⊰⊹※⊹⊱Spirit of the Aina⊰⊹※⊹⊱











Back in June, my sis Tracy from Prism of Threads came to Kauai for a few weeks.   She brought with her some of her  amazing painted silk dresses.  A perfect opportunity for me to pull out my camera.  Most of my early twenties were spent in the dark room.  I thought for sure I had discovered my hearts calling being behind the lens.  After moving to NY to work as a photographer,  I got lost in the rat race and so did my photography.  I am grateful to have this tool under my belt and I am having an amazing time re exploring this beautiful art.  Naia chose to be a little wild flower that day so I had her on my breast in one hand and a camera in the other.  Phew! Aloha!

All of these gorgeous painted silk dresses are  available at Prism of Threads.

Thank you!! Tracy and I always have so much fun creating together! Love you T!! I used a canon 5D to shoot these... And even an iPhone for one! Can't tell a difference! These dresses were so perfect here on Kauai because they are like Hawaiian mumus in way but more flattering!! 2012 mumus!
