Honolulu baby photographer | Good morning Sherwood Beach!

A growing family

It can be hard when you add a second child to the mix. Daily life becomes more hectic and photos of all that baby cuteness can fall by the wayside. Our goal was to change that with a mellow family photo session. As a Honolulu baby photographer, the plan was to focus on baby Benjamin with a photo or two of the whole family. However, I just couldn’t help myself. They are such a warm, close-knit family and I was drawn to that connection. And their little puppy? Well, he kept pausing in front of my lens; almost as if to proudly pose in his bright red sweater.

The beauty (and pain!) of a sunrise photoshoot

Not too many local families are on board with sunrise sessions. The can start at a painful 5:45am in the summer months and even though I’m a Honolulu baby photographer, I’m not a morning person. However, when you have a baby in the house, you’re often forced to be early risers. This family was no stranger to sunrise and they looked well rested and ready to explore as we set off into the golden fog of morning. Sunrise at Waimanalo Beach Park is a little bit magical. Beach stretches out before you for miles punctuated by the abrupt rise of the Koolau mountains. You share that vast expanse of sand with some cranky crabs scuttling along the shore, frigatebirds gliding overhead, and the occasional dog walker. That’s pretty impressive for an island with over a million people populating its shores. We breathed in the salt air and enjoyed every bit of our private beach that morning.
