Kyle is on the varsity baseball team, he is the team catcher, he is all about Baseball and Academics which will take you far in life Kyle.Kyle has a lot of offers from various colleges and universities but his mom (lol) I mean HE has not chosen which one he will attend, but I'm sure his mom is whispering in his ear.

Monique and Julia.. East Hollywood High School.. Class of 2012

I love referrals.. It means they already like the way you shoot so a little bit of pressure is off.. I mean just a little..
Monique and Julia are friends with Sepa Tatafu, a senior on this blog. Thanks Sepa, your the best..
Monique and Julia attend East Hollywood High School, a charter school, which from what they tell is totally awesome and is emphasized on the different types film production and all types of arts and media.. (Yes I looked it up.. lol) Both girls are beautiful as you can see for yourself, but have uniquely different personalities, while shooting Monique (pink top) she kept smiling, and I kept giving her instructions on posing when she looked to her mom and smiled, "She makes me feel so beautiful", Monique that is all you girl with inner beauty that  matches your outward beauty you will rule the world.. I kid you not.
Julia (off white top) however was more shy with me, she kept laughing when I looked away and when I ask for a smile she would get all nervous, but when I would ask for a more serious look, she couldn't stop laughing, so I guess reverse psychology works with her.. lol.. She totally reminds me of the girl next door..
Both girls together are so much fun, they couldn't stop laughing..
Monique plans on going into nursing, while Julia plans on heading into a career of cosmetology. Wherever life takes the two of you I have a feeling you will meet it fearlessly and together..
Congratulations to the both of you on your upcoming Graduation..

The Kauvaka Kids..

Let me introduce to you the Kauvaka Kids.. The children of Leki and Rachelle Kauvaka. My heart is first with this family and always will be, I have known them since they were all babies and yes I even changed a few of their diapers.. lol.. That just waaay dated me.. lol.. My husband and I owe a lot to Leki and Rachelle taking us in when we were first married, infact our first sons'  middle name is Leki (Sitaleki to be exact) it would've been his first name but Leki came to the hospital insisting that we just put it in the middle. Leki and Rachelle you have raised strong children who stand on their own and you can  be proud of them, spending the afternoon with them they all had me laughing and making me realize WOW, they are great kids.. Rachelles' heart is now with her grandson, and Rachelle I see why? What a heart breaker, reminds me of his daddy.
The kids have been planning this for some time Rachelle, keeping a secret was the hard part.. Happy Mothers Day Rachelle, may your children spoil you rotten. You deserve it..
Thank you Leki and Rachelle for helping a poor couple just starting out. We will never forget you for that and we are always indebted to you, now that Davids 18yrs old and eating us out of house and home, would you like our first born.. lol.. Dont answer that Leki, because I know your saying YES.
Ofa lahi atu,
The Finau Family..
