Lei for Lahaina

Lei for Lahaina is an event for those who want to come and kōkua (help) the families affected by the deadly August wildfire in Lahaina through a mix of lei making, prayer, mele, and good food.

The combination of red and yellow in my culture has always symbolized strength - the tone I wanted this event to convey.

In ancient Hawaiian society, red and yellow were considered sacred colors associated with the gods and the royal kingdom.

Most of the images used for the event were either photos I took myself or old pictures I found in photo albums. I edited the images in Photoshop to highlight the love and strength symbolized by the red. I also applied a subtle glow effect to create a mature, nostalgic atmosphere.
