Photography and history go together, and I think every photographer is a bit of a historian whether they realize it or not. So to be able to photograph people, particularly a person/family/people group over the decades is priceless.  I recently went through a bunch of my families photos from over forty years ago when my parents where in their 20’s and first living in Hawai’i.  It was crazy to see people in these photographs who look about your age in the photos and you realize that’s so and so’s dad, and now he looks just like him.  So maybe one day when Abigail is in her twenties, and looking just as beautiful as Kyra, she’ll not only get a kick at going through these photos, but a sense of history, pride, and belonging of her roots:  Her ‘ohana, and where she comes from.  May she recognize the love that her parents have always had for her since the get go.

Here’s to the Acasio ‘Ohana history in da making!
