Some Recent Favorite Shots

I thought I'd share a few more random shots I've taken recently. If you're shopping for a photographer, it's good to see what types of photos each one takes best, for example, posed, candids, etc.

My Favorite Hawaiians

It's always a joy to be able to photograph your loved ones -- especially grandchildren! Don't get jealous, My Children. You still get your fair share. Without further ado, here are just a FEW of many photos of my little "locals" of Hawaii, plus a few additional pics -- I just can't resist. It's paradise, after all.
