Photo Journal | Surfing Alao

Dec 15, 2019Lifestyle

A little photo journal from the same day as Meagan and Hideyo’s maternity session.

We were out on the east side, and the reason we had to finish our photo shoot so quickly was because the boys were itching to go surf.

High tide was about 3pm, so we left the waterfall right at 2pm so they could grab their boards and catch waves in Alao.

Meagan and I hung back at her house and ate some delicious lunch that she and Hideyo had lovingly cooked up for us, and then we joined the guys at the beach until sunset where I snapped these pics.
