Capturing Connection and Chaos: A Family of Five at Coxhall Gardens in Carmel

This session had it all—giggles, running, climbing, and lots of love.

Photographing families with three kids always keeps me on my toes. But that’s part of what I love most. The chaos usually leads to the best moments.

We met at Coxhall Gardens in Carmel. It’s one of my favorite spots. There’s open space for the kids to run and explore. Plus, the light here is just beautiful in the evenings.

This crew showed up ready to play. The boys had big energy. The littlest one was curious and quick. And Mom and Dad just leaned in and had fun with it all.

We got a great mix of images—everyone smiling, the kids chasing each other, parents cuddling, and lots of real connection.

These kinds of sessions aren’t about perfection. They’re about letting kids be themselves and capturing what your family is like right now.

It was a joy to photograph this bunch and freeze these wild, happy moments for them.
