Best Locations for Family Photos in Los Angeles

Los Angeles offers endless options for stunning family photo locations. The key is choosing a spot that fits your family’s vibe.

Beaches like Manhattan Beach and Santa Monica are perfect for airy, relaxed sessions with soft light and open space. Parks like Griffith Park or Palisades Park offer greenery, trails, and scenic backdrops without feeling too formal.

For families who love a more urban look, downtown LA and Arts District locations provide texture, architecture, and character. If you want something quieter and more intimate, smaller neighborhood parks often work beautifully and are less crowded.

When choosing a location, consider lighting, accessibility, and how your kids typically behave in new environments. I help every family pick the right spot so the session feels easy and fun.
