And now for something a little different...

...a photo of my scottie dog. Isn't she a happy camper. :o)

My First Cover

It is with much anticipation that I share some exciting news. Hawaiian Telcom selected one of my stock photographs to be the cover of their 2007-08 Oahu directories! I had originally submitted the photograph last year to a contest being sponsored by the Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau (which I did not win). But the Hawaiian Telcom folks saw it this past summer while browsing the images from the HVCB contest and decided to use it for their phonebooks. I would like to thank Hawaiian Telcom for selecting my photograph from the many others they saw, and it is a great honor to be featured on their phonebook.

Martinez + DeWolfe

Ana and Cheyne currently live in Texas, but decided to have their wedding in Hawaii which is where Cheyne grew up. Last month, they had a small and lighthearted ceremony in the late afternoon which was full of smiles and laughter. It was also on one of my favorite beaches (Waimanalo) on Oahu which provided a beautiful backdrop. Here are a few photographs to share...

Phillip asked, Lorajean said..."YES"!

Lorajean and Phillip are from California, but decided to have their engagement photographs done here in Hawaii. Thus last month I had the pleasure of being their photographer for a very romantic photo shoot on the beach. Be sure to tell them "Congrats!" if you see them.

These are some of the photos from the portrait session...don't they look cute together!?!

Tomoko + Darren

Tomoko and Darren were recently wed in a simple ceremony by a "justice of the peace". But they wanted to have photographs together as part of their wedding celebration to share with friends and family. They opted for more of an "engagement-style" photo shoot which we did at a garden and then a more urban (Chinatown) location. We had a blast shooting in the two very different settings!

Since the past couple of months have been very busy w/ bookings, I'm slowly catching up on my blog. I'm posting twice this week to make up for missing last week. =)

Wedding at Molii Gardens

Jared and Joni are a fun & energetic couple whose wedding I recently photographed. The weather on that part of the island can be a bit unpredictable, and it ended up pouring down with rain immediately after the outdoor ceremony. But the bride and groom did not care in the least and had a grand time anyway! These images are some of my favs from the day...enjoy!
