ROB & KELLEY : BEACH WEDDING PROPOSAL, LAIE HAWAII

I’ve known Rob for over 10 years now.  We’re basically brothers.   I was so excited to hear he was asking the girl of his dreams to marry him.   A few hours before the big moment, he called and asked if I could hide out in some trees and capture his proposal on film.  He chose a beautiful beach in Laie to ask Kelley to marry him.  It was a beautiful day in Hawaii to get engaged.

  • About Hawaii Wedding Photography by Mark Holladay Lee

  • Aloha, I'm Mark Holladay Lee. I'm a husband, father, surfer and photographer. I didn't realize how much I would love being a professional photographer until I became a father while living in New York City. All the creative energy in that city combined with all the emotions of becoming a dad, lit up my passion with the camera. I was able to learn from some great photographers while living in the city, but my earliest learning with the art, goes back to childhood when I watched my mother work as a photographer. I remember how she crafted a darkroom in whatever house we lived in and decorated our home with pictures from our family travels. She gave me my first camera and first studio lights.

    Fast forward several years and here I am living in Hawaii with my family, enjoying every minute of combining my love of people with my love of creating art. I not only photograph people with studio lights, but I photograph in the ocean, from a helicopter, at the beach, in the mountains, and other incredible locations throughout Hawaii. I may sometimes act as a fly on the wall, documenting a moment as it naturally unfolds. Other times I may be actively posing a large group of people in a formal setting. Many times I am capturing life with my family, freezing memories that bring us so much joy to look back on. I would be honored to capture your memories with artistic images that I guarantee you will be thrilled with. I look forward to meeting you!
