Gin GIn and Ryan were Wed at the Hale Koa Hotel on the edge of Waikiki which offers a beautiful garden setting. Gin Gin had family visiting from the Philippines making part family reunion. Alice Inoue performed the ceremony, she’s always inspiring to hear. Ali and I had fun and were blessed to be part of Gin Gin and Ryan’s special day.

Ryan was pretty relaxed for a groom!

Hale Koa Hotel

a special moment with father and daughter.

I always love the first dance.

Sometimes I’ll be asked to go out to the rehearsal which is a fantastic opportunity to meet the bridal party and family members. This way I’m not just the obnoxious photographer showing up the day of the wedding with a camera pointed in everyones face.

because practice makes perfect!
