I'm not sure if there is a image of Harriet Kawahinekipi. I believe photography arrived in Hawaii in the 1850s and Harriet died prior to that date. Or maybe 1840s. And potraits of royals were only reserved for those who affected Hawaiian history. Like the monarchs, the inner royal family, and the island governors.

I found a source that claimed she had a tombstone on Maui, that might be as close as we get.

Mason book Is a short blurb on John Meek the captain, (1791–1875) who might be notable enough for an article. also see Find-a-grave on Capt Meek and Find-a-grave on Meek Jr which claims Meek Jr. was born in 1848, but that I think is a grandson? He is claimed to be the first Hawaiian photographer, ironically! W Nowicki (talk) 19:14, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
