You booked the trip to Cabo for everyone — the grandparents, the kids, the cousins who never end up in the same place at the same time. A family session on the beach is how you keep it. Not stiff studio poses, but the real thing: your kids running into the waves, the light going gold, everyone actually laughing.
I'm Ana Badillo, and I've photographed families on the beaches of Los Cabos for years. Toddlers who won't sit still, newborns on their first trip, three generations together for the first time in a decade — I know how to make these sessions feel easy and fun, so the photos look like your family on its best, most relaxed day.
Sessions made for real families
Kids set the pace, and I follow it. I keep sessions moving, play instead of pose, and catch the in-between moments — the piggyback rides, the quiet hand-holding, the belly laughs. Grandparents feel comfortable, teenagers forget to be self-conscious, and the little ones get to be little.
The best light in Cabo is early morning or the hour before sunset, when the beach glows and the heat softens. I'll help you pick the right time and a location that fits your group — from Medano Beach to a quiet stretch near your resort.
What you get
Family galleries are quick — you'll have your beautifully edited images within a week, so you can print, share, and relive the trip while it's still fresh. Sessions work equally well for vacation portraits, maternity and newborn moments, extended-family reunions, and anniversary getaways.
"The best family photos aren't the ones where everyone's looking at the camera. They're the ones where you can feel how much you love each other."
Bilingual, local, and easy to plan with
Planning from the US and coordinating a session in Mexico can feel like one more thing on the list. It doesn't have to be. I'm fully bilingual and based right here in Cabo, so booking, timing, and location are simple. Send me your travel dates and how many people are in your group, and I'll take care of the rest.
