North Carolina, Hawaii & Worldwide destination Wedding photographer

I love my referrals! You just never know where they’re going to come from. I received two messages from FaceBook a while back from friends looking for a photographer for a friend of a friend from L.A. I was super stoked to have gotten the chance to fly over to Maui (my favorite island) to […]

Kendall & I met up with Kim & Greg over at Makapu’u for the nuptials, it was a gorgeous Thursday afternoon with the sun beaming over the mountains. We pick a spot close to the water on the rocks which set the scene for their Hawaii wedding. Kalona served as their officiant starting off by […]

I was lucky to be part of a group of photographers to photograph a hula halau on Maui at sunset. The westside of Maui called Kaanapali is the perfect setting for any type of sunset photo shoot, wether you’re going to have a portrait, engagement or wedding portraits on the beach the view is spectacular.

I love photographing at Waimanalo Bay Park. They water is always a beautiful azure blue, the clouds in the sky always offer a beautiful canvas as a back drop, then you have the mountains off into the distance to complete the surroundings. Lisa & Shawn traveled in from California with their family and friends to […]

It was a beautiful afternoon on the North Shore of Kauai when I met up with Carolyn and Chris for their family session. We have fun running around the beach playing with their two girls and think we captured some great moments that they’ll remember their trip. Since they love the outdoors and Chris proposed […]

A few weeks ago my friend Bruce and his wife Yaling from hawaii-aloha.com invited me out to see Makena’s show at the Royal Hawaii Hotel (aka the Pink Palace) in the newly renovated Monarch Room. It’s part of the “Curators of Hawaiian Music” series. It was a fabulous live show that brought you through the history of […]

I posted a few weeks back about the expense of hiring a photographer, well the pay of is clients who are willing to make the trek up to where you suggest! I have now been told by my good friend David Rosen the this fall is actually named after who cut the trail. I should […]
