This is the 4th year that I have organized community beach days!
It started in 2018 with wanting to go with a big group to the beach. I grew up doing this with family as a child and then with friends as a teenager. As a parent to one child who loves doing this with her friends and making new friends- playdates are really important to us! I also love to meet other parents in my community because parenthood is best [only] done with support.
This is a bring your own experience. Pack your beach gear and snacks/lunch as we join in together on the sand. I usually aim to get a spot on Bolsa Chica State Beach near tower 21-22. Entrance to Bolsa Chica State Beach is $15 and I like it because parking is very close to the sand area and is usually very abundant, unlike many beach areas. You can get a State Park pass from your local library and not pay any fee! If this fee is a hinderance for you, please reach out and I will support with getting you a pass for the day!
Every family that attends will recieve a complimentary family portrait or portriat of your child playing. A signed photo release is required for this.
I am a Santa Ana rasied Family, Birth and Brand photographer and I work with local families to capture life and parenthood as your personal biographer to preserve the most important years of your child's life. Learn more about my services at Karissa M Raya.
