Newport Beach Pier
Why I love this beach…
Newport Beach Pier is synonymous with the quintessential Southern California beach experience, featuring wide stretches of pristine sandy beaches and a historic wooden pier stretching out into the sparkling Pacific Ocean. This is a perfect spot for families, offering ample space for kids to run around and play along the sandy shores. Whether it's building sandcastles, flying kites, or splashing in the waves, children of all ages will delight in the endless recreational opportunities available at this iconic beach destination. Incorporating candid moments of family fun into your photography session will add authenticity and joy to your images.
Timing Matters
The best time for photography sessions at Newport Beach Pier is during the non-summer months, particularly at sunset. During this time, the crowds are thinner, and the soft, golden light of the setting sun bathes the pier and coastline in a warm and flattering glow, creating a magical ambiance for your photographs.
Things to Consider
While Newport Beach Pier offers easy access to its sandy beaches and pier, parking can be challenging, especially during the summer months and peak tourist seasons. It's recommended to arrive early or consider alternative transportation options to secure parking for your photography session. Additionally, be prepared to pay for parking at designated lots or meters near the pier.
