trash the dress Hawaii

 

How delightful it is going to Kauai whether for perfect surf or shooting an amazing destination wedding like this one with Lindsay & Nico coming all the way from Florida. They were such an adventurous and fun couple who I really enjoyed spending time with. First we started off by going to a private waterfall for the ceremony with their families. After a few shots on a nearby beach we drove to Poipu were they  jumped off the rock at Shipwreck beach and trashed the dress, there is a little GoPro Hero clip at the bottom of the post.  After some underwater photos we watched an amazing Kauai sunset. Congratulations Lindsay and Nico!Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii waterfall  wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding Hawaii Destination wedding shipwreck beach Kauai trash the dress Hawaii trash the dress Hawaii trash the dress Hawaii trash the dress Hawaii trash the dress Hawaii

 

MAUI HAWAII WEDDING : MARIE + RENNARD – OLOWALU PLANTATION HOUSE

Maui Wedding

 

A little over a year ago I met Marie and Rennard, they had me photograph their engagement pictures when they were here on Oahu.  They were a really fun couple to work with, so I was so excited a few months after when they had asked if I could be their photographer for their wedding on Maui at the Olowalu Plantation House.  Amazing location, maybe one of the most beautiful wedding venues I have seen in Hawaii.  Their wedding was nothing sort of perfect, from the DJ to the Shaved Ice Truck, and all the amazing family and friend that came all the way to Maui for this destination wedding. Congratulation Marie & Rennard!!Hawaii wedding dress Wedding photography Hawaii Wedding photography Hawaii Wedding photography Hawaii Wedding photography Hawaii

Hawaii Wedding Photography

I had so much fun photographing  Marissa & Sean’s wedding.  It took place at two of the most beautiful wedding venues on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii.  The wedding ceremony was at the upper meadow in Waimea Valley and the wedding reception was located at Dillingham Ranch.  There are so many amazing locations to take photographs at both venues and all along the North Shore.  I loved  the decor at the reception, it was all designed by Marissa her self.  Congratulations Marissa and Sean!Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photography Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer Hawaii Wedding Photographer

Here are a few photos of Max & Mona’s wedding at the Laie Hawaii Temple. It was an amazing day, Max’s family mostly from Laie and Mona’s travailing all the way from New Zealand. After the temple I took the bride and groom to Laie bay and Gun Stock Ranch to take some more photos. The receptions was amazing, the family really came together to create a beautiful and fun gathering.  My favorite was the vintage VW van. Congratulations Max & Mona!!

HAWAII WEDDING & ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY ACTIVITIES

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?

EMILY + JASON : HAWAII WEDDING – KEANA POINT

What an amazing day. Emily and Jason were married on the beach at Keana Point. It was so beautiful, long stretches of white sandy beaches.  After the ceremony we headed to Dillingham Ranch were Emily keeps her horse.  They also had the reception at a house on the hillside of the Ranch where there was a stunning view of the whole North Shore.  To finish the night off they brought out some sparklers, and we were able to get some great shots using long exposure photography.  Congratulations Emily and Jason.

I had a great time photographing Candice and Sam’s wedding.  They came all the way from New Zealand with their families for an intimate destination wedding here in Hawaii. It was a beautiful day to have a wedding on the white sandy beaches of Waimanalo. It turned out to be an amazing day, we even had time hike down to a remote cove to trash the dress.  Congratulations Candice and Sam!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

KATIE + NIC : ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY – CHINAMAN’S HAT HAWAII

Wow, where to start.  Katie contacted me about doing engagement photos and mentioned that she and Nic are scuba divers.  My mind started going crazy with ideas.  I had been to Chinaman’s hat the week before and knew I wanted to do a shoot there and after talking with Katie I knew this was the couple.  I also rounded up some vintage scuba gear, you can see the double hose regulator below.  Thanks Katie and Nic for being so adventurous because it made for a really fun photo shoot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TURTLE BAY WEDDING : KRISTEN + ALLEN – HAWAII PHOTOGRAPHY

Kristen and Allen had an amazing destination wedding at the Turtle Bay resort pavilion located on the north shore of O`ahu Hawai`i.  The evening was perfect.  We were able to get some fantastic wedding pictures on the beach as well as the reef.  I also loved the arch that was made by North Shore Weddings and Flowers.  The stunning colors of the flowers were on the arch as well as the table centerpieces.  The wedding was peaceful and beautiful, congratulations Kristen and Allen!

MARINA & LYOSHA : FROM MOSCOW TO HAWAII – DESTINATION WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

 

I had a fantastic time photographing Marina and Lyosha from Moscow, Russia.  They booked me for a four hour session giving us plenty of time to get a variety of wedding shots and also time to get some candid photos in the water. Marina and Lyosha were the 5th couple I photographed from Russia this year!  Very cool.  We spent our time on the North Shore of Oahu and here is a sampling of what we got.
