The Moments That Matter Most Are Right Now
Hawaii Family Portrait Photographer
Because within the blink of an eye, today becomes the memories you’ll treasure forever.
Wether you’re documenting a meaningful milestone, or just because you’re grateful to be in each other’s presence- let’s turn your time into something tangible.
Perfect doesn’t exist, but authentic does. I capture the beauty in the real – the hugs, the laughter, even the chaos – because that’s what makes your family yours.
“Everyone was a bit nervous but your direction and energy calmed and provided space for these moments of joy. I love love love these so so much! Thank you!!!!!”
It’s so lovely to meet you!
Aloha I’m Maici Mays
A Hawaii-based family photographer with a heart for capturing the magic in your family’s everyday moments. As the eldest of seven siblings and a former nanny of 10+ years, I’ve spent my life understanding and connecting with kids.
My background in child development and years behind the camera mean I’m uniquely equipped to turn your family’s love into timeless art.
Why do I do this? Because I know how fast time flies. Kids grow up in the blink of an eye, and I believe in giving you something tangible to hold onto – a piece of their childhood that lasts forever.
With over five years of experience documenting families across the Hawaiian Islands, I blend a vibrant, true-to-color style with a mix of guided posing and candid, documentary moments. This means your photos will feel both natural and polished, capturing the authentic connections that make your family unique.
