So we meet again I was giddy before this session because I just love this family. They had an in-home lifestyle session for their family last year which ended with a big finale at Waimanalo beach. At the time, I thought baby Arianna couldn’t get any cuter, but I was so very wrong. She’s developed […]

Over time, more and more of my clients have not been local residents, but rather families visiting Oahu on vacation. I have to say, that made me a little sad because I become attached to these families. I learn about them and become fully invested in order to best capture who they are. And just […]

I was a little unsure whether I would blog this particular session because this family is special. Special in the sense that they are absolutely wonderful, fabulous people yes, but also they’re doing something you can’t do. See, they’re biologists. Ornithologists specifically. And for the past decade or so, they have been researching and working […]

A still morning in Koolina I met this sweet family of three at Paradise Cove for a lovely sunrise photo session. The best thing about sunrise sessions (other than gorgeous, dreamy light of course) is that you have the beach all to yourself. It’s peaceful and clean and the whole day stretches out before you […]
Baby photography Kailua It’s great to be a baby in Hawaii. No need for pesky shoes, or even clothes. Long mornings at the beach, naps in the warm sun, and all the sand you can eat (while your parents aren’t looking). It’s a pretty good life. Marigny just became a Hawaii baby. Her family moved […]

Military moms I was immediately bedazzled by tiny Chloe. We met for a consultation beforehand to talk about great photo locations, and the best time of day, and what to wear, and all that fun stuff. Only I hard time focusing with this wide-eyed, curious, toddler checking me out. I just wanted to sit on […]

When Tracy contacted me, pure enthusiasm and glee exuded from her email. Over email. Now that’s a feat. They weren’t just excited about their prospective photography session, but about their vacation, and really you get that sense that they are just excited about life in general. And no surprise, so is their little guy. He […]

Here for the right reasons Esther and her family were visiting Oahu for a wedding and they decided to schedule a family photo session for themselves. They have the most adorable little baby boy and honestly, he needed to be celebrated in photos. He’s just that cute. Throw in a bow tie and he’s downright […]
Leaving Hawaii Oahu is such a transient place. Not everyone falls in love with the sunshine, but for those who do it can be heartbreaking to leave. I feel for those families and they always end up being some of my favorite photo sessions. I love to send them off with a beautiful story of […]

Bellows for Oahu Beach Photography Bellows Beach is one of my favorite spots on the island. The area by the guard shack is my absolute favorite at low tide because you have a shallow expanse of water that is perfect for babies and toddlers to splash in. Throw in a sunrise and a layer of […]

First Birthday Celebration Is there anything better than a first birthday celebration? I highly recommend a big blowout affair when your baby turns one. Not for the baby so much as for the parents. One-year-olds are terribly easy to please after all and they are renowned for poor memory retention. No, you need to celebrate […]
