Some families return to Kauai because it feels like a second home, warm, familiar, and filled with moments that matter. For the Joseph family, visiting from Alaska for the sixth time, their Kauai family portrait session at Kealia Beach was more than a tradition. It was a celebration of who they are right now, messy, […]
Some trips feel like coming home, familiar, full of laughter, and wrapped in love. For the Guanlao family, their Kauai family portrait session was exactly that. Six years ago, Mom and Dad honeymooned on this very island, and returning with their two little ones, a bright-eyed three-year-old birthday boy and his sweet one-year-old sister, made […]
The Horgan’s Kauai family portrait session at Hanalei Bay was the kind of day that reminds you why family photos matter so much. Visiting Kauai to celebrate Mom’s birthday, this was their first trip to Hawaii as a full family, and their three energetic boys, ages 3, 4, and 8, made sure it was one […]
Kauai family portrait sessions are always special, but the Brauners made theirs unforgettable! Visiting from Boston for Ido’s Bar Mitzvah trip, this was their first-ever professional portrait together and they chose the calm beauty of Anini Beach as their backdrop. Reut and Eran, the parents, brought their crew of three: Ido (13), Mika (9), and […]
Some families collect postcards. Others collect seashells. The Datello-Byrnes family? They collect memories in the form of Kauai family portraits on the island’s golden shores. And honestly, it’s the most beautiful tradition. Visiting from Albany, NY, this family of four returned to the island for their fourth portrait session with Karma Hill Photography. Their story […]
Some photoshoots are more than just a session; they’re a celebration! The Hopkins’ Kauai family portrait was exactly that: a sun-drenched, barefoot, ocean-breeze kind of celebration.

What time of day is best for portraits? Morning or sunset?
Morning and sunset are both great times of day for portraits so it really depends on the look you want for your pictures. Morning sessions give a more tropical look and it’s usually less windy with brighter natural light! Sunset sessions create a warmer light with a beautiful Hawaii sunset in the background.
