Family Photoshoot | Crystal Cove State Park, Newport Beach, Ca.

I’ve photographed a ton of families in my life. I’ve witnessed the shy, the awkward, the outgoing, the pretty, and the indifferent. I’ve walked away from photoshoots feeling completely drained and I’ve had times when I didn’t want the session to end. All of that being said, I have to admit that the Marci family truly falls into a category of their own. I’d like to think that I can pin point exactly to the reason why, but I’m afraid I’ll miscategorize. I’m terrified to simply toss them into some superficial bin of “this is what makes a family work”. Or maybe I’m spot on. Maybe once in a while a family comes along and everything about them makes perfect sense. Their look, their energy, and their dynamic. All those traits combined call for a certain label. They call for a trademark of sorts. An in this instance let that mark be known as The Marci Effect.
