Desert Sea Photography LLC A lover of light and capturing moments that bring joy. Published photographer based on Maui ( servin Hello ! I want to capture the real moments not posed shots.

My name is Gaylin, definitely a name that is not the easiest to find on a souvenir key chain. I am a mother to an energetic little boy , a wife to an amazing man , an avid adventure seeker, and a Netflix “ watch every season right now “ individual. I was born and raised in Orange County CA but took a trip to Maui in 2017 with my family and we fell so in love with this little island. We packed thr

ee suitcases, got our fur children cleared with quarantine , and moved to this beautiful island . I am a published natural light photographer who has been in the business since 2015. Capturing the love between couples and families is such a joy for me and I feel so blessed to be able to work with such amazing clients. I am based on the West Side of the island in Lahaina but am available for the entire island, neighbor islands, and most definitely am up for traveling. When you book a session my goal is for you to have FUN. We'll laugh, frolic around, dance , and overall just have a fabulous time !
