ASHLEE + JON : HAWAII WEDDING – LAIE

It has been a busy wedding season here in Hawaii. I have wanted to post more but time is scarce. Here are a few shots from Ashlee and Jon’s wedding at the Laie Hawaii Temple. They were married in the Laie temple and then had a ring ceremony afterwards on the grounds. The first few images are from Laie Point, I shot those with an off camera flash as it was the middle of the day and the sun was harsh. I love how Ashlee’s dress blew in the wind. We finished up at a beautiful beach in Hau’ula. Congratulations Ashlee and Jon!

DEETTE & SCOTT : HAWAII WEDDING – NORTH SHORE OAHU

DeEtte and Scott brought their family to the North Shore of Oahu for their Hawaii wedding. It was a beautiful evening to have a wedding on the beach. I loved DeEtte’s wedding dress, it was simple, beautiful and elegant. It was perfect for a beach wedding in Hawaii. After the wedding ceremony we had time to get some fun family pictures with that last 1/2 hour of sunlight on the north shore.

DANA & JAKE : NORTH SHORE HAWAII “TRASH THE DRESS SESSION”

Being a wedding photographer here in Hawaii I deal with a lot of different variables, especially when it comes to getting in the water for a trash the dress session. Being on an island we are often at the mercy of the wind, sun, waves, and all different elements. Dana and Jake’s “Trash the Dress session” almost didn’t happen. Jake sliced his foot open before their wedding and almost didn’t make it to the ceremony after spending most of the morning in the ER. The doctor told Jake to stay out of the water. A friend let us borrow the big blue boot to keep Jake’s foot dry, as seen below. Busted up foot or not Dana and Jake did a great job hiking over the coral on the North Shore, and getting in the water. The waves were a little big that day but we were able to find a safe location to get into the water. My two favorite pictures of this shoot are the 4th photo were Dana is running, and the last one. I think she looks so peaceful as she is gliding through the water.

TRACI & ADAM : WAIMEA FALLS WEDDING – NORTH SHORE HAWAII

Traci and Adam had their destination wedding at Waimea Falls located on the North Shore of Oahu Hawaii. This is an amazingly beautiful place to get married. You are surrounded by a lush tropical forest and across the street is Waimea Bay that has a long sandy beach.

I really had a great time photographing Traci and Adams Wedding. All the bridesmaids and groomsmen were a lot of fun to be around. I was really impressed on how their wedding was so centered on their faith. I thought it was cool that the first thing they wanted to do as a married couple was to take communion. Congratulations Traci and Adam.

They are a fun couple, and Waimea Vally is a beautiful place to get married, I think this is going to be an amazing wedding.

MEGHAN & MIKE : SUNSET BEACH WEDDING – NORTH SHORE OAHU HAWAII

This was an incredible backyard wedding at Sunset Beach on the North Shore of Hawaii. Besides the stunning style of the couple and her awesome dress, I could really see a ton of happiness in this group- I think you’ll see that in the pictures, everyone had huge smiles and all of that joy and energy made choosing which pictures to post challenging. Meghan and Mike had about 50 people come from the mainland to Hawaii for their destination wedding. Congratulations Meghan and Mike, and thank you for having me photograph your wedding, it was an honor.

REGAN & CRAIG : TURTLE BAY WEDDING – NORTH SHORE OAHU HAWAII

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.

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.

FULMERS : HAWAII FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY – NORTH SHORE OAHU

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.

JOSH & SHARLIE : HAWAII WEDDING OAHU

This was the last wedding that I photographed at the Laie Temple before it closed for a year to be renovated. The night before their wedding there was an island wide power outage and it was rainy. Umbrella’s seem to add a fun touch to wedding pictures though. Sharlie and Josh had a beautiful wedding and it was great fun working with them. Congratulations!
