Queen of the Beach - Okinawa Portrait Photographer

It was another crazy Okinawa weather morning. Overcast. A little chilly. Windy. Which made it more chilly.  Looking like it was going to drizzle. Overcast. Yeah, I said that twice because it was pretty gloomy but I knew the sea would still look great! And of course, I had a beach boudoir scheduled. Should I reschedule or shouldn't I, that was the question and I called Trilisa early in the am and we decided we were going to go ahead anyway! And I am glad we did!
Trilisa was a brilliant on the shoot. It was def. chilly but we soon warmed up as we ran away from waves and crazy high tide surf...! It was so high that morning that it finally came up past this spot where Trilisa was lying!
It was a very chilled shoot, apart from the crazy waves and we had the whole area to ourselves!!!
Trilisa is from Florida, so this is where she is happy...by the sea!
Haven't taken any frame shots for a while!
Chillaxin'
in BW...love the sand on the shoulder!
Beautiful lady, look at those eyes...as soon as we met, I already saw images in my head so I knew we would get some cool shots!
Classic BW
One of my favs...
Trilisa. Thank you again for trusting in my crazy vision for that am!
I am glad you love the photos! You rocked the shot! You would never know how crazy the weather was by these! x

Family of six | Okinawa Family Photographer

Sometimes, the dullest weather can produce the coolest colours on the beach. That's why I will still shoot with overcast skies. The clouds act like a giant diffuser in the sky! Sweet!
It was a howling success!
 Meet Mirno...
 and Teddie...
 Sweet daughter S. Love her wind twirling hair!
 and son D (who was over from college!)
It was a very dull day. In fact, on the way to the shoot, it was actually raining...
I kept checking the satellite and there was a break in the rain so we went ahead with the shoot and it actually all worked out. The rain literally stopped for the shoot and restarted soon after!
Thank you Gibson Family. I am glad we got to shoot, I know time was limited to have everyone together!

Annie and Al - Okinawa Maternity Photographer

After Annie's fitness/early maternity session, it was time for the actual couple maternity session!
And these two rocked it!
Look at all the colours! LOVE!
Love the peacefulness of this!
Mum and Dad on the beach!
 A sweet BW...
LOVE!
Chillin'
This was such a fun session!
I couldn't have asked for a better shoot!
 And a sweet sunset!
Next, for another mini shoot diversion a week or so later, we went to find some cherry blossoms...
Blooming beautiful, just like the Sakura!
Thank you Annie and Al! Congratulations on the birth of your daughter! More coming soon!

Eight is the magic number | Okinawa Family Photographer

Here is the 2nd big family in a week that I shot right after Christmas (Yep, I'm blog-olistically behind!)
It all turned out well and good! Of course, I got all the family members separately. It was like a few family sessions rolled into one! I *almost* needed a notebook to write all the sequences down!
How cute is he?
and his cousin, M!
And, yes, we did have some laughs, of course!
Sweet cousins!
Super sweet!
Moved up the beach to capture the family in a different light...
The proud Grandparents!
Off we toddled to look at some shells
and really observe them!
Pick some flowers
Before we called it a night with an Okinawa family of 8 sunset!
Thank you, as always, Chuck for assisting me and keeping me from tripping up and leaving lens caps and all that silly stuff! Thank you, Michelle, for sending your friend my way! Much LOVE! Thank you Diana, Tim and Family for trusting me to capture your family whilst they were all together in Okinawa!
