This wedding season is in full bloom here on Hawaii. I am really enjoying being back in my creative saddle. This is my first season with a baby and it is proving to be a challenge. Not only am I doing my regular checklists of gear, contracts, and timelines, but I am also doing a personal checklist. Before going to a wedding I have to prep for weeks, booking rental cars and flights, pumping milk for the baby, and making sure my kids are all taken care of. Life is crazy but I am loving every moment of it.
Here is a wedding that I was a little nervous about shooting. It was my first 6 hour day away from the baby and I was SO scared he would wilt away and die without me. Luckily, my couple, Amanda and Joe were AWESOME and my hubby did great with the baby. All my preparations paid off and everyone had a stellar day.
Amanda got her hair did at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel’s spa Abhasa. It had such a relaxing zen feeling and was the perfect way to start the day.
After some final touches at the Hilton Prince Kuhio, we were off to the beach in Waimanalo on Oahu’s South east side. The weather was perfect with a constant breeze.
I just love Amanda’s full sleeve!
Congrats to you, Joe and Amanda! I had a great time just enjoying the first hours as man and wife with you.
xoxo, Marina
I forgot my goggles and was shooting blind. I kinda like the way this one turned out.
Sarah is expecting her baby girl any day now. Here’s to a quick labor!
