Planning Pictures Around Your San Diego Vacation

Are you ready to plan your family pictures around your upcoming San Diego vacation? Taking the time to plan ahead is key for making sure that your photos come out looking exactly how you want. Here are a few tips and tricks from your San Diego California family photographer for vacation picture success.

Avoid Scheduling at the end of vacation

If you’re planning on taking photos while on vacation in San Diego chances are you will be playing in the sun a lot! You don’t want your entire family sunburned. The sooner you take your pictures, the lower the chance of sunburn. Taking pictures sunburned is uncomfortable and makes for cranky people. It is also hard to move your body in natural positions for pictures. Schedule early on and stay hydrated!

Choose Your Activities Wisely

When mapping out your activities for each day of vacation plan which days will be best for taking photos. That way, if you have a particularly busy day planned—say, going to the zoo—you can choose another day with fewer activities involved that would be better suited for taking pictures. If possible, schedule a rest day. This will allow time to get ready, and rest.  Now you’ll have time to take all of your family photos without having to worry about being too tired from all of your sightseeing adventures.

Pick A Great Spot

Finally, make sure that you pick a great spot for taking pictures. San Diego offers some incredible scenery and breathtaking views that make perfect backdrops for family pictures. Here is a link to my favorite Southern California Locations. Whether you choose Balboa Park with its Spanish Colonial architecture and lush gardens or Mission Beach Boardwalk with its iconic pier. Picking a spot that is meaningful and special to your family will ensure those memories will live on forever!

Planning ahead is key when it comes to capturing perfect vacation memories. With just a little bit of forethought and planning you can ensure that your family looks their absolute best in their pictures. This way, every time you look back at these photos years down the line, they will evoke feelings of joy and nostalgia. So don’t forget—planning ahead is key when it comes to getting stellar shots during vacation! As your San Diego California family photographer I will make sure of it! Happy picture taking!
