Before you know it your baby will be here and everyone (seriously, everyone) will tell you, “it goes by so fast!”
Want to know the truth? They’re right.
And it might be a while before you make it back to Hawaii... so why not capture babymoon photos to treasure while you’re in the most beautiful place on earth.
I really believe your maternity photos are a treasure. Just imagine your baby growing up. You’ve made it through the sleepless nights. The long days and the short years.
And then someday they look back at these photos and see it for themselves:
Wow. That’s my mama.
And she loved me before she knew me.
Isn’t it crazy how 9 months seems like such a long time but suddenly it’s flying by?
No two sessions – just like no two couples – are ever alike. We approach every maternity session excited to get to know you and take care of you every step of the way! The result? Gorgeous, real images that celebrate your growing family.
Because your Hawaii Babymoon is more than a trip - it’s an adventure. It’s let-your-hair-down, fill-your-cup, soul medicine.
Get keys to our secret vault of exclusive client guides! We not only answer all your questions before you even think of them (what to wear, location details and e-x-a-c-t-l-y what to expect during our session), we also share our curated island visitor guide of our favorite beaches, restaurants, and activities.
Then we’ll do the fine print stuff like signing your contract (and that includes our Covid cancellation policy) and arranging payment which we need to confirm your booking.
Don't put this off! I recommend reaching out 2-3 months in advance (4-5 months for holiday and summer months). Contact me with your travel dates and I’ll get right back to you with availability – for both myself and our team.

05. WHAT IF WE HAVE TO CANCEL OUR TRIP DUE TO COVID?
04. I SAW THESE CUTE PICTURES ON PINTEREST. CAN WE DO THOSE?
03. DO I GET TO SEE ALL OF THE IMAGES FROM MY SESSION? WHO SELECTS THE FINAL IMAGES INCLUDED IN MY PACKAGE?
02. WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS? CAN WE RESCHEDULE?
01. WHERE DO SESSIONS TAKE PLACE?
We specialize in beach portrait sessions. On the Big Island, sessions take place along the Waikoloa and Kohala beach shorelines. On Maui, sessions take place in Kihei, Wailea or Lahaina. We have locations available all around Oahu, including near Waikiki. (Please note: commercial photography is no longer allowed at Disney Aulani Resort but we have nearby locations available). All locations are subject to permit availability as a commercial permit is required for all commercial beach activity in Hawaii.
After you book a session, you'll get a link to our exclusive and very robust location guide. These locations have been vetted based on available light, busyness, and how well they work for families, couples, or maternity clients. We have specific spots we recommend for sunrise but do not recommend for sunset, and vice versa. Our team can also make recommendations based on where you’ll be staying on the island.
01. WHERE DO SESSIONS TAKE PLACE?
In the unlikely event that the weather does not cooperate, we'll work to find a time to reschedule your session during your trip. The best-case scenario is finding a different location (hopefully a nearby beach!) where it is not raining, but we will make those plans on the day of your session if necessary.
We will keep a backup rain date and time for you. This might be a different time of day than you originally booked, or it may be with a different photographer from our team if that is all we have available. If all attempts have been made to reschedule and it still rains, you'll receive a 30% refund. If you refuse any date and time offered to attempt reschedule during your trip, no refund will be given.
02. WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS? CAN WE RESCHEDULE?
Yes, you will get to see all of your final session images and make your own image selections from your delivered gallery. This doesn’t mean you will get to see every photo that was taken at your session. Our culling process involves selecting the absolute best shots from your session time, so we discard images that are out of focus, have closed eyes, or simply are not the best of the best. The final result, approximately 1-2 images per minute of session time, is the gallery that will be delivered to you.
10-14 days after your session, you'll receive your final gallery of images. From there you choose the final images you'd like to have the high-resolution digital files of and be able to download those directly to your computer. You’ll also have the option to purchase additional individual digital files or upgrade to purchase your entire collection of session images.
03. DO I GET TO SEE ALL OF THE IMAGES FROM MY SESSION? WHO SELECTS THE FINAL IMAGES INCLUDED IN MY PACKAGE?
Here's a secret: those Pinterest dream images you’re envying… those clients or photographers didn’t plan them exactly that way. The most magical images happen organically when everyone is relaxed and in the moment. We can't plan for spontaneous moments. If you feel strongly about some ideas, tell your photographer beforehand. But you may find that when you see these in your final gallery they will feel forced and out of place with the rest of your images.
The photos you'll cherish the most will be the ones where you almost forget the camera is there and are genuinely having a great time. And then who knows! Someone may be pinning one of your magical pictures in the future!
04. I SAW THESE CUTE PICTURES ON PINTEREST. CAN WE DO THOSE?
A non-refundable retainer of 30% is required to hold your session date and confirm your booking. We cannot hold any dates as booked without payment and the signed session agreement. The remaining amount is due one week prior to your session.
Though we sincerely hope your Hawaii vacation isn’t affected by Covid, we understand this is a reality of planning travel nowadays. Should you have to cancel or reschedule your session, the 30% retainer is non-refundable but is transferable to another date within 12 months of your original session date. Please read through our COVID policies here.
