Open Hearts – The Justiss’ Big Island Family Portrait
Some family trips feel like a deep, happy breath, long-awaited, joy-filled, and overflowing with memories you know you’ll treasure forever. For the Justiss family, their Big Island family portrait session at Kukio Beach captured all of that and more.
While Dad and the grandparents had visited the Big Island years ago, this was the first time for Mom and all three kids, which made every moment feel even more magical! Traveling together as a three-generation crew already filled the trip with excitement, but stepping onto Kukio Beach added a whole new layer of wonder.
The kids were so happy to be on the beach, as you can imagine! It was unfiltered energy, only a vacation can bring. And the best part? Their smiles were completely natural. No forced posing, no awkward moments, just honest, joyful expressions that lit up every frame…
Quality Moments We Can’t Forget
Mom and Dad looked incredible, relaxed and glowing in the soft Big Island light, while the grandparents watched with proud, love-filled smiles. Together, they created the kind of effortless beauty that makes Hawaii family portraits so special, a blend of candid chaos, gentle moments, and sun-kissed happiness.
Kukio Beach, with its golden sand and sparkling water, wrapped them in warmth as they laughed, posed, and played. The entire session felt like the best kind of adventure, one where everyone was fully present, fully happy, and fully immersed in the magic of being together in such a breathtaking place.
This wasn’t just a photoshoot. It was the best time, a joyful celebration of first-time wonder, family connection, and moments they’ll hold onto long after the trip is over!
Justiss family, you looked amazing, joyful, natural, and completely yourselves! These portraits will forever remind you of the sunshine, laughter, and love that filled your Big Island getaway! We hope you had amazing quality time together!
