  • About Mae

    Mae Lu is a Canada-born, So-Cal-raised Asian American 30 Something, living a dream with her hubby & dog in the magical kingdom of Hawaii.

    This red-lipstick aficionado designs websites for a living and runs a fledgling lifestyle YouTube Channel in her spare time. On the weekends, if she's not filming, you can find her behind the lens of her Sony A6000, shooting scenery in Hawaii, hiking the hills and ridges of her beloved island home, or chasing the perfect sunset.

    Why "thereafterish."? Because "and they lived happily ever thereafter" is just half of every story, and this is mine.

After two months, finally got to see Sharon and The Pirate of EliSharon again. As is beginning to trend, we spent most of the time eating, drinking and laughing that outfit shots became an afterthought… a quick “Oh wait, we forgot to take pictures” before heading off our separate ways. And again, we laughed our way through a photo session. Thankfully we had some moments of composure to get halfway decent shots. All the while, The Bear watched the hijinks.

Miss you guys already!

Then Max the Bear tried his hand at Parkour, jumping on random benches, café tables and making adorable eyes at the camera, embracing the true, fearless Wheaten within (he’s been very timid these last four years). He’s finally coming out of his shell. Seeing as how he truly comes alive, breaks out of his somewhat anxious, enervated daily weariness whenever we drive into Hawaii Kai, we know he’ll be happier closer to town after we make our move, than he has been while in the rain forest. We will be, too.

Finally, a “Home Sweet Home” in Hawai‘i. It brings a tender warmth to my chest at the thought of it.

Honi, me ke aloha ~ xo, with love,
Mae
