Hawaii photographer
Meghan and Mike came from California for a destination wedding in Hawaii. A few days before their wedding we set out for a pre wedding surf session on the north shore. I had a lot of fun photographing Meghan and Mike in the water, they are both talented surfers. Check back in a day or so to see photos from their wedding, it was an amazing wedding to photograph.
Regan and Craig flew their familys out all the way from Australia for their Hawaii wedding. I shoot a lot of weddings at Turtle bay on the North Shore, but this is the first time the ceremony was on the beach by the stables. It was nice a quaint, and perfect for a wedding on the beach. I had a great time photographing Regan Craig and their families, Aussies really know how to have a good time.
I had a great time photographing Silvia & Matt’s destination wedding at the Royal Kona Resort, located on the ocean in Kona Hawaii. Silvia’s family came all the way from Germany, it was so fun the have the European vibe there and they had so much style. You can just tell from the wedding dress Silvia chose. This is the first time photographing a wedding at the Royal Kona Resort. Its a great location for a wedding in Kona and the sunset was amazing.
After being married 7 years Dave surprised his wife on their anniversary with a fun morning at the beach on the North Shore, and a family photo shoot that evening. I had a great time documenting their kayaking and cruising on the stand up paddle board (SUP). I posted one of the pictures a few weeks back here. I met them back on the North Shore later that evening for family pictures on the beach. The light was perfect and we scored a beautiful Hawaii sunset.
I photographed Josh & Lynne and the cool thing about it was that their wedding was on Waimea Bay beach. The state doesn’t give out many permits for Waimea beach weddings, but this couple got one. We had a lot of fun shooting at Shark’s Cove and Ke Iki beaches too. They were glowing and having a genuinely good time with each other. How fun to be married with sand and surf at your feet, wind in your hair, sun on your face, and palm trees all around.
Some of you may remember when I shoot Pat and Carrie’s post Wedding party on the point in Laie. I guess there were a few other people with cameras. Carrie’s sister in-law sent me this pictures of me shooting them. And below that is the picture I was taking. I would have to say I feel much more comfortable being on the back side of the camera than in front. To see the older post of Pat and Carries’s Cake & Skate wedding pics, click here.
Wow it has been a long time since I have had a chance to sit down and blog. This last month has been crazy and I will be posing a lot of my recent work in this next few week plus a photo tip or two. But first I wanted to get these wedding pictures of Melissa and Matt up. I had a great time shooting with them, we went all over the North Shore of Oahu, and scored a beautiful sunset.
I went to Northern California to capture this beautiful couple sealing the deal. Becky looked stunning in her wedding gown and Doug cleaned up nice in a dapper suit and slippah’s. These shots are from the two days that I spent with them, getting some of the pre-wedding family fun. We got up at 5 am to get the preparation shots- Becky had to get up early to get ready and make it to the Sacramento temple for the morning sealing. I had a great time, these two families really know how to put a party together. I even got to do some water shots in a chilly California river. Northern California has plenty of spectacular back drops. See for yourself below:

A little peek into Becky and Doug’s wedding that I shot in Northern California. More Pics coming soon.

Jaynie and Derek are a super chic and hip young couple. The beautiful pair is from Los Angeles, CA and decided to tie the knot here in beautiful Hawaii, and at the Loulu Palm Estate, which is a beautiful all-inclusive wedding locale situated on the North Shore of Oahu. I had a great time shooting this young and cool couple. I have to say that this wedding was very, very fun, and it definitely shows in the photographs. Congratulations to Jaynie and Derek. Enjoy your new life adventures!
This is the song that the grooms men rolled in on, this wedding had a lot of soul.
Sam and Verdi are both from Taiwan and while visitinging beautiful Oahu, Hawaii on a business/vacation trip, they opted to take their pre-wedding photographs . These photos were taken at Sunset Beach Point, located on the North Shore of Oahu. This couple was completely enamored with one another as is obvious in their photographs. Congratulations to this beautiful couple and on venturing into a new life together!

I had an amazing time photographing this beautiful couple: Tracy and Andrew. It was really cool watching two different families from the opposite sides of the world join together into one complete family. Tracy and her family are from Canada, and Andrew and his family are from Australia. This wedding was located at the Loulu Palm Estate, located on the North Shore of Oahu, and it was a fantastic venue for a wedding ceremony and reception. They include all the amenities one could want for an amazingly beautiful wedding, including a secluded private beach. One of the perks of being a wedding photographer is that I have the opportunity to eat many different types of delicious food at beautiful receptions, and the caterer from this wedding was unbelievable. The food was amazing. Congratulations to the happy couple! And thank you for the opportunity of being apart of your wedding. It was beautiful.
