Welcome to my Blog!

Welcome to my blog! My name is Lysandra I am the luckiest person I know. I live and work on the windward side of beautiful Oahu, Hawaii. I love what I do. I have a terrific family that appreciates my innate need to re-create the beauty around me in photographs. My clients and their most joyful, real moments are the primary source of that beauty - and our gorgeous Oahu scenery is the perfect backdrop. My style has been described as lush, romantic, vibrant, natural, relaxed, and carefree.

Although I am based on the windward side of Oahu, I love to travel! Just ask about service across Oahu, to the outer islands, or to the mainland.

I am a proud volunteer for Operation Love ReUnited, which serves our deployed military service members and their families. I believe in giving them something to which they can hold on, during a time of letting go. I am also a member of HeArts Speaks, which connects photographers with animal rescues.

Meet Banyan: Lysandra Cook Oahu Pet Photographer

This is Banyan, a sweet little pup I meet for a photo shoot in Lanikai. Banyan is such a little charmer. He really wanted to come up and lick me or my lens, it sure made things challenging but also tons of fun.

I found the easiest shots were when I was able to sneak up on him while he was sleeping.

Or while he was lounging in his bed.

Here I used my height to my advantage and just stood over him.

Here I think I confused him by meowing like a cat and oinking like a pig. It only worked for a second, about half a second after this shot he and his adorable tongue were all over my camera.
