E Welina Mai

Aloha nō! My name is Hananiah (Noʻeau) Sataraka, born and raised on the island of Oʻahu, I come from what people consider to be paradise but what I think of simply being home. Living on a small island, there is not a lot to do but everything to do at the same time, some of my pastimes include, photography (obviously), anything in the outdoors (more specifically in the ocean), learning, and watching anything that has a story. 

The Pursuit of Portraits

From a very young age, the arts was something I had always been in love with. The freedom of expressing who you are, sometimes without using any words at all is something I have always been captivated by. This path eventually brought me to discovering photography in high school. Continuing my love in college, I still continue a passion.

Since then, I have been in love with capturing the beauty in the moments in between.
