The Rojas family reached out for a casual Maui photoshoot while visiting Maui from South and Central Texas. With seven adults and a baby on the way, it was a beautiful opportunity to capture three generations of love and connection against the stunning island backdrop. What started as a typical Maui family session turned into something special: a gender reveal for their first baby.
We met at a scenic location that combined Maui’s serene shoreline, dramatic waves, and cool lava rock formations. As the sun began to set, we captured candid moments of the family laughing, embracing, and enjoying the island breeze. The atmosphere was warm and full of love, the perfect reflection of their family values.
But Gus had one final request that made this session extra memorable. At the end of the shoot, he had arranged for a surprise gender reveal for their mothers. Our team brought a box filled with flower lei in either pink or blue, carefully sealed to keep the surprise until the end. With everyone gathered around, eyes closed in anticipation, I gave the countdown. When they opened their eyes, the reveal was met with shouts of joy and tears of happiness—blue flowers spilled out of the box. “IT’S A BOY!”
The family’s reaction was everything. Both grandmas celebrated with laughter and hugs, while siblings cheered for the new addition on the way. It was a heartwarming moment that added even more depth to their family vacation.
Congratulations to the Rojas family on their growing ohana. Here’s to a lifetime of love, laughter, and new adventures! 💙
