During the ceremony Just a Little Hawaii Magic Happening Here Bryan and Veronica tied the knot at a small cove situated behind the JW Marriott Hotel on the West Shore. The cove is free to use, and not property of the hotel or the resort. I do about 50% […]
Here’s a shot I haven’t done in awhile. The abandoned building on the North Shore JARED AND SHERRIE Jared and Sherrie both admit they hate to have their photos taken. Why? I am not sure, because both photograph really well. Sherrie customized her own wedding package with me, opting for […]

KAYLA’S WEDDING! This one was a new one for me! Two years ago, our company married Tracy, Kayla’s mother. At the conclusion of Tracy’s wedding, a planned surprise proposal by Dustin took place. Because everyone was in on the surprise, other than Kayla, we were able to videotape the proposal […]
Affordable Hawaii Wedding Packages, great photo and video services, easy and fun planning
This is probably the 1st bride that get her make-up and hair done in my house. She's the fiance of my good friend, and they were staying here for a week.
I have to say, my bay windows work out really well for the stylist.
Wow, love your floors!
Love the floors bro
Just posting to post :) Hope everyone is having an awesome day! It's starting to rain today! I heard it's going to rain for the week - EVERYWHERE! HARD!
Say you had a wedding this week. What would your options be? Well, if you're eloping, or your wedding party is small enough, you could move the location of your wedding to a portion of the island that is a lot more dry. So, that means for this week - anything west. If your wedding is rather large, and you can't move venues, renting a huge tent would be an option. For those of you who booked Kualoa, tenting could be an option - or, and I've done this before, you could move to an indoor wedding venue in Kualoa. The best place on Kualoa, one of the old Jurassic Park sets! Remember the 1st Jurassic Park? The lab? The HQ? They actually rent that out!
One of my couples was really worried about the rain. And then, it poured—cats, dogs, and elephants. The original plan called for my clients to get married on Pupukea Beach, but the rain threw a wrench in that. Instead, they opted to get married back at their vacation rental, even though the owner didn't want that. The vacation owner actually had cameras installed around the premises to make sure they wouldn't have a wedding on their property!
Well, I'm all for breaking the rules. We identified the cameras, and everyone snuck in as though they were robbing a bank. Then we had their wedding in an area where there were no cams.
When it rains this bad, I offer all of my couples a free photoshoot before they leave the islands. After all, I want them all to have the opportunity to get great photos. I think I'm the only company that does this. To my surprise, this couple passed on that offer! They said, "Steve, this is our story! We loved dancing in the rain! It was awesome!"
So, what truly is the best plan for your wedding if it rains?
To have fun. Have fun no matter what happens. It'll be awesome.
Well, as you may already know, I've started up a BBQ company! Sooooo - if you want any delicious BBQ for your wedding rehearsal or reception, let me know!
We smoke all on Keawe wood, which is a species of mesquite wood. It's sweeter, not as harsh. The best way to describe our creations is that it's Texas inspired, but we are not as peppery. Plus, we bring a little Hawaiian flare to the way we do things (which I can't tell you because it's a trade secret, lol)
Also, yes, these are real pictures. Since I'm a photographer, I know how to shoot - well, anything. Apparently, not only can I make couples look their best, but smoked meat as well! haha
Mmmmmmmm
Probably some of the most impressive make-up I’ve seen in the past 20 years I’ve been doing this.
