Why choose family photography in San Martín de los Andes?
Families come to San Martín de los Andes for the beaches of Lago Lácar in summer and the snow of Cerro Chapelco in July. A family session works best close to where the children already want to be: on the sand by the costanera, at a lake beach outside town, or on a short forest walk. Thirty minutes is plenty for small children, and the best light is early, before the beach fills.
