That light !


One of the greatest joys of being a photographer in Oahu is capturing those spontaneous, authentic moments that reveal the true connection between couples. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing a truly magical session at Makua Beach on the west side of the island. With its incredible sunsets and serene beauty, Makua Beach is the ideal setting for capturing love in its purest form.


A Perfect Evening at Makua Beach


This session took place during the golden hour, right as the sun was setting over the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow over everything. Makua Beach, with its pristine sands and stunning views, was the perfect backdrop for this special evening. The couple I was photographing were incredibly playful and their chemistry was undeniable, making my job an absolute joy.



Capturing Spontaneous and Authentic Moments



One of my favorite parts of being a photographer is capturing genuine moments. As the couple laughed, played, and enjoyed each other’s company, I found myself lost in the beauty of their interaction. The sunset provided the most exquisite lighting, highlighting their joy and the love they shared. Every shot seemed to capture a different facet of their relationship, from tender, quiet moments to bursts of laughter and playful teasing.

The Magic of Love in Oahu


This session reminded me why I love what I do. There’s something incredibly special about freezing these fleeting moments in time, creating memories that couples will cherish forever. The combination of Makua Beach’s breathtaking beauty and the couple’s playful spirit made this session one of my all-time favorites.


As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting the final rays of light over the ocean, I knew we had captured something truly special. The love, laughter, and pure joy of this couple were beautifully preserved in each photograph, a testament to the magic of Makua Beach and the power of authentic love.
