Just relax and get ready to have photos you love
My goal for every lifestyle photoshoot is to form a connection where our time together feels laid back and fun. Photoshoots are so much more than just photos - This is a terrific time to form joyful memories and enjoy yourselves ! Don’t worry if you are nervous to be in front of the camera or have a significant other than is not the biggest fan of photos. Both are absolutely normal which is why I keep things stress free. This is about spending time together in a beautiful place while I capture those winning shots with ease + helpful gentle direction.
Some Client Love …
“It was our first family vacation and I wanted to take some photos along the beach. Gaylin was great with our little fam and was so sweet and fun. It was our first professional family photoshoot and Gaylin made it extra special by capturing all the smiles we had had, especially our little one. It was fun as such a great time!” -Janessa
We booked a shoot because we wanted family pictures in Hawaii since we never get them here. We wanted some candid and fun shots of the family. It went so well and Gaylin was so fantastic right from the start. She was able to fit us into her schedule after a last-minute cancellation from another photographer from another site. We are SO happy we winded up with Gaylin. She was so thoughtful in all her planning and so good with our kids (6 and 3). We got beautiful pictures we'll treasure forever! -Erica
“Gaylin is awesome. She has great communication skills, is very prompt to respond, and is easy to work with. We did a maternity photo shoot and it was fun and chill. We did poses she recommended and she gave us time to do poses we wanted as well. We also loved our pictures!!” -Shailee
“Gaylin was so great!! Highly recommend her. She clearly knows what she is doing and I appreciated her guidance with poses and patience with 2 young boys.” -Andrea
We booked a shoot because it was our first family vacation with our new baby and wanted to remember the special time. The photoshoot was amazing Gaylin made it very easy and comfortable. She was such a pro. We did some posed shots but also some candid natural pictures which I love and made sure to ask if there was anything else we wanted. -Mia
“We needed updated family pictures & thought the beautiful scenery in Maui during our vacation would be perfect! The photoshoot was amazing from start to finish. There aren't enough positive things to say about Gaylin. She was highly communicative & helped us before, during, and after the photoshoot. She made our family (including 6-year-old daughter) feel extremely comfortable the entire time. We had a BLAST working with her and everything felt natural. The pictures are GORGEOUS. We honestly loved every single one. We highly recommend her and can't wait to hang up these beautiful memories in our home. We can't thank you enough Gaylin!” - Jason
“ We wanted professional photos with our 5-month-old. The photoshoot went amazing. We couldn’t have asked for better photographs. Gaylin was amazing! She was very communicative and gave us directions on how to get to Baby Beach. She texted me upon her arrival and told us exactly where to meet. She gave us plenty of direction during the shoot so we knew what to do in the photos and the photos turned out absolutely amazing! If we make it back to Maui we would definitely book Gaylin again!” - Robin
I am the right fit for you if -
1. You are comfortable with helpful direction for images BUT absolutely okay with letting go to allow moments like your little ones playing in the water or collecting sea shells just happen.
2. You have had photos before or you have never had photos taken before.
3. You trust me to guide you through the shoot. Don’t stress about what your child is doing or if your spouse isn’t thrilled to be there. I know what to do so let me give you all a laid back session that will be enjoyable for everyone.
4. You want to fully enjoy your time here on island ! Whether that is getting in the water to splash/play or taking a moment to take in the beauty of the scenery with your family. Just be. Enjoy. Don’t focus on the camera(s) and allow the special moments to happen.
