NITTAS & OMORIS

I’ve known these families for several years now, Tisha and I went to high school together and we all attended the same church, a great church with a lot of great people.  It was a really HOT day, but we made it through and even had some fun!  Thanks you guys!

I once referred to Shane & Suzy and family as our “parallel family”, meaning we are similarly aged (okay, I’m a few years older), and our families consist of 3 children, also somewhat similarly aged.  Suzy and I discovered how our eldest, middle and youngest keiki are much alike and share many characteristics.  It was...

TRAN FAM

I met up with the Tran’s on the tail end of their visit to the islands.  We did a quick session at their hotel–didn’t mom do a great job with their outfits?!  They were lots of fun, although the boys weren’t completely interested until we got a little active, such boys :)  Each family session...

FOUR GENS

Izumi asked me if I could photograph her new daughter, herself, her mom and grandma for a four generation photo. I loved the idea as I have a single four generation photo myself of my first daughter, me and my mom along with my grandma, taken in the hospital just a few months before she...
