When they contacted me just days before arriving for a last minute Maui family vacation trip, I was so excited to meet their new little bundle of joy, so I made the time to sneak them into my schedule.

From Oahu to Maui and a sprinkle of the other islands in between, these two made their first visit to the Hawaiian Islands beyond memorable - and they deserved it!

For starters, I don’t specialize in photographing weddings here on Maui. I prefer to keep things small, intimate, personable, and on the less serious side. But sometimes, I make exceptions…

I’ve had the pleasure of capturing pieces from the Kūlua 2018 collections, and there aren’t nearly enough words to describe the magic that’s intertwined into each piece of fabric Anna designs & molds.

For this Maui Maternity Photo session, the wind was prevalent all over Maui…and I mean eeeeeeevvvvvvverywhere! There are only a few spots on island where you can fully escape the drifts, whips, and squalls, regardless of the wind direction…so I made sure we made the most of our little hideaway as best we could - and boy did we!

Some of my favorite moments from my Maui Sunrise Family Session with this adorable family at one of Maui’s most gorgeous beaches in Makena <3

What do you do when two stylish & super sweet Brooklynites contact you for a Land & Ocean Maternity session on Maui? You make the time…and you make it count ;-)
