Last year I photographed this family in Santa Monica, surrounded by loads of color on grafitti walls.  If you missed the post, I wrote about it when I talked about how to choose a photo shoot location.  We were both inspired by the color and decided to take it a different route this year.  They chose bold punchy colors, which was highlighted with gorgeous light and tons of greenery.

If you’re around Palos Verdes and looking to take some family photos, definitely check out the South Bay Botanical Gardens.  The gardens are gorgeous 365 days a year!
