Whether you’re visiting the island or call Hawaii home — you should always take family beach portraits in Maui! The Zaimas joined us on the shores of Palauea Beach last week for a photo session. We captured memories we know they’ll treasure forever. Not to mention, their pictures will look beautiful on the walls of their house. Continue scrolling to see them for yourself.

The Zaimas are a charming family of four who live on the island! We had a great time with Loveal, her husband, Nakai, and their two sweet sons. When this delightful bunch arrived at the sandy shores, they were cheerful, energetic, and high-spirited! They made it easy for us to capture lighthearted pictures. Above all, we’re excited to see which portraits are their favorites! Keep scrolling to see more.

The Lighthearted Beach Portraits in Maui

Palauea Beach was the backdrop for this session, and we adore every landscape at this spot! We captured portraits on the long shoreline and with the lush greenery. Then, the icing on the cake was the beautiful weather at this destination. The soft blue sky was free of clouds — letting the morning sun gleam down vibrantly! This natural brilliance made every shot feel more vibrant and dreamy.

These little ones are adorable. We captured Maui beach portraits of them running around and having fun. Then, they gave us some of their happiest facial expressions! Most importantly, we’re glad they enjoyed their seaside time!

However, these pictures are our favorite ones! We adore how the Zaima family wasn’t afraid to be playful or laugh with the camera. No doubt, these photos will look gorgeous hanging on the walls of their home!

A warm Mahalo to the Zaima family! Thank you for letting us capture these moments for you. We wish you a future full of new adventures and unforgettable memories!
