Hi Guys!! I’m Kari—your Kauai photographer and biggest hype girl behind the camera. Kauai girl for life, and happily raising my 4 kids in the same little town I grew up in. I capture weddings, elopements, family sessions, and meaningful moments all across the island—from the cliffs of Poipu to the beautiful mountain backdrops of Hanalei, the scenic overlooks of Princeville, and the hidden gems of Kapaʻa. My approach is relaxed, natural, and rooted in connection, so your photos feel like you—not posed or forced, but real, emotional, and full of life.
I believe your day deserves to be felt just as much as it’s photographed. The quiet in-between moments, the laughter you didn’t plan, the way the light hits during a soft Kauai sunrise or a glowing tropical sunset—those are the moments I’m drawn to. Whether you’re planning a luxury wedding, an adventurous elopement, or a simple beach session with your family, I focus on creating an experience that feels effortless, fun, and true to who you are.
When I’m not behind the camera, I’m usually out exploring Kauai with my family, we are usually up before the roosters, searching for a good sunrise, or finding new off-the-beaten-path locations, and simply enjoying our time together—no matter where we are. That love for connection and presence is woven into every session I photograph—helping you not just remember how it looked, but exactly how it felt.
