Our image of the week comes via Kauai… It was a beautiful but gusty day when we headed over to Kauai for Suvi + Nelish’s wedding day. They had a late afternoon ceremony ending around the time the sun was setting when we captured this tender between our newly married couple.   Jeannemarie is a […]

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I love the North Shore of Oahu simply that it has less people and of course the gorgeous sunsets, I recommended we head up to Ke’iki Beach. It was a beautiful day and their ceremony performed including communion. I loved the simplicity of not […]

Traveling from Portland for their Hawaii Destination wedding, we finally met up with Dhina and Jacob over in Kailua. Kailua is a wonderful little area of our island where the beaches tend to be calm most of the time and the water is perfect for swimming and kayaking. It’s also where our President has been […]

Marie + Cedric were married 10 years ago in Montreal and they are just as much in love today as when they were first married.

It’s that one epic image that to me defines the day. Carla + Ian were up just for that this fine day at the famed Waimea Bay beach. […]

I photograph many Destination weddings here in Honolulu. I mean come on, Hawaii is one of the most beautiful places on Earth to be. So, to me, it’s not surprising that Hawaii is one of the top destinations to get married. Most people choose to do so here right on Oahu since Oahu is known […]

Fresh back from WPPI in Las Vegas. I was reinvigorated and inspired by what I heard and what I saw. From last nights wedding, there was no real sunset as the Kona winds moved on to Oahu. Kona Winds is when the winds shift direction usually coming in from the east and the come in […]

Who would have thought that Pantone is in charge of choosing a color that defines the year? When I used to work in the fashion industry, this decision heavily dictated the color trends for designers everywhere. Nowadays, the wedding industry has definitely taken a cue.
