After years of debating, I got myself the full underwater housing kit for my Canon photography gear! Shoutout Aquatech, I’m loving my Elite II housing. I’ve always ended my sessions in the water (up to my waist with a soggy booty trying not to get my camera wet, ha!), but now I’m able to get […]

Loved this anniversary session with these two incredible humans! LGBQT+ folks — I gotchu covered on a beautiful photo session celebrating your love while you visit the island! Hawaii was one of the first six states to legalize gay marriage back in 1993, and I’m happy to have documented a myriad of celebrations like weddings, […]

Hana Hawai’i Vow Renewal Logan and Casey married 5 years ago, and decided to do a Maui vow renewal in beautiful Hana, Hawaii. They stayed in the oceanfront bungalows at Travaasa (one of my absolute favorite places to stay for a romantic anniversary and vacation), and booked in a sunset photo shoot. Where are the […]

I havenʻt seen these two babes in many years! I know Steph from Maui, and remember when she fell in love with Dominique. Dominique is in the Air Force, and was stationed across the country for awhile, so Steph moved out. after a few years (and getting married!) they are settled back  into california life. […]

Anna and Walt were engaged and asked me to come to their farm in haiku for their photo session. I was blown away by the expansive views, variety of fruits and vegetables, and space that they’re co-creating. plus they have the sweetest vibe together, and also awesome pups. OH YA and it started raining and […]

while attending photo native, a photo conference in palm springs, I was able to take a workshop with the talented haley nord. we went to twentypalms, a small town outside of joshua tree — and did a shoot with sierra and cam, a newly engaged couple and friends of haley’s. even though this elopement was […]

vow renewals are special. whether it’s just two people in an intimate ceremony, or a larger group coming together to celebrate — it’s all about the love. christine and ryan wanted to get off the beaten path and do their vow renewal at a maui waterfall, so of course I contacted twin falls fruit stand […]

hailey was my first friend at university in the redwoods of northern california. I adored this born and raised maui girl, and a year later I found myself on a plane to visit her for a month — exploring the island… barefoot and free 18 year olds. I thank hailey for introducing me to this […]

I love sunrise for couples photography on Maui’s northshore. Pā’ia town and the surrounding beaches have gorgeous views and mellow vibes for beach photos that celebrate your love and connection. Beatrice and Lucas decided on their favorite spot for surfing, Ho’okipa Beach. we started at 7am for no wind and empty beaches, and had the […]

hopped on a plane to Kauai to meet up with my childhood friend McKenzie and her fiancee Robert for their engagement session and adventuring! we cruised around to Hanalei, Kilauea Fish Market for lunch (the veggie burrito is the jam), enjoyed endless taro lo’i, the farm in Poipu, Koloa Rum (Robert’s family business) and ended […]
