Aloha, Meet the Araki-Regan Ohana! Well, most of you probably know them already. They are very active individuals in the community also as a family. I've known Lynn since high school and met her son, Riley and husband,Keith for the first time. Lynn always has a smile on her face even though it seems she's a workaholic. Riley is a wonderful, high spirited little boy who smiles a lot like his mommy~ I would describe Keith as their protector! He loves and adores his wife and son~ 

Have a wonderful Mother's Day Weekend!

One day while cleaning my father inlaw's house I found this huge, grey lawn garbage bag. When I opened it up I saw 2 beautiful wedding dresses. It was obviously not taken cared of and I immediately took it and found a more proper place to put it in the house. Well, I found out that my sister-in law had a friend that gave these dresses to her a few years ago and she worked at Watabe Wedding Corporation in Kahului.

So, what better way to make use of it............in a shoot! I got some pretty ladies to model theses dresses and we did a mock wedding dress shoot! Whatever you call it.............hehehehehe:) The dresses were gorgeous and the girls had fun wearing and modeling in it! So, here's a few from that shoot~
