PERSONAL BRANDING FOR LEILANI KIDWELL / MAILE KITCHEN

Leilani is carrying on her heritage while forging something new, to offer both her home and community. There is something so meaningful about a simple gathering around a table, and with Leilani's seasonal and thoughtful approach, those gatherings become even more intentional. It was such a joy spending an afternoon with her and her family, creating together, laughing together, and hearing more of her story. I cannot wait to see where this new endeavor takes her!

My amazing neighbor, Gali, offered her beautiful kitchen for us to shoot in. Funny enough, in true Florida fashion, it was down pouring during our session, so I had to finagle some artificial light to pull it off. I shoot primarily in natural light and do not like branching off from there, but sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures. I think we pulled it off pretty well!

After capturing branding content for Leilani in Gali's kitchen, we drove about 30 minutes up the road to my favorite wildflower spot for family photos. The rain cleared up in time, leaving us with the perfect about of cloud cover. It was magic.
