What better way to start the new year than by capturing the beauty of new life? This sweet couple celebrated their growing family with a dreamy maternity photoshoot at Oxnard Shores Beach, just outside Ventura. After having to reschedule due to stormy weather, we lucked out with the most incredible sunny day—clear skies, golden light, and a gentle ocean breeze that made every moment feel magical. The soft waves and sandy dunes created the perfect backdrop for their maternity session.


Oxnard Shores is a hidden gem for maternity photos, offering a peaceful stretch of coastline just 40 minutes from Santa Barbara. The combination of golden-hour glow and grass covered dunes brought out the most stunning, heartfelt moments between these two. If you're dreaming of a beach maternity session with a warm, natural aesthetic, this spot is definitely worth considering!
