They left their ranch in Oklahoma to visit Oahu for the week and I had the privilege to capture some photos for them while they are here with their 90-year-old…

But, that’s what gets you bright, perfect aqua-colored Oahu water. I think everyone was soaked and sun-kissed by the end of this session, but…

Nature’s light show at Kualoa last night was breathtaking! The Buergers picked the perfect session day for the end of their…

They’d already been on island for a few days when we met up for this session last night so everyone was perfectly tanned (and adjusted to the new time zone!). We had…

The Lafferty family met me on Bellows AFB last night for a fun, laid-back family session on one of my favorite beaches! The waves were definitely bigger than I’m used to due to the South swell coming through right now. One of my cameras even…

When I say this entire family has the most beautiful smiles, I mean it. The smile genes in this family are strong and a photographer’s dream! Check out how…

It’s such a small world — the lovely Braddells are visiting Oahu from DC just a few miles from where I lived just 18 months ago. We met at Kualoa Regional Park bright and early today for some sunrise photos. I love…
