Suvi + Nilesh decided to have their Hawaii destination wedding on Kauai not only because it was a great in-between place for families to travel to but, for Kauai’s amazing backdrop. You can totally tell the love between them Nelish’s face lights up every time he’d look into his brides’ eyes. I asked how they […]

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 […]

I know that being a Hawaii Wedding photographer, people are always expecting outdoor, beach images with greenery and or big beautiful beaches but, I just can’t help myself to create a beautiful imagery of my brides whilst getting ready in hotel rooms. Wether my destination or local couples they usually wind up getting ready in […]

Traveling from Portland for their Hawaii Destination wedding, we finally met up with Dhina and Jacob over in Kailua.

The Groom… I love portrait time. It’s when the creativity flows and these are the images that you’ll want to have forever. I know that the guys dislike having their picture taken (more so than me) and so when it’s time for portrait session I usually joke around with them to get them to relax a […]

After coming back from Australia, I’m feeling a bit reinvigorated and inspired. Of course I’ll cover traditional-ish poses and coverage but, I’m always looking for “the shot”. 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. […]
