In Rememberance – The Patricio’s Oahu Family Portrait
Some sessions are more than just beautiful photos. They’re stories, stitched together with love, resilience, and legacy. That was exactly the case with the Patricio’s Oahu family portrait session at Wai’alae Beach.
This wasn’t just a vacation. It was a memorial trip, one made in loving memory of their father/grandfather, whom they lost last year. And oh, the heart woven into every smile, every embrace, every barefoot-in-the-sand moment? You could feel it.
Waialae gave them the perfect backdrop: swaying palms, soft skies, and the soothing rhythm of the ocean. But what truly lit up these photos was the love they brought with them. Each generation, each sibling, each child, holding space for one another while honoring someone who meant the world to them. It was the kind of session that reminds you why we do this. Why photos matter.
Because memories fade, but photographs they hold on. They become the heirlooms, the stories told years from now. And here they’ll have these joyful, colorful, soul-hugging images as proof of the love that lives on. All we have is the present moment to enjoy, which is why taking family portraits is so important to us and for families like the Patricios. Because those cheeky little faces? They grow up so fast!
From sweet moments between parents and kids, to cousin giggles and celebrating new life, it was all there. Real, raw, and radiant. We kept the photography style light, bright, and full of life, just like their energy. Think: soft hues, gentle pastel skies, candid interactions, and a touch of editorial polish. Nothing stiff or posed, just real connection, captured effortlessly.
To the Patricio family: mahalo for letting us be part of this. Your love for him, and for each other, was so deeply felt and beautifully seen. These photos are more than portraits. They’re a celebration. A tribute. A forever kind of keepsake. We’re honored to have captured every moment. We hope you have an amazing time in Hawaii, knowing he’s right by your side!
