Traci and Chad: Hawaii Beach Wedding, a Preview
Tammy and Jeff: An Engagement Portrait in Downtown Honolulu
“We’re not really good at getting our picture taken” Tammy tells me. Then she immediately launches into dancing, frolicking and general hamming for the camera while Jeff looks on with a kind of quizzical adoration. Needless to say, they did just fine…








Tammy + Jeff: An Engagement Favorite
I can’t wait to shoot Tammy and Jeff’s wedding next month at Loulu Palms with Hawaiian Island Wedding Planners. They are such a fantastic couple – full of energy and personality!

Diane and Michael – A Wedding in Kaneohe, Hawaii
“Just pretend I’m not even here.” I said. Words that I often say when I shoot the bride and groom. But this time, Diane turns to look at me, “Pretend you aren’t here?” “Yeah just enjoy each other and forget about me.” I say off-handedly. So turning to Michael, she says tentatively “will you sing?” He takes his new bride in his arms, under a blue sky and swaying palms, high school sweet hearts parted once but now found for eternity, they dance, and he sings to her.
