Stunning South Side Family Session

I find it so incredibly touching when I get the opportunity to capture the generations in a family session. This beautiful family has been in my Maui life for quite some time now. They all have such amazing gifts and the best smiles. Angela and I met at the Haleakala Waldorf preschool yard when our daughters decided to be best friends. I think she & I were very relieved that we liked each other as well. Her husbands parents are also here on island and have helped raise their daughter. Their bond is undeniable and they were such a joy to work with. The golden light came out in full force and we bathed in it until the sun went down.

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to photograph this moment in time. Congratulations to Marc & Angela for their 10 year anniversary together and to Leila & Dieter for being together for about 60 years ( i believe). How inspiring!!! Much Aloha to You All!

Vow Renewal Never Looked So Good....

When I saw Kate & Rob step out of their Jeep, I would have never guessed they were renewing their vows after 20 years! They were so youthful and sweet to each other. They had two teenagers who were also very fun-loving and kind. We headed to my favorite secret spot on the South Side and did a bunch of family portraits first. Kate said it had been over 10 years since they had family photos so I took full advantage of the soft light and gorgeous backdrop we had that day. We all gathered in closely as Kate & Rob renewed their vows. It was full of laughter and love. I hope I can look that great after 20 years of marriage…. seriously. Congratulations to 20 years and here’s to 20 more!
