natural feeling that allows their personalities to shine. For families in Santa Cruz looking for a photographer who captures genuine, lifestyle moments in both beach and greenery settings, sessions like this one at Blacks Beach offer a perfect mix of scenery and candid connection.
