Lahaina Maui family photography is made easy for our clients staying in West Maui. Whether sunrise with soft pastel skies or sunset with vibrant clouds, many areas of Maui offer a spectacular beach location for your family’s portraits. Lahaina is one of them!
If you’re taking part in a sunrise family photoshoot in Lahaina, we recommend stopping by Kihei Caffe in Lahaina. They also have a space in Kihei if you’re staying in south Maui!
Let’s dive in to some highlights from this family’s fun Lahaina Maui family photography session. Their shoot is the very reason we began photographing Land + Sea Sessions on Maui almost a decade ago. The sunrises we’ve photographed in that time never cease to amaze. A splash in the water during your Lahaina family photography session, of course, is often on the cards (that’s the foundation of our brand!)
3 reasons we love this Lahaina Maui family photography session
1. The effortlessly beautiful wardrobe for their Lahaina Maui family photos
Mom chose an excellent color palette for herself and her family. The soft colors blend well with sunrise, and their little one had time for an outfit change! We always recommend bringing a change of clothes for everyone in your group. This will allow you to switch things up. Coming with a change also gives an alternate option if you get sandy or wet prematurely!
2. The fun family photography connection
Connection is everything for your family’s portrait session! Your photographer will give plenty of direction to put everyone at ease. Allowing yourselves the freedom to let that love show, however, is what will ultimately produce the most authentic imagery. This is the foundation for an epic Lahaina family photography sesh!
3. The perfect pastels
We photographed our first sunrise session at this very beach several years ago. It’s a hit for a few reasons. For one, the water is shallow and protected. This leaves plenty of opportunity for water portraits if conditions are safe. The ocean paired with our favorite pastels is a win-win for any Lahaina family photography session!
