A the weeks wind down before we move back home from Maui to the Sunshine Coast of Australia, we find ourselves noticing little differences between days spent here in Hawaii. When a big swell comes through you’ll often find beachgoers with mesh bags collecting shells on the shoreline, but on this particular morning we had […]

It used to be that I thought we had to have pastel everything. Because our editing style is largely soft with pink and blue tones, I imagined the best colour to complement this look would be a bit of the same. It turns out, bold colours are just as beautiful, especially when photographed from the […]

I remember being surprised when my friend said it. “You and Adam fight?!” I’d just vented a recent disagreement I’d had with my love. “You seem so happy!” Well, it was true. But to think our friend imagined my relationship with Adam was nothing but rainbows, butterflies and Saturday nights spent chowing angel hair pasta […]

I’ve always been an early riser – since high school, really, when my two best friends would sleep over and throw pillows at me if I stirred before 9am. Early wake ups have always been my forte, and Adam is no different. Even with two kids 3 and under, he seems to wake with ease […]

I pulled the photograph closer to my eyes to analyze the setting. Towering loblolly pines, a timber deck stained deep mahogany, my mum dressed in a form-fitting cotton dress cradling her tummy outside my childhood home in Georgia. Inhale, exhale – I can almost smell the fresh air. I smile and glance down at the […]

We’ve never been afraid of a little cloud cover, but when rain threatened our original shoot location for Vinhphu + Young’s Land, Sea + Sky trash the dress session, we followed the road until pavement gave way to loose asphalt and lava rock and we found ourselves in the shadow of a gorgeous Haleakalā, shrouded […]

We recently posted a question on Instagram asking what you wanted to know about our post-processing, and we got such a huge response I thought it would be easiest to keep all the answers in one place before they poof out in our stories and are lost on a highlights reel! Accompanying this post are […]

I thank our landlords every night under my breath. They trimmed the trees lining our home when we moved in, giving way to a sweeping view of the West Maui Mountains – it’s out of this world. And when the setting sun lights up the sky at the tail end of the day, I find […]

Brittany + Tim celebrated their anniversary on Maui and took part in a couples portrait session at the beach with us on Earth Day. We can’t think of a more beautiful start to the day than a moon setting ahead of a gorgeous pastel sunrise, and the couple cooled off after their session with a […]

It’s the positive feedback we get that give us our “why” – and this fun couple’s experience was no exception. Check out what Chris + Tom had to say about their sunrise beach portrait session! Thank you Tom and Chris for choosing us to photograph your portraits – view their fun sunrise session below!

This sunset family portrait at the beach has all the elements we dream up – a walk on the beach, a splash in the water… a casual wave from Owen Wilson? Doesn’t hurt I guess to throw a sly celebrity encounter into our beach portrait packages, we like to go a bit extra at Love […]

It’s earth day, hurray! I feel as if every year Mother Earth heaves a sigh of relief on this day. “Ah,” she says, “they finally listened.” But then she scrolls Instagram 24 hours later and reads it’s now National Donut Day. “Hey, what the f*&%?” Does anyone remember that episode of Mad Men – Don […]
