Hawaii photographer
I was so stoked to spend time with Sandra & Ok on this life style shoot. They both work in advertising and came all the way from Taipei Taiwan. We spent most of the day on the North Shore getting different engagement and wedding style photos. Congratulations Sandra and Ok, good luck with the wedding.
It’s been awhile since my last post. Step back daily bloggers… my passion for photography has combined with providing people with incredible experiences, captured by my lens. Let me share with you some of the photo-tourism and destination wedding-photo-shoots that have kept me busy this year.
This year started off full of fun photo shoots with international clients from China, Singapore and Taiwan. I might need to brush up on some language skills!
I’ve begun collaborating with an amazing, boutique, vintage Hawaii, wedding venue here in the country. (That’s code for not crowded Waikiki.) The Wedding Cottage Hawaii. The idea was to offer brides and couples getting engaged with more than an ordinary photo shoot. Coming soon we are going to offer a variety of different outdoor activities that I can document for clients in an editorial – life style type of shoot. Some of the activities include beach cruising on the North Shore, Sunset Beach skate path, paddle boarding down a river, kayaking to small islands, horse back riding and cattle wrangling at Gunstock Ranch. If you’re not a surfer or a skater but want some fun outdoor experience photographed… we’ve got options. If you do want that skate or surf experience, talk to the Event Directors at The Wedding Cottage and they can customize this, along with their lodging options. We can document highlights of your vacation and you’ll go home with images and memories that you’ll never forget. Who wants to be next?
Photographing this engagement session reminded me in a big way how amazingly beautiful Hawaii is. I drive on this coastline everyday and while I like to think I don’t take it for granted, I can always appreciate it more. On this day the sky was bright with blue and the water was crystal clear. Definitely a fun session for this newly married couple, she just graduated from BYUH and he flew to Hawaii from Hong Kong after a very long separation from each other.
It definitely is feeling like summer time, and true to form, this last month a lot of my sessions have included water photography. It was a lot of fun capturing Ashlynne and Ben’s engagement photos before they headed back to the mainland. We started off the session at the Haleiwa bridge, and then headed to Pipeline on the North Shore where we did the underwater pictures. Congratulations Ashlynne and Ben.
Natalie and Aaron were a super cute couple to photograph. They met at BYU-Hawaii, both playing soccer. At the time of this shoot their engagement was on the downlow, but was made official after Natalie visited Aaron in England were Aaron is from. I think the yellow fish really wanted to be part of their shoot, it kept coming by and swimming around us, and at one time I think it even stared me down.
