••• Genuine AND NATURAL PHOTOS TO BRING YOUR CREATIVITY TO LIFE •••
I grew up on the Big Island of Hawaii. I started taking photos when I was 14, mostly of my brothers surfing. I grew a love for photographing places with natural light and decided to pursue my photography career. After High School, I moved to British Columbia and went to Photography school. I lived in Canada for 10 years growing my business and love for the art. I love branding and photographing love. Telling stories with my camera. I decided to move back to where I was raised and continue my business where I feel most at home in this world, Kailua Kona, Hawaii. The Big Island has and always will hold a special place in my heart.
Kai means the ocean and Li’i means small, together meaning a little part of the beach. With such a difficult name comes repetitive explanation , I have found a love in explaining to people what I represent.

Genuine moments and the messy memories. Love is simple and love is complicated. The imperfect moments are the most perfect ones and I want to help you remember them forever.
