Dana Point Photography: A Day of Family Fun

Join me and my family on a fun photo excursion to Dana Point as I capture the sights with my Nikon Z8 and a 40mm and 85mm lens! We kick things off with a picnic by the marina, enjoying pepperoni pizza and delicious French pastries, including a blackberry tart, crème brûlée, and a Nutella croissant—all rated by my daughters, Bella and Giana.

As we explore, I take scenic shots around the marina, including a dog soaking in the ocean breeze, boats docked at the harbor, and a picturesque bridge with breezy views. Along the way, we discover wildlife, spotting a camouflaged squirrel, a distant bunny, a cool spider, and even a sea lion under a boat.

We also stop by the Richard Henry Dana sculpture and check out local murals and a photography gallery—which sparks inspiration for our own area. Wrapping up at Dana Point Beach, we enjoy fresh strawberries and reflect on a little miracle—finding my lost microphone after a prayer with Giana!

This trip was a blend of photography, family moments, and adventure—a reminder to appreciate the beauty around us. Thanks for coming along! Don’t forget to like and subscribe for more photo trips! 📸✨
