Spring brings us its’ annual reminder that new life is on the way, and an exciting season of growth it is for the Steinke ʻohana as they are preparing for their new addition to make entry into the world. I had the pleasure of doing an early morning session with this super cute family and their ‘first born’, Harley as they wanted to send out some photos announcing some big things up ahead for their 2016 year. It was a chilly Saturday morning up Hualālai mountain where they bounced out of their truck with Harley, converses laced up, bright eyed, and ready to roll. Kuʻulei had contacted me via a mutual friend, and this was our first time meeting face to face. Call it what you want, but ʻblind dates’ with your clients are always a little nerve racking–you just never know how it will go, and you sometimes spend what feels like forever just making them comfortable enough around you to smile and chuckle at your corny jokes. Fortunately for me, firing off some shots of them was like a walk in the park as we chatted, as they were so easy going and laid back, and did I mention–extemely photogenic?…Winning! Mahalo Steinke’s for such a fun sesh with you and cute little Harley. Can’t wait to meet your little All Star on the way!
