This Poipu sunset family session was so much fun! I’d done a session with this rad family the year before, which was also a blast. People have called me sensitive my whole life. And it’s true. Everything seems magnified and…
Hanalei Bay sunset session
Oh how I love a Hanalei Bay sunset session. The light, the mountains, waterfalls most of the time. It’s a magical place. I used to shoot at an area up that was damaged in a crazy flood almost a year…
Poipu family photo session at sunrise
I don’t love blogging, but here’s a gorgeous Poipu family photo session at sunrise. I think most of us photographers don’t like to blog, which is why so many of us slack off at posting. For me, it’s because of…
The H Ohana, a Kauai beach photo session
I am beyond thankful for my repeat clients. There’s nothing like seeing a family come back to Kauai and have the privilege of helping to document their family and their children growing up, over and over. I’ve seen the H…
Project 10-February 2017
I’m having a lot of fun playing with light lately and even a new camera for this month’s Project 10. I bought a Rolleiflex, which is the camera Vivian Maier used, made in the 1950’s. I’ve been pretty obsessed with it…

B Family
These guys came to Kauai from the Bay area. It was supposed to be raining that morning but we chanced it and got really, really lucky. It rained pretty much everywhere else that day. We met at sunrise and pretty…
Project 10 | November 2016
For November’s Project 10 I shot film at a little beach in Poipu with my two younger girls. I tried a newish film stock which worked amazing for mid-day sun. Fun, vibrant colors. I’m totally going to have to use…
W Family
This darling family were visiting Kauai from California. It was their first family session as a family of three so I wanted it be extra awesome. And it was. It was amazing. I told little mister that he was perfect…
Project 10-July 2016
I’m excited July’s Project 10. Since project 10 is about capturing personal images, and I love the way film renders color and texture I’m shooting it all the time now, especially for this project. Kauai summer means popsicles, sunshine, and…
The R Family-Poipu
This family is the sweetest. There is something so magical about two-year olds. They can be terrors, of course, but the wonder, joy, and excitement they have is contagious. H wanted to run around and play in the ocean, which…
