Maybe you’re here because you’ve already seen my photography work.
Or maybe you’re here because you’re looking for something more:
a story to tell, a memory to keep, or a new way to see what you live every day.
Take The Moment Home was born from this — from the idea of bringing home not just a photo, but an entire emotion.
For me, photography isn’t just about creating images.
It’s about creating connection.
If you already know me as Kohana Soul Photography, you know that my work is rooted in authenticity, comfort, and care.
With this project, I want to take a step further:
to help you turn a moment into something that stays with you, something that speaks about you, and something you can come back to again and again.
You don’t need to be “perfect.”
You just need to be present.
That’s how a photograph that truly moves you is born.

My approach
Live it.
Take the moment with you.
The story you imagine — and the one you are creating — takes shape when you truly start living it.
That is the moment when photography becomes more than an image: it becomes memory, emotion, presence.
Every photograph is a way to hold on to what matters,
not to keep it still, but to remind you that you were there,
that you felt it.
I believe that moments speak on their own.
They tell your story, your growth, what you are building.
And the most beautiful part is this:
you don’t need to force anything.
Real moments appear naturally
when you are authentic,
when you give yourself room to breathe,
when you allow yourself to be seen.
This is the heart of Take The Moment Home:
creating something that stays — quietly, deeply, truly.
THE STORY BEHIND THE PROJECT.
As a photographer working in beautiful destinations, I realized that many guests wished they had professional photos of themselves, their family, or their trip — but didn’t know who to call, or didn’t want a long, complicated photoshoot.
So I created a service that fits naturally into your holiday:
easy, elegant, fast, and unforgettable.
THE PHILOSOPHY.
I focus on capturing:
real emotions
natural interactions
the beauty of the place you're staying
the essence of your experience
This is not a staged photoshoot — it’s a moment to slow down and feel present.
