Just an Island girl ready to capture love and share their storiesโฆ
โ
Hey, this is me! Taimane (โtie-mah-nayโ it means โdiamondโ in Samoan). Born and raised on Oahu, Hawaiโi and canโt imagine living anywhere else. Here in Hawaiโi it isnโt uncommon for us to be mixed; Iโm part Japanese, Hawaiian, Samoan, Korean, Spanish, Chinese, Ukrainian and so much more. I know, itโs crazy lol. But, thatโs what Hawaiโi is all about! Sharing our beautiful islands with the world.
I am soooo not a home body and crave to get out and create. I thrive off of inspiration, moods and passion.
Being a photographer and creator for about 5 years now, Iโve met so many amazing people, now friends, from around the world and had an immediate connection! It still gets me every single time someone chooses me to take their photos. To capture such special and precious moments in their life for them to take home and cherish forever. I still get butterflies every time I drive to my sessions because of the excitement I have to document peopleโs life stories.
I want the real you. Letโs capture your laughs, tears and all of those raw emotions in between. Iโm all for those who arenโt afraid to get down and dirty and those who care more about candids rather than posed. If this sounds like you, then Iโm here for ya!
