No Keia La, No Keia Po, A Mau Loa
From this day, from this night, forever more.
~ Hawaiian Proverb
I love weddings. Family and friends coming together to celebrate not only your love, but the beginning of your family – your Ohana.
Ohana – the Hawaiian word for family, guides everything I do.
In 50 or even 100 years, I hope that a grandchild of one of my couples will find an old printed wedding photo that I took decades earlier and get a glimpse of a beautiful moment in their family’s history.
Your wedding day is the beginning of your own legacy and I can’t wait to photograph it…
Ohana...
Ohana means family – and so much more. It’s the people in your life who are bound together by genuine compassion, culture, loyalty and love for each other.
My Ohana – my family, my friends, my community – is the most important thing to me. I value their love, loyalty and support more than anything.
When I am trusted to photograph your family – your Ohana – I am truly honoured.
Mahalo...
Mahalo can simply mean thank you. But like Ohana, it’s true meaning is much deeper. It’s a spirit of gratitude, respect and even admiration.
Every day I am grateful for my family and my friends; and especially in these times, their health and happiness. I have a career that I am extremely passionate about and that almost every weekend I am trusted to document the beginning of a brand new family.
How important are these two words to me? Well, I have them tattooed on my arms – so everyday I, and the people around me, can see what is most important to me.

let’s get you comfortable in front of the camera
Engagement sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. We’ve found that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” time to take your photos.

THE HEART
behind the photos
The first time my dad saw my mom, he was so sure she was the one, he walked straight up to her and gave her a kiss. Was it forward? Yes. But it worked. It’s been 32 years and they’re still going strong.
My parents have always been a beautiful example of love, intimacy and marriage. And when my mom got sick, it wasn’t home decor or baked goods that my dad brought to the hospital, it was photos. Photos remind us of the strength, courage and hope that reside in all of us the way few other things can.
