This session was a surprise Christmas gift. Mom carefully planned so Dad wouldn’t suspect a thing!

We had a lot of fun at Lanikai Beach, including dressing for the season. All you need to be the cutest girl at the party is a pretty red and white pettiskirt! (Hat optional).

And who could resist this adorable baby mermaid?

Dad is a musician, so of course this little girl is a budding pianist. She loves composing on her tot-size piano, making this shot a must have.

I’m sure this rockin’ family had a very merry Christmas!

I’m a little (okay, maybe a LOT) biased, but my favorite baby of 2010 celebrated his half birthday just before Christmas. To mark the occasion, we headed up to Helemano Farms in Wahiawa in addition to our holiday themed studio mini session.

I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m the only person on island who owns an actual sled. It’s fun for Christmas beach portraits, but this year we took it to a more typical location. It was great for containing my active crawler.

Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas, and may Santa bring all the gifts on your list this year!
