I’m truly impressed each and every time I photograph Bri and little Miss T. Every year, for the past three years, I’ve been given the wonderful opportunity to capture a few meaningful moments between this mother-daughter duo. The bond between these two is infectious, plus, who doesn’t love a fun day at the beach? Check […]

It’s been said before and I believe it to be true – Kauai is for lovers. The romance is thick in the air. This is why so many people travel here to fall in love, be married, honeymoon, and pop the big question! I am all about the love vibes and you can imagine my […]

You know what I’m afraid of? Mango sap, snakes, and poison ivy. You know what I’m NOT afraid of? PDA. In fact, I am all about it, especially when I’m photographing a gorgeous and super in-love couple like Brenda and Scott at Moloaa Bay, who were constantly stealing kisses and wrapping themselves up in each […]

The topic of discussion for today is none other than a Poipu Beach Day themed family portrait with Bri & T, super fun gals from Kauai. If the names or faces look familiar to you, it’s because I’ve photographed this duo before.  I was stoked when I got a call from Bri saying she wanted […]

When I was young girl growing up in Kansas I used to play office in my Grandma’s family home office. I had my own phone and important paperwork. I loved being a businesswoman, even at the age of 4. I remember a photo that was framed in that family room. It was a photo of […]

"The quality of the finished product 
SURPASSED MY EXPECTATIONS.
Keri was awesome the day of the wedding, she took the initiative and was creative with her approach each time. When I look back through the album, it tells a beautiful story of our wedding."

alyssa & troy

"The work you did to make sure we got great shots and where we wanted them went far above anything we expected. It was great to have you there and for you to be so enthusiastic, especially since you were our only guest at the wedding."

genni & chris

"Keri was more than just a wedding photographer; she provided personal support on my wedding day. Her relaxed nature and sweet personality calmed me down considerably on that huge day. My husband, who is very shy, and I felt that she was both professional and personal!"
