A PHOTOGRAPHIC JOURNEY
THROUGH MY EYES

Family portrait, Oahu Hawaii

SUNRISE FAMILY PORTRAIT IN PARADISE…08.14.2022

September 16, 2022

I had the pleasure to photograph my friend, @tattoosbykimo & his family visiting from the mainland. He is an amazing tattoo artist who I met, @hawaiitattooexpo a few years ago & we’ve become friends. He also has become interested in photography so whenever he’s in town we go out to shoot my favorite time of the day, sunrise.

I originally had planned to do the photoshoot solo but due to the winds that morning I asked my friend Tien if he was able to assist with my lights! The soft quality of light that comes out of this big 51” defused umbrellas are simply freakin’ amazing! The only problem is, when it’s too windy they become a giant sail that’s impossible to hold in position when the winds hit it. Lol! I really would like to use this light modifier more often in my portrait work but with the Hawaii trade winds, it is very hard, especially if I’m shooting solo.

For inquiries & pricing about setting up a photo shoot, contact me.

A work in progress...Learn, grow...repeat!
