One night in Maui, my husband and I were sitting on the beach, preparing to watch another beautiful Hawaiian sunset. There was a photographer down the way photographing a lovely family of 4 all dressed in white (gasp! But it actually looked great). I had my camera by my side and I had snapped a few pics here and there, but I was totally uninspired. I was aching to photograph people...gosh, wouldn't a couple be so lovely in this amazing light?!

Lo and behold, there was a couple sitting near us. They were so cute and so in love and just having a great time. So, photographer geek that I am, I walked up to them and asked if they'd like me to take their picture. I can't believe they agreed! They must have thought I was some strange goofball tourist. But sometimes, you just have to go for it and I'm so glad we did!
