Sweet Baby K {Oahu Hawaii Newborn Photographer}

I seriously photograph the prettiest babies on the island! The moment this sweet little girl came into the studio, I knew she would be the perfect little model :) She was sound asleep for almost the entire session. I had so much fun photographing her and her family. She is definitely going to be a spoiled little girl, but in a good way. I could just feel the love pouring out from her family, it was so beautiful. I just love what I do!

XOXO

Developing New Lightroom Presets {Newborn Photographer Oahu Hawaii}

Whew!!! Wouldn't you just love to have a button that you could press and VIOLA you get what you want instantly!?!?! Chances are that won't ever happen (sorry to bust your bubble), BUT I almost felt that way when I developed a new LR preset to use when editing my newborns! Newborn sessions take me the longest to edit...when I say long...I mean 4-6 hours. Sometimes more! EEeeekk. I know, crazy right!?!? So I will use any bit of help I can get. Thankfully I've been working on developing presets for a few months now and finally feel like I hit the jack pot!

Do you have something that you wish you could just press a button and make happen?? What was that commercial a few years ago that featured the "RED" button that people would push??

Have a Beautiful Day!!!

How gorgeous is this sweet little girl! She was such a joy to photograph! She was so sweet and peaceful during throughout the entire session! I especially loved having the opportunity to be able to capture a beautiful generation portrait featuring 3 generations. I know her family feels so blessed to be able to welcome this perfect little girl into their family. Thank you for allowing me to capture this special moment!

Happy Mother's Day {Oahu Hawaii Photographer Norma Mitchell}

This was a very special session that I was so honored to do. They are both family's of deployed soldiers. While their husband are off defending our country, these women are here defending their homes. It is not an easy job to be a wife and mom while your other half is gone for a very long time. Military wives are the strongest women I have ever met. Strong in life, strong in patience, strong in faith, strong in love...

Thank you to all the Military Mommies for everything that you have sacrificed. Thank you to your husbands for everything they have sacrificed. 

Happy Mother's Day!

XOXO

The S Family {Oahu Hawaii Family Photographer}

This family holds a special place in my heart :) I was so honored to do their family session, thanks to a very special friend. This family is a true military family, and a strong one at that! They have a very special story that will bring tears, smiles and hope all at once. The beautiful ALOHA sun was shining on them during their session, highlighting their love for each other.

WHAT!?!? Already 2 Years Old!! {Oahu Hawaii Newborn Infant Baby Child Photographer}

Sweet J has been coming for her milestone sessions since she was 6 months old! I can't believe how much she has grown and how fast time has gone by! It seems just like yesterday I was doing her first session :) This is one of my favorite parts of what I do! I am able to capture their growth over the few years that I am at each location we are relocated to :) Sometimes I am really lucky and have a few clients move to the same location I go to!!

Sweet Baby Boys, Models for my recent Workshop {Oahu Hawaii Newborn Infant Baby Norma Mitchell Photography}

I am excited to share these portraits of the three precious baby boys who modeled for use during my recent newborn workshop. I couldn't have asked for better models! Can you believe I had all boys :) They were so sweet and did a beautiful job! I was able to go through all the poses as planned. I'm so thankful we had such cooperative models :) I hope they are being good little boys for their mommies :)

XOXO
