Some family trips are about rest. Others are about adventure. And then there are the ones that become part of your family lore, the kind you’ll reference years from now with a smile and a remember when. The Rich family’s Maui family portrait at DT Fleming Beach was exactly that kind of moment!
This trip carried layers of meaning. Clay and Jessica have been married for 20 years, building a life filled with laughter, teamwork, and three boys who bring nonstop energy to every space they enter. Jack (Zu) and Karen (Mini), Clay’s parents and seasoned Hawaii travelers, gifted this trip to the family. It was a gesture rooted in love and generosity. With their own 50th wedding anniversary on the horizon in 2026, the gathering felt like a celebration of legacy, connection, and the joy of being together!






For Max, Miles, and Micah, this was their very first time in Hawaii. And they showed up with all the typical boy energy you’d expect. Soccer skills, playful roughhousing, endless movement, and plenty of silliness (sometimes to Mom’s mild dismay). But that’s the magic of it. These aren’t “perfect” moments, they’re real ones. The kind you want to remember exactly as they are!
DT Fleming Beach provided the perfect setting: rolling waves and space to move freely. The boys got silly, laughed, and leaned into each other while Clay and Jessica soaked it all in, clearly aware that these phases pass quickly. Zu and Mini watched with pride, their smiles carrying decades of family history and love. You can just tell how close of a family they are!
















These photos aren’t just images; they’re a visual reminder of a season. Of boys growing up. Of parents holding the middle. And of grandparents who make moments like this possible. A snapshot of a trip, a family, and all the joy that lives in between. We hope you have a great time!
