Koda’s Bathtime Adventures
As many of you know, Ed and I are blessed to have the most wonderful dog in the world – our 2 year old Japanese Spitz, Kodachrome. We often brag that her only downside is the excessive amounts of white fur that plague our house and wardrobes (wearing our photographer-blacks means lint rollers are kept everywhere!), because she stays very clean on her own, despite being a white dog. However, there are times when she manages to somehow get herself dirty enough to require a bath, and so it’s off to the laundry room sink for her! Here are photos from today’s bath time, and I hope they amuse you as much as they amuse me – my dog makes the best expressions!
Dramatic punishment lighting.
Priceless expression of woe and resentment.
Sad dog is sad.
Happy Veteran’s Day! (And 11/11/11)
In honor of Veteran’s Day this year, I am posting the photos of four family veterans (in order): My Grandpa Jack Webb, Grandpa George Ing, Great-Uncle Fred Nagata, and my own veteran, my husband Edward White. Both my grandpas, as well as my great-uncle, are all interred at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific at Punchbowl, where, this year, Hawaii’s F-22s will fly in the missing man formation during the Veteran’s Day ceremony. Hope those guys enjoy the show! 
Thank you to all the veterans out there for serving our country!

Someone remind me to take a better portrait of that last guy in uniform before his ETS date next year! 
Pacheco Family Shoot
This week I was lucky enough to shoot a totally awesome family! Sarah, of Sarah la Glam makeup, and Fernando, of the local ska punk band Pimpbot, have the most adorable little 3-month-old girl, Lola. Here are some of my favorites from the day, so enjoy!
Orbito Family Tweetup/Shoot!
My fellow Hawaii Twitter photographers and I have started doing this new thing where we plan a tweetup asking people to take photos. Ed and I did this before he left just to get more photos of us together, and it worked out great! It can almost be treated as a workshop where we all share techniques and ideas. The most recent of these tweetups was for photographer Marc Orbito and family. There were around 5-6 photographers there at Kakaako Waterfront Park, but I somehow managed to avoid catching them in my shots!
Grandpa Jack
Wanted to share a photo that I cleaned up (removing stains, dust, and creases) of my grandfather when he was 20 years old and in the Army Air Corps for World War II. Mom’s getting a new print done for our house. Wish I had the original negative though!
Hirata Family 2009
Once again, I got to photograph one of my favorite families in the world, the Hiratas! Jonathan (light blue overshirt) is one of my oldest friends and currently working in New York City, and I’ve been photographing his sister Jen and her two little boys for the past couple years now. It’s crazy how big they’ve gotten! This time, we did a sunset beach shoot at Kamaole Beach Park on Maui.
Photo of the Day – High School Senior Pictures
I’m on the left, my dad is on the right. 40 years between these two photos. Both are retouched by the original photographers, and not by me. Been spending the day sorting through family photographs and deciding which should be scanned. Came across a ton of baby photos of my brother and I, so I’ll probably post a few of those too!
Now I just need my mom‘s senior photo, and I’ve got my set!
*EDIT*
Okay, mom sent hers, so here we are!
