To secure your spot with one of our Kaua'i family portrait photographers, fill out the online booking form and submit your $50 deposit. Once we receive your booking, we’ll reach out within 24 business hours to confirm your reservation.
Once your date is confirmed, we’ll also send you location and timing information straight to your inbox. We’ll make sure you feel confident and comfortable every step of the way.
Start planning for your session using our Karma Hill wardrobe guide. We’ll connect again 1 week prior to your photo session with your photographer’s contact information, and confirmation of the time and date we’ll be meeting you.
On the day of your session, your only responsibility is to show up and have fun! Your photographer will guide you as needed, and encourage you to make memories together (while forgetting the camera is there!).
One week after your photo session, you’ll receive a sneak peek of 20-30 images to enjoy. Your final gallery will be completed and delivered within 2-6 weeks depending on the season.
If there’s one thing the McCoy family’s Kauai family portrait session reminded us of, it’s this: time together is everything. This beautiful family of eight, visiting again after a few trips to the islands, chose Shipwrecks Beach for their session—and wow, did it deliver. The waves rolled in gently, the light turned golden, and the […]
If you’ve ever dreamed of a Kauai family portrait session that’s full of love, golden light, and joyful chaos—this is it. The Kilat family showed up to Shipwrecks Beach at sunset with four families, a whole lot of laughter, and even more love. This wasn’t just a photo session—it was a celebration of connection, togetherness, […]
There’s something magical about family portraits in Kauai, especially when the Luttermoser family is involved. This lively family of four traded their small-town Washington life for a dreamy sunset session at Kealia Beach. With the ocean as their backdrop, their love and laughter shone brighter than the golden hour glow. A Family Adventure on the […]
Some moments are so full of love that they don’t just happen—they radiate. The Swedberg’s Kauai family portrait session at Shipwrecks Beach? Yeah, it was one of those. Eighteen years of marriage. Countless adventures. And two little girls who are nothing short of adorable miracles. Drew and Elyse’s journey to parenthood wasn’t easy. It was […]
The Jiang family’s Kauai adventure was more than just a tropical getaway—it was a chance to slow down, soak in the island’s beauty, and make lasting memories together. With their grandparents joining them, they knew this was the perfect time to capture a heartfelt Kauai family portrait! And what better place to do so than […]
We were delighted to capture the Montpellier’s Kauai family portrait! Ben and his family have been lucky enough to visit the Hawaiian islands several times, but this is extra special. Kauai is their favorite (hello, stunning landscapes and killer sunsets!), and this trip marks a first for his brother Mac, his wife Kelly, their adorable […]
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 brighter more tropical look and it’s usually less windy! Sunset sessions create a warmer light with a beautiful Hawaii sunset in the background.
There are so many amazing locations for your portrait session in Kaua'i. When you book with us, we’ll help you choose the perfect spot for your group.
Our Kaua'i Locations Page is a great resource to learn more about our favorite locations for photography,
Our most important tip is to wear something you feel good in. Our second most important tip? Coordinate, don’t match. And if you need more support, we have a guide for that!
With a full team of Kaua'i family photographers, we assign someone based on your booked date. Every one of our team members is highly trained in Karma Hill’s signature style, so no matter who you work with, you’re going to have a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Luckily, it hardly ever rains in our favorite photo locations! But if it does, we could either relocate your session to a different spot on the island or we can try to reschedule at no additional charge.
Good news—there’s NO limit to the number of pictures we take during your photo session! The amount of photos you can expect is based on the amount of time we shoot for and your package selection.
We require a $50 deposit to reserve your session date, and the remaining balance is due two days before your session. We’ll send you an invoice so you can easily pay online via credit card.
We know that waiting to see your pictures is the hardest part, so we’ll post a sneak peek of your session on our blog about a week later! Your completed final gallery will be ready to view about 3-4 weeks after your session.
You’ll receive a link in your email inbox to visit your private online gallery. From there, you can download and share your photos!
Our beach portraits are designed to capture the natural interaction between you and your loved ones, so we don’t bring props unless asked. If you have a request, please let us know! If we have it, we’re happy to bring it with us.
While we think that Hawaii is amazing, we think that the times you’ll share with your favorite people are even better. Capture each moment with the help of our Kaua'i Family portrait photographers and remember the time you spent together in paradise.
