Just a few of my FAVORITE spots to do Beach Photo Shoots on the Island!
When planning a family photo shoot many of my clients rely on me to suggest the perfect spot for their memorable photos while visiting Galveston! I am always trying to make things convenient for my clients, especially those with multi family members or small children. Although I have my FAVORITE places to shoot I also do ON LOCATION shoots where I meet you where you are staying when renting beach front homes. Here are some of my favorite spots and samples of photos in each location. You can choose what fits your style and vision best for your family photo shoot.
Here are some more great tips for WHAT TO WEAR for your beach session!
Here are some more great tips for WHAT TO WEAR for your beach session!
BEACHTOWN |
Beachtown is a quaint little beach front community on the East End of the Island. It has so much character with beautiful landscaping, picturesque white mini pavilion and walking bridge leading to the beach.
APFFEL ROAD
This is a wonderful place at the East End of the Island. It is mostly secluded and you can conveniently park right next to the beach. This spot yields the best sunsets! Enjoy fluffy sand, driftwood for sitting, yellow flowers and dunes plus a beautiful backdrop lined with palm trees!
POCKET PARK 2 |
Pocket Park 2 is located at 11745 San Luis Pass Road on Galveston’s West End. It has convenient parking near the beach and outdoor showers to rinse off your feet. There is a nice wooden covered pavilion for shade and wooden stairs for photos along with sandy trails leading to the beach!
BEACHSIDE VILLAGE
This spot is a secret treasure, surrounded by beautiful and colorful coastal beach homes. So much versatility in one spot for the perfect family photos! Featuring green grass with large pond, palm trees and island flowers, wooden boardwalk to the beach, soft and fluffy sandy trails, large driftwood and secluded access to the beach for the perfect family pics!
JIMMY'S PIER
Jimmy's Fishing Pier has a wonderful covered area for gorgeous photos providing some shade. The pylons make for interesting photos with the sea as your backdrop! Beautiful sunset area! The large mossy rocks lends a special magical touch to your photos!
PLEASURE PIER |
Photos under the Pleasure Pier are vacationers favorites!!! In additional to being in the shade it makes for beautiful photos. Photos with the colorful Pleasure Pier in the background and shots out on the jetties are also popular in this area.
POINTE WEST |
For vacationers staying on the far West End of the Island, Pointe West is a great spot to meet for photos! There is much versatility and options here for photos. Offering grassy trails, rustic wooden boardwalk to the sea, wooden steps, sandy trails and beautiful sand dunes. This is a very secluded spot and great for multi family photo shoots and there always seems to be driftwood on the beach for gorgeous photos. This spot is also one of the best for beautiful sunset photos.
ON LOCATION
There are so many beautiful beach rentals on the Island and lots of families choose to stay in beach front homes. For larger families staying in beach front homes it is sometimes convenient to meet at your beach rental and take photos at the beach at your location.

Common Questions asked by my clients to help prepare for their beach photo shoot :)
- (Q) WHAT ARE THE BEST COLORS TO WEAR FOR BEACH PHOTOS?
- (A) I suggest use a basic neutral theme like gray & white, black & white, blue jean & white or khaki & white and accent it with a complimentary color for accents. Don't get too crazy with different patterns. Keep it simple, blended but fun.
Here's some sample color palettes I like :)
- (Q) WHAT IS THE BEST TIME OF DAY FOR BEACH PHOTOS?
- (A) I prefer shooting in the late evening or early morning for the best skies and less blinding light. This cuts down on squinting and shadows on the faces. If I had my way I would shoot on an overcast day!
- (Q) SHOES OR NO SHOES?
- (A) I prefer keeping it natural at the beach :) Kick those shoes to the side and feel the sand on your toes!
- (Q) WHERE TO TAKE BEACH PHOTOS IN GALVESTON?
- (A) I like to keep it simple and convenient for my clients. Most families rent beach homes on the West End of the Island during their stay so I like to meet you where you stay and just walk on over to the beach. Some of my favorite beach spots are under the Pleasure Pier, Beachtown, Point West or Pocket Park 2.
DON'T FORGET THE SUNSCREEN!!!!!
The worst thing is to have a nasty sunburn on the day of your photos!!!
