Family Portraits on Kauaʻi

So I had this crazy idea to island hop and capture a few family portraits on Kauaʻi. One of my good friends lives on Kauaʻi and I was told that a few families she knew would really love the opportunity to have some professional photos taken.

Shattuck Family Portrait in the Koʻolau Mountains

I'm not familiar with many places in Hawaiʻi yet alone the country where you can walk through a beautiful tropical garden alongside a pristine lake, turn around and take in breath-taking views of staggering cliffs and mountainsides.

Jacqueline and Timothy decided to host their wedding ceremony at their home church and it was a beautiful sight to see all of their friends and family joining in the celebration.

Hong and Warnock Family Photos on Vacation in Waikiki

We decided to get some family photos at the beautiful Kapiʻolani Park in Waikīkī. The gorgeous trees and Dillingham Fountain made for a fun and playful location for the little ones.

Cheng Maternity Portraits on Vacation in Hawaii

I had the opportunity to meet up with this beautiful couple while they were on their baby moon vacation here in Hawaiʻi. We definitely wanted to take advantage of their trip to Hawaiʻi and capture some great photos of the two of them, especially her growing baby bump. The evening was gorgeous and created a beautiful backdrop for amazing photos of this couple.
