Family Photos…A Little Different.

I recently took portraits for this nice family on the Punahou campus.

They had the cutest kids – these two sisters…

…and their cousins, visiting from the mainland.

Suddenly, something strange happened…

…the kids had become zombies!

Watch out, Grandpa!

Uh oh…too late!

We did take the ‘nice’ family portraits too, as well as some of the kids all playing together, but those were part of the bargain I made with the kids before accepting their request for zombie pictures. Kids these days…I love them!:)

Tammy & Noah – Kapalua Beach Wedding

Another intimate beach wedding, this time on Maui! Tammy is the daughter of old family friends – my parents used to babysit her before I was born, so it was super fun to meet her and photograph her wedding! Her and her groom, Noah, were super fun, as reflected by their enthusiasm about us playing with the fisheye this time around, which came in handy when the sky lit up in another epic Maui sunset. Enjoy!

Tracy & Cliff – Lanikai Beach Wedding

I’m dreadfully late in blogging this, but here are a few of my favorites from Tracy and Cliff’s beach wedding in Lanikai. Isn’t their son the most adorable little guy?:)

Half-Marine, Half-Coastie – Newborn Session

Friends Sarah and Joe welcomed their brand new baby girl, Samara, about three weeks ago, and I was so excited to take the photos for her first portrait session! It was a nice afternoon of hanging out around their house while waiting in between feedings for photos.  Joe is a Marine, and Sarah is Coast Guard, so Samara is a dual military branch baby! We had fun with the shoot, from sticking her inside her daddy’s brand new racing tires, to enjoying all her little expressions (and helping her make them!). Check out how adorable this girl is:

Finally, here’s a photo of Sarah and Joe’s first baby, their pup named 9mil. Poor little guy, he’s a little bummed out he’s not the baby of the family anymore, but he still watches over Samara!

Michael & Jenna – June 23rd, 2011

Here is one of the most beautiful weddings I’ve ever had the privilege to photograph. After a year and a half of planning, my good friend Michael and his bride Jenna finally tied the knot at the the gorgeous Olowalu Plantation House on Maui.   The wedding was styled perfectly, and we were treated to the most spectacular sunset, which even included a double rainbow in the mountains!
