  1. Promise we will go to Hawaii together someday 🌺🏝️👇🏻 Hawaii is one of my favorite places in the world and picking which island to visit could be challenging. Here is a short guide to help you pick: 1️⃣ Big Island (Hawaiʻi Island) An island of pure variety. See active volcanoes inside Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, wander lava fields that feel otherworldly, and relax on beaches with black, white, or even green sand. 2️⃣ Maui Waterfalls, bamboo forests, and endless views. Drive the iconic Road to Hana for cliffside curves and cascades, swim beneath hidden falls, or catch sunrise above the clouds at Haleakalā National Park. 3️⃣ Kauai Home to the legendary Nā Pali Coast,towering ridgelines best seen on a sunset catamaran, a helicopter ride, or from the Kalalau Trail. Explore hikes like Awa’awapuhi or Sleeping Giant, then unwind on beaches tucked beneath emerald mountains. It’s Hawaii at its wildest. 4️⃣ Oahu City energy meets island adventure. Wander Honolulu’s food scene, relax on Waikiki, then escape to ridge hikes like the Koko Crater Stairs or Lanikai Pillbox. Surf breaks, turquoise water, and sunset vibes everywhere. 5️⃣ Molokai Quiet, grounded, and deeply local. Meet some of the warmest communities in Hawaii, explore the soaring sea cliffs of the north shore, or visit the historic Kalaupapa Peninsula for a glimpse into the island’s past. A slower, more authentic escape. Hawaii | Oahu | Maui | Kauai | USA | Travel | Roadtrip | National Park | Hiking | Waterfalls | Travel Guide | Travel Inspiration . #kauai #travel #hawaii

  1. Bri, Bucket, and Dagwood: a love story for the ages. I’ve been photographing them for nearly ten years now, but these are different. When I began dreaming of this new project, I knew they had to be my first subjects. Dogs getting older is one of the most beautiful and deeply upsetting parts of life. To love a dog is to know you’re welcoming eventual heartbreak. I used to cry every birthday starting when my Charlie boy turned 5, all the way until his 14th, but none of it prepared me for the first one without him. Since then, I’ve been dreaming of a photography project focused on the connection we share with our old dogs. The ones who have been through the weeds of life with us, many for over a decade. I’ve photographed human love stories for 10+ years and hope to capture many more, but this type of love story has always been an undercurrent in my heart. I’m so beyond excited to finally announce what I’m cheekily calling Senior Sessions 🐾 A photo session to document this moment in time together, your connection, the details of them you want to never forget. The way your hands feel in their fur, the grey around their nose, the shape of their ears. The way they fit in your arms, the way you relax when their neck is resting on yours. I want to capture the tenderness and love. These sessions are not formal, not human portraiture, but a window into your life together, just as it is right now. 45-minute Senior Sessions are open for booking now in Moab, Utah starting in January. Gifting is available, reach out for more info. Details linked in my bio + story. I can’t wait to pet your dog 💛

  3. Less than an hour before 13-year-old Abby passed, I met up with her and her mom, Katie to memorialize their great love. We had just about 15 mins to capture these memories before Dr. Jason of @lapofloveveterinaryhospice arrived- this was the quickest shoot I had ever done. Due to her condition and decline, things happened very last minute and fast. I was worried about the quality of photos I’d be able to get in that short of a period of time. The intention behind sharing the short duration of the session goes to show how pure their love is. And how effortless is way to capture SO much in such a small time. But let me tell you: even 30 seconds with these two and magic could have been captured. Within those 15 short minutes time it felt (to me) as if truly stood still while watching them. The only two beings in the world in that time were Abby and Katie. They soaked up each others love, snuggled on the side walk, and sat amongst the tulips in their yard while the set sun cast a golden light upon them. With the greatest love, comes the greatest grief. A culmination of years of friendship captured in a handful of vulnerable, raw moments. I leave you with a few words Abby’s mom shared about her: “She turned 13 the day before passing. Her favorite activities included the beach, following her nose wherever it took her, digging in the garden, treats, and belly rubs. She was kind-hearted and gentle, forgiving and just an all-around happy girl. She came to me when I was 19, and she 1.5, and stayed by my side through every up and down since. She has been my best friend and companion for the last 12 years. She fought bravely and courageously throughout a difficult battle with lar-par/golpp, in addition to renal and arthritis. But even on her last of days, she spent it running on the beach. Her body may have been failing her, but her spirits never did. “ Thank you for sharing this time with me, Abby and Katie. 🧡 #endoflifepetphotography #thetillyproject

  2. Seven lessons to start mastering landscape photography! With @casaramoon / "I moved to Italy at 17 as an exchange student for my last year of high school, which sparked my curiosity about the world and comfort with solo travel. Six years and 25 countries later, I graduated from university and moved to Seattle. A friend took me on a hike close to home, and it was the first time I had ever seen an alpine lake with a snow-capped mountain. I started hiking every weekend, first with just my iPhone, and after about six months of posting on Instagram for friends, I realized I wanted to be able to capture those moments even better. So, I bought my first camera in January 2019, and everything changed: 1) I found a community that inspired me daily: real-life friends with the same hobbies. Building a community of like-minded individuals can provide inspiration and support, enhancing your photography journey. 2) I learned going at sunrise creates a magical soft light that I fell in love with and wanted to capture. 3) I started noticing the little things hiking and always aim to capture the “perfect moment.” 4) The number one ingredient for a great landscape photo is a clear subject that draws the viewer’s eyes in. Natural landscapes can be busy and almost messy, but using shadows and light and focusing on one main subject can create something magical. 5) The other three main ingredients are shooting around sunrise or sunset when light is best, being patient and waiting for the right moment, and visualizing the desired end result, both shooting and editing. 6) My main focus when editing is enhancing the image to make a more magical and vivid display of what I saw in real life. 7) The two things I focus on the most are color balance and proper contrast. Having warmer tones in the highlights and cooler tones in the shadows really brings balance to the image." @casaramoon: What other valuable lessons have you acquired while transitioning from an amateur to a professional? 📸

  1. Hey y’all… it’s Lindsey (@lovesongphotography) My heart is shattered to share this. I promised Criscilla I would walk this journey with her whenever she couldn’t stand on her own two feet, and I pray she knows how fiercely she was loved. Being by her side until the very end was the greatest honor of my life. These are her words, written from her heart: --- My sweet community, If you’re reading this, I’ve finally slipped into the arms of Jesus — peacefully and surrounded by love. Please don’t stay in the darkness of this moment. I fought hard and I loved deeply. I am not gone… I’m Home. To my children — my whole heart. Ethan, you made me a mom. I’m still beside you, cheering you on. Savannah, my bonus girl — you were a gift God knew I needed. Emmarie, my Jesus-loving dancer — keep dancing through every season. Everleigh, my bright spark — chase your dreams boldly and without fear. My babies… I am watching over you. When a moment feels warm, familiar, or too beautiful to be coincidence — that’s me. I’m still mothering you. I’m still yours. #everybutterfly To my circle of women — my sisters. Thank you for holding me when I couldn’t stand, wiping my tears, taking me to appointments, and making me laugh. You were God’s hands in my life for years. To my family…thank you for loving me so unconditional. Please take care of one another — my love is still wrapped around you. And to @lovesongphotography —the best photographer on the planet… thank you for capturing my life so beautifully year after year. No more Photoshop, sis — Jesus just gave this girl wings! Be gentle with each other. Hold my children close. And remember: heaven isn’t as far away as it feels. I love you all. Always. — Criscilla ✨❤️

  2. Hey, it’s @lovesongphotography and I have an update per Criscilla. With the sun warm on her skin and her eyes closed, she sat in the glow of the sunset — the kind of light that makes you breathe deeper. In that quiet moment, she let herself feel it all… the weight of a terminal diagnosis, the questions about what comes next, and the hope she refuses to release. Criscilla is the strongest human I’ve ever met. And as one of my closest friends, I say that with full conviction. Seven years ago she was given two years to live. Here we are, five years past that prognosis, and she’s still fighting with a grit and grace that humbles us all. Nine days ago she was admitted for cancerous fluid around her heart and a stroke. The night before, her legs went numb. Earlier this week she underwent surgery to drain that fluid — relief that also revealed how much her body has been carrying in silence. This weekend she finally gets to go home. Today an MRI of the brain was done to see if her symptoms were from a stroke or if the cancer had spread… and with heavy hearts, we learned it is in fact cancer. But before anyone spirals — this mama is NOT giving up. She plans to move forward with radiation, possibly chemo, and is actively exploring trials that specialize in colon cancer research. This is not the end of her story. She is leaning into the unknown and trusting God’s promises with a courage that’s hard to describe. She wants to live. She wants to fight. And she’s holding tight to every prayer and every miracle still possible. We are speaking life into her, and I ask that you do nothing less. Cover this mama in hope. She knows the risks, and she’s willing to face every single one of them for more time with her babies. That is who she is — a protector, a warrior, and a mama who will walk through fire for her children. To her village of mamas holding her up every day — thank you. And to her online community lifting her in prayer and searching for answers right alongside her — wow. Your love has become part of her armor. Tomorrow, my friends… is a new day. - Lindsey
