Lea and Alax’s wedding was nothing short of exquisite. It was a beautiful day on Dillingham Ranch. The venue was decorated with beautiful flowers and the palm trees in the background helped create beautiful pictures. The couple and the guests were energetic which made it easy to have tons of fun. Everything about this wedding was beautiful! Congratulations Lea and Alax!
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!
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!!
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.
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!
i loved photographing this local wedding. The incredible food, entertainment, and all the friends and family create the kind of atmosphere that makes Hawaii so special. Leiau and Lance had an amazing wedding on the beach just outside of Laie, and after headed over to Kualoa Ranch for the reception. The following Monday, Leiau decided to jump off Laie point in her wedding dress. It was the perfect day with light winds and calm seas. Congratulations Leiau and Lance! 
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!!
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?
Another amazing wedding on the North Shore at Loulu Palm Estate. This is truly one of the most beautiful places to have your wedding ceremony and reception in the same location. Melanie and Billy had friends and family travel to Hawaii for their destination wedding, from as far away as New York City. It was a fun crowd and there were 4 or 5 of their friends shooting with film cameras. It made me wish I had brought mine. I can’t wait to see their film photos. Congratulations Melanie and Billy.

I photographed Silvia and Matt’s destination wedding last year on the big island of Hawaii, you can see their wedding pictures here. Stunning bride and groom. I was so excited when they contacted me about doing a trash the dress session in the ocean. Both of them were fantastic in the water, and I love the way Silvia’s wedding dress flowed in the water for these dream like shots.
Tanya and Adam were married at Sunset Ranch overlooking the North Shore of Oahu Hawaii. This is a stunning place to host a large wedding. The view of the sun setting was incredible, and the food and decorations were excellent. I photographed Tanya and Adam’s engagement pictures a few months back, they even did a few underwater shots, you can see those here. Congratulations to this beautiful couple- Tanya and Adam!
Kumiko and Michael flew all the way from Japan for a Hawaii destination wedding here in Honolulu. It was fun to see the two families come together. Kumiko’s family spoke a little English and Michael’s family spoke a little Japanese. The ceremony location was beautiful with Diamond Head in the background. Congratulations Kumiko and Michael.
