After a rough winter in Melbourne, it finally feels like Spring is in the air – yay! The warmer weather forecasted this weekend has got us thinking about our upcoming summer family portrait shoots, specifically those at the beach. If you’re a sand-loving family, we have a few tips for a successful beach session and the most important to get right is the timing…

Which brings me to the question, when was the last time you went to the beach at 7.30am? Trust us, it’s absolutely stunning!

Nicole and Damon had previous done two studio shoots with their family, but an outdoors session had been on their to-do list for ages.

Along with 7-year-old identical twins Heidi and Abbie and brother Declan, we had such a ball with these guys at Black Rock beach.

Nicole described the girls as both loving basketball, swimming and dancing. Heidi is a mother-hen, helpful personality who loves ballet, while Abbie is more headstrong and hip hop is her dance style of choice.

Declan might only be four years old, but he is the old soul of the family who is entertaining, gregarious, funny and super friendly.
