North Shore Photography Hawaii has rockier beaches than the southern and windward beaches. Maybe its those famous winter currents that create pipeline waves washing away all the sand!
Whatever it is, its good to keep in mind that not only is the North Shore out of the way, its not easy for small children to walk in. The sand is soft, but tread very far into the water and they’ll be tripping.
There’s nothing easy about family photos
There’s a lot of decision making that can be overwhelming:
- what to wear
- where to go
- what sizes to print
I want to make it as easy as possible for you and that starts well before the session with Wardrobe. . Every client gets access to Style & Select. If Pinterest and Stitch Fix had a baby this would be it. Everything is vetting for colors, patterns & textures that look good in camera by photographers for family photography.
I’ll be your second opinion & sounding board. Send me screenshots of what you’ve got, your ideas and I’ll give you all the direction you need!
At the gallery reveal, everyone is welcome! Its virtual so the only limited is opinions – ha! But I’m sure that will be overflowing too!
In the end, you’ll have more than digital files lost on a hard drive. You’ll have heirloom-quality photographs on your walls or in your hands. That’s my full service approach.
The best part: Everyone in the clan will have access to the matching digital files.
Now for something more serious…
I hate to go morbid on you, but my own experience says I have to share. You may never get the chance to do photos with these people again. There will come a time when you will wish you had more photos. Usually by then its too late.
