Clark Family Sunset Session in Seaside

Today I’m so excited to introduce the beautiful Clark family! As their Seaside Family Photographer, I had the absolute pleasure of capturing this fun-loving crew during a tropical sunset along 30A. With warm temperatures, soft pastel skies, and emerald green water glowing behind them, it truly felt like a postcard. To make this evening even sweeter, the Clarks brought along their two adorable furry family members — and yes, the puppies stole the show.

A Tropical Sunset in Seaside

We met right before golden hour at one of the iconic beach pavilions in Seaside, where the light was warm, the breeze was perfect, and the Gulf was a stunning shade of emerald. Sunset sessions along 30A have such a magical quality, and the Clark family’s session was no exception — every frame had that dreamy beach glow.

A Family + Their Furry Friends

One of my favorite parts of being a Seaside family photographer is when clients ask to include their pets, and the Clark family did exactly that. Their two sweet pups posed like absolute pros! As a Maltipoo mom myself, I always get excited when furry friends join the session — they bring out the biggest, most genuine smiles and make the gallery feel so personal.

Coordinated, Coastal Style

The Clark family wore a perfect mix of soft blues, whites, and neutral tones that complemented the beach beautifully. Their outfit choices kept the focus on the family while letting the emerald water and pastel sunset shine. A simple, coordinated palette makes such a difference in beach portraits.

Why Families Love Seaside for Photos

Seaside is one of the most iconic spots along 30A, with its charming white pavilions, sugar-white sand, and emerald water that photographs gorgeously at sunset.

Thank you Clark family — can’t wait to see you (and the puppies!) again next year!
