What's Your Favorite Beach at californiabeachphotos.com?

One of the most asked questions we've received in years of taking pictures of California beaches is "What's your favorite beach?" We have been asked this question so many times that we turned the tables and began asking other people. It turns out that everyone has a different answer. Though repeating themes are heard, the same words are seldom spoken twice. As you explore this website you will see that California's beaches are strikingly different ranging from flat, smooth sand to rocky cliffs dropping directly into the Pacific Ocean. As a hiker and camper you may prefer mountainous, tree-covered terrain. As a volleyball player you seek a smooth, wide sandy beach to set up your net and play a game.

The theme of this website is to find your own beach, your own truth, take your own pictures and make this photo journey an opportunity to learn. Our goal is to help you kick-start this adventure by sharing some of the things we've seen along the way.

Photo Regulations

Each city has different rules and regulations about taking portraits commercially at California beaches. Of course we know that low end photographers are looking to save a buck so they head to beaches with few or no fees and restrictions.

Sports Photography

Most beach sports photographers don't make a full time living in the trade, but they do have fun. Some of the best surf photographers, for instance, are surfers, themselves.
