The holidays are coming faster than you think. If The holidays are coming faster than you think. If you’re a family in Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, or Redondo Beach, you probably have “get updated family photos” on a list that’s been sitting there since last December. Picture it: next December, your holiday card is out, and instead of a blurry phone pic from Thanksgiving, you have a beautiful photo of your family exactly as they are right now — this age, this stage, this version of your kids you’ll never get back. That’s what today was about. Watch me working with this incredible family on the sand ~ real laughs, zero forced “say cheese” energy. For 17 years, I’ve been photographing families right here in the South Bay, and this time of year is still my favorite. 📍 “My kids won’t cooperate” — my sessions are built around real families, not stiff posing. The magic happens in between the “perfect” shots. 📍 “We’ll do it next year” — that’s what everyone says. And next year your baby isn’t a baby anymore. If you want photos that actually feel like your family, not stiff, not staged, just you — I’d love to be behind the camera for yours too. 👉 Link in bio to grab your date before spots are gone. Thank you to the incredibly talented @andibrookephoto for capturing and curating this beautiful video! #missymariephotography #manhattanbeachphotographer #hermosabeachphotographer #familyphotos
Kelsey! I just love a senior session that capture Kelsey! I just love a senior session that captures who they are right now—confident and so much fun.

DID YOU KNOW? While many people know me for famil DID YOU KNOW? While many people know me for family, senior, and event photography, I also specialize in Personal Branding Photography. So…what exactly is personal branding? It’s more than a headshot. A branding session is designed to capture who you are, what you do, and what makes your business unique. These images become the face of your website, social media, marketing materials, speaking engagements, and more. Recently, I photographed a therapist creating a new website. Instead of stiff, traditional headshots, we created a collection of warm, professional images that tell her story and help future clients feel connected before they even reach out. Whether you’re a therapist, realtor, designer, coach, consultant, or small business owner, your photos should work as hard as you do. Ready to elevate your brand? I’d love to help you create images that reflect the heart of your business. Serving Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Palos Verdes, and the greater Los Angeles area. #missymariephotography #manhattanbeachphotographer #personalbrandingphotographer

Class of 2027… this one’s for you! Senior year wi Class of 2027… this one’s for you! Senior year will fly by, and your yearbook photo is the first little piece of this incredible year you’ll get to keep. Whether you’re going for classic, fun, sporty, artsy, or somewhere in between — your session should feel like YOU. I love creating senior photos that feel natural, confident, and timeless (and yes… the ones your parents will actually want framed 😉). Now planning ahead for Class of 2027 senior yearbook sessions — perfect for private school yearbooks, announcements, and capturing this milestone before the year gets busy. Looking forward to seeing you! Link in bio Missy Marie Photography #missymariephotography #manhattanbeachphotographer #hermosabeachphotographer
When one graduation isn’t enough… you celebrate TW When one graduation isn’t enough… you celebrate TWO Bruins. 💙💛 Loved getting to capture these brothers as they close out their UCLA years and step into what’s next. The pride, the laughs, the family moments — this is exactly why I love what I do. #missymariephotography #uclagradphotos #hermosabeachphotographer
Just when you thought I only photographed seniors… Just when you thought I only photographed seniors… 😉 A little reminder that I love capturing all kinds of milestones — and this Bar Mitzvah was such a special one. From a meaningful ceremony to an unforgettable celebration with an incredible family and the best energy… this day was full of so many moments worth remembering. @weplantheparty #missymariephotography #manhattanbeachphotographer
