February…the month of love…I can’t think of a better time to post my most recent engagement session. Here’s to new love!
I’ve known Adi for years and I was so excited to meet the man who captured her heart. Adi is a girl full of smiles. And her smiles come with greater rapidity when Jesse is around. Our day at North Beach was beautiful. The setting really complimented this gorgeous couple.
See below for a slideshow starring Adi and Jesse:

Jesse and Adi were so sweet and playful together…and busted up laughing when they got out the sand toys to play with.
I love when you can tell a couple is so completely in love.
This is one of the last photos we took and I think it’s my favorite! I love, love, love sweet moments like this.

Her feet were running toward the ocean before they even hit the ground. Her delighted expression said, “This is where I want to be!” FUN just isn’t a big enough word to describe the joy, the freedom, the thrill of running through the sand…away from mom.
Splashing in the ocean…to get her new dress all wet.
Giving dad big hugs.
A two year old’s imagination is limitless when fueled with elements at the beach.

She waves her hands and smiles big when she sees mom looking her way. The story is told in how her eyes light up from the excitement of the game…peek-a-boo! I see you! A giggle, a toothless smile, a squeal of delight. Her eyes are alight with pure fascination. Right now, at this moment, it is the most fantastic game in the world.

Not even winter could bring down the sunny disposition of the Morse family. Running, smiles, laughter…those are the things that made this photo session unforgettable! I love when a family makes a point to just have fun together. Having your picture taken should be a seriously fun experience! And so it was.
A quick slideshow of our day together:
The wind was blowing strong.
The sand pelted our legs.
Dark clouds loomed overhead.
And the adventure began!
The kids found cool things in the sand, jumped in the water, flew with the wind and even got dad to spin them around and throw them up high. After our first stop, we headed over to the other side of the bay to North Beach. There we slid down big slabs of cement, climbed rocks, explored tide pools and caves. As the sun started to set, Dad led the kids on a hike up the mountain where the whole family enjoyed a gorgeous pink sky overlooking the ocean. It really was a perfect end to a great afternoon.
So whimsical and carefree! I love when a child gets excited to show off.
Kailua Beach: Just The Girls

It was such a pleasure hanging out with the Dements! Not only are they super fun, these girls are as gorgeous inside as they are on the outside. I’ve been able to see them grow up over the past several years and they just become more amazing and beautiful every day.
Click below to watch a slideshow:
With a sister home from college for the holidays, the three girls are back together again. I could tell how happy they were to be together in the way they playfully teased each other. Sisters can share a closeness that defies time. Although the future is daring each of them to go their separate ways, relationships are renewed in the simple act of coming home.
I love this shot! The genuine laughter speaks volumes about the feeling of the moment.
