PLAYING MOANA

February 25, 2017

While wearing my gorgeous haku lei, I couldn’t help but sing the Moana song at the top of my lungs. If you haven’t heard this song,  take a moment to watch it here. The whole Moana soundtrack was on continuous play during our adventures.

These photos include my beautiful friend Larisa.  So enjoyed experiencing her island of Oahu. (Our floppy sun hats were purchased off of Etsy!)

HAKU LEI

February 25, 2017

For my trip to Hawaii, I wanted to order a flower head piece or lei. I discovered a local florist on the North Shore who specializes in custom haku leis for every occasion. Three weeks before my arrival, I emailed some inspirational photos and she worked her magic. I was SO impressed by her kindness and the quality of each haku. She far exceeded my expectations and I received numerous compliments. They lasted 5 days and enhanced my photoshoot.

You can find her on Instagram or Facebook @poehaku

QUARRESS FAMILY VACATION

February 25, 2017

Trying to coordinate 10 adult’s schedules was quite a feat.  But finally, the Quarress family vacation was happening. We rented a house on the North Shore with access to daily surfing at Pipeline. On one of the last evenings, I coerced the gang for a group photo.  Yes, this beautiful scenery was our backyard..spoiled!!!

ROPE SWING

One of the things I love about Hawaii are the rope swings found along the beaches. My favorite was off of 83 where I experienced a peaceful moment and some beautiful scenery.

NORTH SHORE SUNSET

February 25, 2017

Aloha!!!! Just enjoyed 5 glorious days on the North Shore in Hawaii with my boyfriend and his family.  We also had the privilege of seeings our best friends Dan and Larisa who’ve called Hawaii home for these past 4 months.  We rented a large house just steps away from the ocean. In the evening, we experienced incredible sunsets and watched our friends surf. Included are favorite photos from the first night.

And last but not least, the actual sunset 🙂

Discovered another beautiful white barn in Park City. Both barns are easily viewed from the highway.   Can you imagine how picturesque they will be in the summer!
