In Love in Hawaii

Portraits of a couple kissing in the waves in Hawaii

Ten years ago, I photographed Kristina and James’s wedding at the amazing Youngberg Hill Vineyard, outside of McMinnville, Oregon.  But a few months prior to that, I photographed their engagement portraits at Baker Beach, in San Francisco.  We had the Golden Gate Bridge in the background and everything; it was wonderful.  (See their engagement portraits here.)

This summer, I received an email from Kristina saying that they were heading to Hawaii to celebrate their 10th anniversary.  She wanted to know if I wanted to create some more portraits with them, again on a beach, in Hawaii.  Of course, I was in!

So we made plans, and headed to Hawaii.  On the island of Oahu, we spent an incredible afternoon together (starting with local shave ice…) photographing on a deserted beach on the North Shore, right next to a polo club (thus the horse in some of the photos).  It was truly one of the more awesome portrait sessions I’ve ever done.
