Tara and Chris are amazing photographers in Toronto.
They came out to Hawaii for a workshop we attended together.

We HAD to get some shots with the van and them in Hawaii.

Gunstock Ranch.








Most visitors don't know this, but we have a ranch right here in Laie.
It's tucked up in the mountains.
There are people who live here and haven't even been up there.
I had the opportunity to do a little exploring with a few dear friends and we came across beauty after beauty.
In case you haven't been able to tell, I'm a country girl at heart.
Being able to go adventure the rolling hills of Gunstock brought me peace and a feeling of home.
I absolutely love it.
It's official - I have the best of both worlds.
I don't know how I'll ever leave.
I love this place I call home.

Psst- Don't forget:
I'm coming to San Diego in just a few short weeks! I still have a few sessions available so let's make some memories! Details HERE.

Meet the Hansen Family! I had the chance to photograph them while they came out to Hawaii for a visit.
Their little boy Asher just tugged at my heart strings. He was full of adventure, laughs, and imagination!

FIND Business.


Last month I was able to meet some amazing people who have forever changed me.
Like I said before, I had the opportunity to attend FIND 2.0 here in Laie.
I was hesitant in signing up not because I thought it wouldn't be amazing (it was amazing in every single way) but I didn't know if it applied to me yet. Many of those that signed up have been in the business for years and years. After reading the reviews for the workshop and talking to Jon, I knew that it would be an even more amazing opportunity for me to go to this workshop now. Now-before I even made any mistakes, before I made bad habits, now because who says we have to wait another day before learning brilliant business lessons from 2 business gurus?

So I went.
I went to the workshop and it was amazing. Every single thing that Jon and Kristen talked about applied to everyone. It didn't matter what level we were at with our business. Sitting next to Kirk & seeing him take as many notes as I did proved to me that this was for everyone! That was amazing.

It was worth every single penny. Kristen & Jon are complete Yin & Yang - they fed off of each other and showed us how we don't have to do things one way. If one person didn't do things the way we needed to learn to do them, the other person had. All of the attendees have different situations and different businesses. It was so nice to see how there were principles and solutions for all of us - and they weren't all the same. And guess what - Kristen and Jon both learned a thing or two at the workshop too. Yes, that's how in depth and beneficial this workshop is.

There was so much support at this workshop. Support for each other, not just as business owners, but as people. There's so much more that goes into a business than money or marketing - we pour our souls into what we do. This workshop fed our souls. This workshop was a sense of therapy - I kid you not. We got down to the heart of why we do what we do, lifted each other up, grew, and left with friends who we can now go to for anything. We left with a new family. It. was. awesome.

I'm going to tell you that if you can ever go to this workshop you will have no regrets.
You will bless your business, your life, and the lives of those you meet.
You will thrive.

I know that not everyone can go to this workshop - so there's a solution.
The FIND Biz Guide will give you so much. You will relate. You will feel support. You will have a support system. You will learn to thrive and how to feed your soul. Before I went to the workshop, I bought FIND Biz. It is exactly what everyone needs to know. Don't wait another day. It relates to those just beginning and those that are well into their business. It makes you get down to the heart of why you do what you do. It will make you step up and make those business decisions that will bless your business and your family. It is the best thing you can do for your business today. I can honestly say that when I bought the guide I literally stayed up all night reading it. By morning I could never look at how I was doing business before again. I was uplifted and ready to make this business thrive for my family.
I encourage you to buy this guide.
I know for a fact that today is the last day on an amazing sale for this guide. (Get it here)
I also know for a fact that it will never be this price again. (So get it.)

Take the time to improve your business and your life. Feed your soul.
Cut out this evening to do some reading and some major rethinking.
I'll get a few dollars if you buy one, but even if I didn't - Again, I would tell you: GO THRIVE!
Go feed your soul! Go make changes for your business and family that you will not regret.
Make it happen today.

Hailey





Hailey just married Carlos on Saturday.
I am SO happy for them!
Hailey and I are both small town gals from Idaho (our parents are literally neighbors) who ended up in Hawaii and became island girls.
I was so thrilled to be able to take some photos of her before her big day.
Carlos and Hailey are off on a honeymoon on Big Island now!
Wishing them the very very best!
