Wylie in Hawaii // Big Island Family Photographer
Monday, 04 May 2015 20:04If you are a regular reader of this blog (all three of you!) you might recognize Julie and Andy from when I photographed them before here, they are also prominently displayed through out my editorial website. On top of being a muse of sorts for me, these two are great friends who we miss dearly here in Hawaii. They flew over to the Big Island for work recently and introduced us to their newest muse, Señor Wylie. Isn't he just adorable? I want to snuggle him up to pieces. Congratulations to our buddies on making such a handsome and sweet bebe.
