Carefree Family Fun – The Yazbeck’s Maui Family Portrait
When the Yazbeck family landed in Maui for their very first Hawaiian adventure, they knew they wanted to do more than just dip their toes in the ocean and sip from coconuts (although, let’s be real, they probably did that too). They wanted to bottle up this joy, the sunshine, the laughter, the sweet chaos of having two energetic little ones, and they knew just the way to do it: with a Maui family portrait session.
We started their session at the beach where the light was soft and flattering, and the colors popped like a postcard come to life. Their little ones, ages four and two, brought boundless energy, unstoppable curiosity, and that unmistakable sparkle only kids on vacation have. It was lovely to see three generations together all in one beautiful place…
Moments You Can’t Get Back
As the sun began its golden descent, the vibe softened into something dreamlike. The ocean shimmered, the light glowed, and their Maui family portrait took on a magical, almost ethereal quality. It was the kind of evening where you pause and think: This. This is the memory with our girls that we want to hold onto forever.
Because here’s the truth: you’ll never regret taking the family photos, only the ones you didn’t take. Especially when you’re on holiday, surrounded by people you love, feeling sun-kissed, carefree in the most beautiful setting. That joy? It shows in the photos. Kids grow SO fast, and every moment is so precious. And that’s exactly why we do what we do!
The candid moments were endless: laughing mid-spin, holding hands while dancing freely in a circle. It was real in the best way, and it was exactly the kind of memory you want to keep forever.
The family chose to dress in classic beachy white, which made everything look effortlessly cohesive. The color palette blended perfectly with the sand, sea, and sky, timeless, elegant, and full of aloha spirit.
To the Yazbecks, thank you for letting us freeze this moment in paradise. The giggles, the cuddles, all the feels…these are the memories that matter. Now you have so many beautiful frame-worthy options of your first family vacation in Hawaii! (Good luck choosing!)
It was an honor to capture your wonderful family! We hope you have the best time!
