Ashlan and Cale’s Maui couples portrait at DT Fleming Beach was the kind of session that made us want to throw confetti into the ocean. Because here’s the thing: milestone moments deserve a spotlight. And celebrating both a babymoon and a fourth wedding anniversary? That’s the kind of monumental life chapter that begs to be captured in sun-kissed photographs like these!
Visiting Maui for the very first time (after a trip to Honolulu a few years ago), these two wanted more than just pretty pictures; they wanted memories. The kind of images that tell the story of this fleeting, magical season before baby girl #2 arrives in January. Their portraits blended sweet couple photos with the gentle joy of pregnancy shots, weaving together love, anticipation, and the kind of excitement you can’t script…and can we talk about that golden light? It doesn’t get any more photogenic than this!



DT Fleming Beach was the perfect backdrop: golden sand, turquoise waves, and the kind of breezy light that makes everything glow. Ashlan’s happiness practically radiated, and Cale’s easy smile matched it perfectly. Together, they reminded us why it’s so important to pause and document the in-between moments, the anniversaries, the pregnancies, the trips taken to savor just a little more “us time” before life changes again.
Because let’s face it: memories fade, babies grow, and anniversaries stack up faster than we realize. But portraits? They freeze the joy, the laughter, and the tenderness. They’re proof of the love that built this family, and the love that will carry it into its next beautiful chapter…










Congratulations, Ashlan and Cale, not just on four years of marriage, but on the baby girl you’ll soon be holding. Maui gave you the gift of stunning scenery, but you gave each other the gift of being fully present in this once-in-a-lifetime moment. And that? That’s monumental. Mahalo for choosing Karma Hill Photography! We wish you all the luck and good health as you welcome your little one!
