Olympic National Park Beach Family Photography Sessions

If your dream family photos include bare feet, wind in your hair, and kids chasing waves, an Olympic National Park beach family photography session might be exactly what you’re looking for. These sessions are designed to be laid-back and kid-friendly, capturing real connection and joyful moments against the dramatic, beautiful coastline of Washington’s Olympic Peninsula.

Why Choose Olympic National Park Beach for Your Family Photos

• I recommend this location for all families but especially those with active kiddos. A beach is the perfect spot to get out wiggles and have incredible photos. Play is key!
• Your family will have fun here no matter what. Tide pools, fish, rocks, and sand will make sure of it!
• This location is really accessible from anywhere in the national park but great for airbnbs or camping!

Best Time of Year for Mt. Baker Family Sessions

The perk of this spot is that the weather really doesn’t matter. I have photographed sessions here with all types of clouds and sun and fog and it’s all beautiful!

What to Expect During Your Family Session

This session will be a little more wet and wild! (Depending on your ages of kids of course). We will get some posed photos at the beginning with the forest in the background and tall grass. Then get some coastline and sunset photos. By the end I will let the kids get wet (up to you of course) but these are always the best photos!

What to Wear for Olympic National Park Beach Family Photos

Gosh there are so many options for this location! I love a good flowy dress for a beach and water. Neutral colors work, and bold colors work. You could also go with rolled up jeans and t shirts. You really can’t go wrong.

Is Olympic National Park Beach Good for Young Kids?

This spot is PERFECT for young kids. I have never seen an unhappy kid at a beach have you?

Planning Your Own Family Photography Session

A family trip to the Port Angeles area is always a good idea. I am happy to help you plan a trip around your session or vice versa. I like to keep an eye on the tides at this location so we have more room to play on the beach so that may impact our dates and times. There is a fantastic campground and rv parking really close by as well.
