Some milestones deserve to be wrapped in sunlight and sea breeze. For Riley and Katherine, their Maui couples portrait session at DT Fleming Beach celebrated not one, but two beautiful moments: their first wedding anniversary and their growing family!
Visiting Maui from the Bay Area, Riley and Katherine wanted a few peaceful days to reconnect, reflect, and soak in this new chapter together. Married just a year ago, they were here not only to celebrate their love but also to announce their next adventure; they’re expecting their first baby in early 2026! Isn’t that the happiest news ever?!


One of the sweetest details? They brought ultrasound photos to include in their portraits. Against the ocean, those images felt like promises, proof of the life and love they’re building together. The photos captured both celebration and serenity, showing two people completely present, completely in love, and ready for the adventure ahead!


DT Fleming Beach was glowing that morning. The sky stretched in soft blues and golds, the kind of Maui light that makes everything shimmer. Katherine looked radiant in a flowing dress, her baby bump framed by gentle waves and warm light. Riley stood beside her, calm and beaming, holding her hand, the kind of quiet love that says everything. These two are so excited to welcome their little one into the world!









Their Maui couples portrait was more than a photo shoot. It was a pause, a way to honor where they’ve been and their sweet little one on the way! Riley and Katherine’s portraits will soon become both a pregnancy announcement and a Christmas card, a joyful snapshot of a year that changed everything.
Congratulations to you both! We wish you nothing but the best!
