A Birthday to Remember – The Coburn’s Maui Family Portrait
When Sue turned 75, her family did what all the best families do: they got on a plane to Maui, gathered their whole crew, and celebrated in the most meaningful way, by simply being together. And naturally, they brought the party to their Maui family portrait session where the waves hum a soft lullaby and the golden hour light just knows how to make everyone glow.
This wasn’t just a photoshoot; it was a multigenerational masterpiece. From the littlest grandkids running barefoot along the shore, to Sue and her husband sharing a sweet, sandy embrace (seriously, these two melted us), every moment radiated connection and joy.
Big Smiles
The portraits were a beautiful mix of posed and playful posing, laughing, kiddos hugging their mom and dad tight. And everyone coming together in a triumphant “we’re here, we’re together, and we’re doing just fine” kind of way. How adorable are these? Our photographer made sure to capture all the families, all the smiles, all the faces, all the love…everyone was so happy to just be together!
Sue was radiant in white, her smile saying more than any toast ever could. This Maui family portrait session captured not just her milestone, but the legacy of love and laughter she’s built around her.
And when they all held hands in a line at sunset? Oh, forget it. That silhouette shot deserves its own movie poster!
Coburn family, thank you for letting us witness your aloha spirit, your closeness, and this incredibly special moment. You reminded us that the best kind of celebration doesn’t always need a big production, it just needs the ocean, the people you love most, and maybe a sandy group hug or two. Happy Birthday, Sue!!
