Some birthdays call for more than cake and candles. Shveta’s 40th was one of those milestones, and the Kalra family knew exactly how to celebrate, by capturing the moment with a Maui family portrait they’ll treasure forever!
Their session was more than a photoshoot. It was the kind of togetherness that only happens when everyone hits pause on their busy lives to be in one place, at one time. The photos capture it all: bright, airy, joyful images that hold more than smiles. They hold memories they will never get back… We can’t think of a better way to ring in a new year, a new decade, than a family portrait on the beach!



Here’s the thing about Maui family portraits. Sometimes family portraits aren’t always easy to plan, but they are always worth it. Because years from now, it won’t be the texts or the quick snapshots on phones that you reach for. It will be these images, like the Kalras. The ones that show the love, the pride in parents’ eyes, the way everyone leaned in a little closer because they wanted to. That’s the magic of portraits, they remind us not just of how we looked, but of how it felt to be together.
Their sweet son was all for it, too! He had so much fun giving us his best smiles and even showing off his style too! How cute is he?! They had so much fun during their portrait session and made our job so easy by simply being right in the moment where the three of them were all that mattered.










Birthdays are the perfect time to make it happen. They bring everyone together, already brimming with love and celebration. Adding a portrait session turns the occasion into something even more special, a gift that will last far longer than a night out or a wrapped box.
For the Kalras, Shveta’s 40th wasn’t just a vacation. It was a reminder that family is everything, and photos are the proof we get to keep!


Happy birthday, Shveta! Your Maui portraits are more than beautiful, they’re priceless. Have a fantastic time celebrating in Maui!
