Wedding Photography

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 […]

Hawaii International Film Festival

Anyone who knows me, knows that I’m passionate about movies. I love a good story, drama and the action that a good film captures, as well as the perspectives that documentaries reveal to me. It’s really where I get a lot of my inspiration for my photography…the lighting, the drama, the action! This form of […]

Emerald ~ Color of the Year

wedding planning

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.

Her vision, she told me, was in a park with lots of greenery and in downtown Honolulu to have the contrast of nature and urban living. My suggestion was to head over to Chinatown where on a Saturday, is pretty quiet since it’s mostly a Monday – Friday hub. So with my trusty assistant Kelli to watch over traffic, we head to the middle of the road for this image.

engagements

One of the best ways I get to know my couples is to have a photo session before the wedding. Typically we call this an “Engagement” session since it happens before the wedding. It ‘s a great idea on many fronts and I’ll get into that in a later post…

Photographing weddings in Hawaii aren’t all about beaches and sand. Sometimes we get a destination bride who’d love to have some images taken at a different location and we’re ecstatic to oblige!

Wedding Photography

I love rings…I love jewelry! It’s one of my favorite detail images to capture. I’m not one to photograph them on your hands, I have an issue with chopped off body parts. It’s a rule I learned while attending School of Visual Arts years ago and still keep that rule in my back pocket. I […]

Let's make magic together.
