Experience an Unforgettable Photoshoot in Maui with a Professional Photographer
Aloha and welcome! My name is Frank. Husband, Father, Adventurer & Photographer in Maui. I love Maui and its beauty, and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to capture your Maui memories; creating real, authentic moments rather than posed, forced photos. I love telling stories through my photoshoots in Maui. My approach combines both flash and natural light into beautiful, organic moments.
During your Maui photoshoot, we’ll do a little bit of everything. Unlike stuffy studio portraits where you’re pulling your hair out trying to get your kids to sit still or smile on cue, my portraits are organic and natural – we’ll get you interacting and having a blast! In my opinion, that’s the best way to have a photoshoot! Learn more about each Maui photo package below.

Location
Maui offers some of the best scenery around. If you’re looking for beaches or beautiful jungle areas, Maui has them! Kapalua Bay and Baby Beach Lahaina are some of my favorite spots. Think of places that speak to your personalities best, and are accessible to everyone involved.
What to Bring
Bring smiles and any props you may want to use during your photo session.
Timing
Evening light is the golden hour when photos of people are at their best. I try to schedule all sessions either early in the morning or an hour before sunset (taking into account your kids’ nap and meal times).
Preparation
To avoid last-minute stress, make sure to pick out all family outfits and props well in advance. If your outfits are new, make sure your kids have a chance to wear them a couple of times before the day so they’ll be comfortable during the shoot.
It’s All in the Details
Your clothing selection and choice of location will make the biggest difference in the final look and feel of your photos! Feel free to message me with photos / ideas / questions about what will look best for photos.

Don’t Match, Coordinate
Pick a color combination for your family to work within. We don’t want everyone to match perfectly, but we also don’t want everyone wearing different colors and patterns that clash.
Don’t Be Too Seasonal
While the idea of outfits for the season may be appealing, our aim is to produce photos that you can use / display in your home year-round. Unless you live in the North Pole, Christmas only works once a year.
Avoid Clashing Patterns
Go for earth tones, textures, and solid colors. These are the most classic and timeless and will guarantee your outfits are still in style a year from now (rather than a trend). Consider layering clothing for more visual interest and movement.
Fitted = Best
While flowy articles of clothing can be fun and create movement, in general, opt for fitted clothing over baggy jeans and loose fitting shirts.
Comfort Over Everything!
We want your session to be fun and enjoyable for everyone involved. If your kids’ clothing is uncomfortable for them to wear, it won’t be nearly as fun, and their discomfort may show in the photos. If you’re planning on wearing new outfits, I’d suggest ‘breaking them in’ a few days in advance to get used to the feeling of wearing those clothes.
