Family photographer
in Temecula
I'm Christina Scheumack — a family portrait photographer serving Temecula and the surrounding wine country. Temecula's vineyards, rolling hills, and Old Town charm make it one of the most beautiful and romantic settings in all of Southern California for family portraits. My sessions are warm, relaxed, and designed to capture your family's real, irreplaceable moments.

FAQ
How far in advance should I book?
4–6 weeks is ideal, especially for fall and holiday sessions which fill quickly.
What if my kids won't cooperate?
This is my specialty. I work at the kids' pace, make it a game, and catch the real moments in between. Some of the best family photos happen when kids are being themselves.
What should we wear?
I send every client a detailed what-to-wear guide after booking. The short version: coordinate without matching, stick to soft neutrals and earthy tones, and dress comfortably.
Do you travel to Temecula?
Yes — I serve Temecula. A travel fee applies for locations more than 30 miles from Rancho Cucamonga.
