Kauai is such a special island. When Hurricane Iniki hit the island, my dad was one of the first responders in the construction industry to head over to help rebuild. He was there for a year and flew home to Maui two weekends a month. Several times, us kids got to go there and hang with Pops for the weekend.
Kauai is where I got my first Blockbuster card, it’s where I felt brave to go out on the rocks really far in the ocean and jump off into the calm waters of Lumahai Beach (which isn’t always calm), it’s where I bought my first ever piece of real ‘art’ for my home.
I always say that Maui is my favorite, but truth be told, Kauai is a very close second.
So when the flooding happened, I found myself thinking “how can I help?” and wondering what my dad would do in this situation. And while I was thinking, my good friend Angela Nelson reached out with idea – a really great idea – and Maui Photographers for Kaua’i was born!
Together, we are offering mini-sessions to benefit Kaua’i. Most of them will be happening on April 29 around the island of Maui.
HOW TO BOOK:
- Contact the photographer you’d like to photograph you!
- Confirm availability with them! These slots will likely go fast, so you’ll want to pay ASAP
- Pay with the Go Fund Me link
- Your photographer will confirm and send you instructions about your mini-session!
This is a one-time only special with a limit of 6 people per session. I am offering TWO of these sessions at
6:15pm at Kanaha Beach (third entrance)
If you’d like to grab one of my sessions, please email me at mariah@mariahmilan.com
All proceeds will be going to a non-profit under Maui Photographers for Kaua’i. If you don’t want a mini session but would still like to contribute, please do!
