Solar Eclipse 2012 captured from my back yard. It never got super full here in Hawaii only about 10% but it was still a super cool site.

Spring has sprung in my horse pasture!

Wishing you all a Very Merry Everything…

Spread Holiday Cheer!

The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family wrapped up in each other – Burton Hillis

Happy Holidays!

It was probably one of the most amazing experiences  to be part of my good friends birth. Brittany was glowing and smiling through out the whole birth. No really, she was!  Her experience at Home Birth Kauai was unforgettable.   I am so grateful for being a part of this birth experience and it was a beautiful, calm and peaceful way to bring a new life into this world.

Much love to the Kurowski Family and their new addition!

Note to self: If I ever get the chance to document another birth I need to remove myself a bit more. I was just so excited to be a part of her birth that I didn’t get as much of the story as I wish I would have. I loved EVERY minute of it and I am so happy to have been there for the birth of their 4th child. ….And I have to agree I think Kinley should have Meadow somewhere in her name as mom birthed & walked around the meadow for quite some time

Happy Birthday Kinely! Welcome to this beautiful world!!!!

It was such a pleasure working with this family! They were all so fun eager to explore the south shore location for their shoot. The kids had a ball exploring the caves, finding crabs, cowry shells, and chasing fish and crabs along the hidden beaches which we explored!  This is one of my favorite locations on Kauai’s south shore, check out some of their images and I am sure you will agree that this is one of the prettiest places for pictures on the sunny south side Aloha!
