Congrats to Matahari and Todd! I caught these two just before their new little boy, Jahe, popped into the world. We had a great time and shot at one of my favorite north shore beaches. Here's a few shots from sunset maternity portrait session.

Mara & Kate are the ultimate YOGATRONS.
I had the pleasure of shooting with them at the Sullivan Estate in Sunset Hills on the North Shore. They are beautiful and create the poses so effortlessly. Check out their upcoming Yoga Monkey Workshop - a playful approach to partner yoga.

Here's my favorite images from Toby & Paula's engagement session! They're such a SUPREMELY fun couple. I laugh more than anything else when I'm around them. I couldn't help posting a million of their pics because they are THAT awesome.

So,
This blog is a little late in coming, but I'm super super stoked on putting it up. I recently had the {marvelous} pleasure of shooting Allison Izu's Fall 2009 line. Allison creates chic and stylish denim for petite women. So if you're one of the many women in Hawaii (and the WORLD) that isn't over 5'9 - you've gotta check out her clothes! They're the perfect demin - stunning day or night. Here's some pics from the shoot! Don't forget to check out Allisons website: http://www.allisonizu.com
Oh, I can't forget to mention the stylin' hair and make up skills! Christine Gardner of FLAUNT MAKEOVERS is one talented woman!








Here's a pic of all the girls with Allison after the shoot. 3 {super fun and sexy} models plus 2 {super fun and productive} interns and the lovely Allison right in the middle! Thanks for a fun shoot girls!

Teaser | Engagement

I had a really fun engagement shoot with Toby and Paula last week. They're getting married in August and I can't wait for their wedding at the Ke Iki Bungalows on the North Shore. Both of them are pretty good friends of mine, so shooting with them was not only a breeze - but super fun (Hint: there were Newcastle beers involved)
