Kimi and Kai are misplaced Hawaiians living in California. They both returned to their beloved island home for their much awaited wedding day. Their ceremony was held at the Kamehameha School's chapel. All details were lovely, many hands made work light. Stunning flowers from Terri Easley Designs. Good food, good company of family and friends, beautiful ceremony and gorgeous reception venue at the Kualoa Ranch http://www.kualoa.com.

This is just a quick sneak peek of their happy day. See their slideshow by clicking on the play button and wait for the upload.

Arlene and Stewart -25th Wedding Renewal Hawaii Wedding Photographers

Okay, can I just say that WE LOVED being able to photograph this special day for Arlene and Stewart! Honestly, Curt and I talked about this beautiful couple and their 25th wedding renewal for days after. These two love-birds were so sweet and cute together. Giggling and tender exchanges with one another throughout the day. Arlene asked "Can you feel the love???" YES, we definitely did! The wedding renewal took place at the Sacred Hearts Parish in Honolulu, Hawaii while a delicious luncheon took place at the beautiful Luana Hills Country Club in Kailua. They have such awesome friends and family who were so kind to us. Watch this video and you can see just what I mean! Aloha, Ramona and Curt.

Feel free to leave them a comment, as they will be checking back soon for a sneak peek at their 25th anniversary wedding photos! Enjoy!

Kaua's 1st Taste of Poi


Our sweet little boy Kaua at 5 months old. We fed him poi for the first time as we do with all our children. He wasn't to sure about the taste and texture at first so his "sour" poi faces are so funny! It didn't take him long at all but he LOVES poi now!

Lynsey and William Engagement

Lynsey and William's engagement session was taken on the beautiful North Shore, at Shark's Cove (a favorite location of ours). I've posted a mix of edited (with watermark) and unedited SOOC (straight out of the camera.) Edited images are custom enhanced by hand in post-processing. This can be a time intensive process depending on what effect is to be achieved. We start off with great images to begin with and polish it off to make you and the final image looking SWEET! We're excited for L&W's upcoming wedding this May. Anyone can see that there are wonderful things for them just beyond the horizon.

Ashley (Hawaii Urban Photography)

This is my baby sister Ashley who was visiting us in January. I did a quick 15 minute mini-shoot with her just for fun. In post-processing I played around with different effects like boosting the colors, changing to sepia, black & white and funky color adjustments. I usually follow color adjustments with any skin retouching if needed but these photos are NOT retouched. Yep, I like how these turned out...but she's going to kill me for putting in that squishy face photo of her! Hey, it's just for fun! CLICK the PLAY button and allow the slide-show to upload.

January 1st, 2009. A SURPRISE PROPOSAL and Engagement session

I'm stoked to have been able to capture this surprise proposal on January 1st, 2009. Noah (who is also a photographer) called me up and told me of his way cool plan to surprise his girlfriend Becky with a proposal on North Shore of Oahu. I waited at the planned location and pretended to be shooting scenics. Noah's friend John was hiding out in the bushes with a video camera. When Noah got down on one knee and proposed to Becky she was totally surprised! What a way to start the new year! Woohoo! Congratulations Noah and Becky!
