One year ago, I had the opportunity to take maternity photos with Emily and Don during their vacation here in Hawaiʻi. This year, they planned their trip again but this time with baby Michael along for the ride.

Lucas Family Portrait in Ko Olina
The Lucas family recently relocated to Hawaiʻi for work and have quickly acclimated to the local lifestyle here. And during the recent holiday season, family photos on the beach were a great way to show off their new home to family and friends across the sea.
The Bennett Family had an amazing opportunity for a family vacation in Hawaiʻi as a part of their son’s wish with The Make-A-Wish Foundation. Their trip included activities and adventures that took them around the island, however one of their more important moments came during our family portrait session.
It’s that time of the year. Time for family Christmas photos. With an abundance of beaches and tropical settings for photos, we wanted to get away from the Hawaiian norm and have these photos taken in a more woodland setting. After a quick drive up the mountains, we set up in a forest of Cook Pine Trees for these Christmas photos.
Mathias Family Portrait at Ko ʻOlina
I love the work that I get to do. Being a part of so many beautiful families and capturing the moments they share with their children is such a blessing. Especially when they are friends.
At first they were a bit worried about the prospect of having family photos taken, mainly due to the challenges they have faced in the past with their autistic son. All she asked was for "one good family picture".
Family vacations are moments we always remember. Especially when multiple families come together from across the country to spend time in paradise.
True love is such a beautiful thing to photograph. I find that portrait sessions like these are a breeze because I am merely capturing the couple as they enjoy spending time with each other.
Beattie Family Newborn Portrait with Baby Jason
Baby Jason was born June 8, 2018 and welcomed home by a loving family. Big sister, Gracelynn and big brother, Daniel were ready and waiting to smother their new baby brother with hugs and kisses. There is so much love in this family that it is obvious to see in every photo. Moments like these are so special and I am so blessed to be able to capture these newborn moments forever.
Mukhi Family Vacation Photography at Ala Moana Beach Park
Sayeeda planned her family vacation in Hawaiʻi while her husband was here in Honolulu for work. What better way to remember every moment than through family portraits and family vacation photography.
