Dana Point Harbor
We will walk the harbor and learn about it's history, fascinating stories and I will take fun photos of your group along the way. There are 2 different options for the walk: Option 1- we will meet at the parking Structure off of Golden Lantern St. and walk the whole harbor. It is around 2.5 miles and takes about 2 hours. Option 2- we will meet by the Ocean Institute at fisherman’s pier and walk the west side and over the bridge. This walk is 1 1/2 miles a takes around 1 hour. Both walks include candid photos as well as a portrait session over looking the Pacific Ocean. This is a fun, scenic, and informative casual walk. You will receive 50+ photos (candid and posed- professionally edited) I am very flexible, we can vary the walk according to your group and ability. There are restrooms along the way as well as a coffee shop for refreshments. This is a family and kid friendly walk.

We LOVE Lezlie!!! We had such a blast. The tour was so fun and engaging, Dana Point is stunning and Lezlie had so many fun facts and made learning so fun! She made us feel SO comfortable while she took our photos during the tour and even helped us with poses. We will definitely be framing some of our photos. She met us right outside the parking structure and was waiting for us when we arrived. She even gave us a ton of tips and recommendations for the rest of our stay in Dana Point! We just loved it!!!

Beautiful location with interesting history and features. 2 1/2 hr great waking tour with family - parents, kids and 2 grandkids. Leader was informative, pleasant and wonderfully flexible based on needs, interests, and walking ability of group/grandkids. Photos are an added bonus.

Lezlie was an exceptional Dana Point Harbor tour host! What a fun day with our family. We brought 4 small children on her tour and had a blast exploring the harbor, creating fun memories, and hearing fun facts about the historic site as we strolled. We now have many, many beautiful keepsake photos from an extraordinary afternoon! Lezlie’s warmth, care, patience with my children, and fun behind the camera made such an incredible day for my family! Thank you Lezlie!

My wife and I booked Lezlie for a walking tour around the beautiful Dana Point Harbor. We saw that she took stunning photos and have been looking to get some great shots for holiday cards, all while getting to learn the history of such a beautiful town. Lezlie made taking photos feel really easy and natural and we just got be ourselves while she captured some great shots. Lezlie is really knowledgeable about the area and it was fun to learn about the harbor while taking in the gorgeous ocean scenery. My wife and I had a great time enjoying the scenery while lezlie took some great shots. Some were candid while we were enjoying time together and some were posed which gave us a good mix. Lezlie would pause and adjust her settings every now and again depending on the lighting which made us feel like she really knew her way around the camera and the results speak for themselves. I would definitely recommend this experience, especially if you are a lover of great photos.

This was a fantastic experience all around. We were visiting for our 10th anniversary and the weekend was forecast to be rainy the entire time. Lezlie kept in close contact the whole way and was so flexible with us! The morning of our walk she saw that the forecast showed a possible break in the rain that afternoon so she suggested we could wait until then & give it our best shot even if it turned into photos in the rain. She suggested we drive between places to avoid getting caught in downpour. It turned out to be the perfect plan, and we ended up being blessed with beautiful weather! We had so much fun seeing the different locations and hearing all of her knowledge on Dana Point. She made the entire experience so enjoyable. I’m much more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it but she helped us through the posing and we came out with some great shots that we will cherish forever. This was the highlight of our anniversary trip and we highly recommend Lezlie & this experience to any and all who are interested in seeing Dana Point and learning some of its history. Receiving beautiful pictures at the end is such a gift - often all we have are “selfies” - was nice to put down the phone and leave the photos in someone else’s very capable hands! Thanks again, Lezlie!

This was 100% worth the investment. We had the best day and now we have incredible, professional photos of our trip! Lezlie was excellent and so easy to work with. She has exceptional knowledge of the Dana Point area and and took us to the most beautiful, photogenic locations. She did a great job of both capturing our genuine moments, as well as helping us pose for some really cool shots. Our pictures turned out even better than we imagined! My wife and I both HIGHLY RECOMMEND Lezlie's Walking Photo Tour to anyone wishing to make and capture a fun memory in the south Orange County area. We just wish we could take her on all of our vacations!

I just completed the photoshoot walk in Dana Point, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From start to finish, this was an exceptional experience that exceeded all our expectations. Our guide, Lezlie, was absolutely phenomenal - she was incredibly kind, very knowledgeable about the area, and a truly talented photographer. She made us feel completely comfortable throughout the walk while capturing the most stunning photos. We now have beautiful memories of our Southern California trip. If you're considering booking this tour, don't hesitate! It's certainly worth every penny. Whether you're a local looking to see Dana Point from a new perspective or a visitor wanting professional photos in a gorgeous setting, this is a must-do experience. Thank you to our wonderful guide, Lezlie, for making this such a memorable day!

Lezlie was an incredible guide. We had SO much fun, learned about Dana point, and now have amazing photos to remember our adventure. I wasn't sure what to expect, and sometimes feel uncomfortable posing in front of a camera. Lezlie did a great job making us both feel comfortable and giving us direction so that she could capture the best photos of us. If you're sick of asking a random passerby to take a single bad photo of you on vacation, it's time to hire a professional! I highly recommend booking with Lezlie! (Pro tip: Wear shoes you can walk in) It's like a 3 for 1 special, great tour guide, great hang, great photos!
