When it all comes down to it... when you're old and reminiscing on the "good ole days" with your equally wrinkled (but still smoking hot) babe by your side, pictures are the only thing you'll have to look back on and share for generations to come. I can think of no better gift than captured moments in time and this is what has really sparked my love for what I do. If you are looking for artistry and timelessness, look no further.

Hawaii Family Session || Big Island, HI

Big Island Family Photographer

Lately I’ve been much more fascinated by the intimate and mundane. Posing perfectly once a year with stiff smiles has never been my jam; that false sense of perfection sort of makes me cringe and I feel like completely misses all the gold moments of what its like being a family. I want to capture the essence and reality of say, being parents of a toddler, playing in a playhouse, going for a walk, cooking with your kids, laying them down for a nap and then watching them wake up with sleepy and loving eyes. I strongly believe that in the imperfect we’ll find perfect.

Gage and I spent the afternoon with Jessy and her family on the Big Island of Hawaii. It was simple and real and we just observed as the kids did their thing.

Take a peek into our intimate day at home with the Dechape family on The Big Island of Hawaii:
