The JW Marriott Ihilani is under major renovation. One of my favorite wedding locations located behind the JW Marriott is temporarily closed. The location is known as “Secret Beach” by many wedding companies. I routinely called it “Anianikou” or sometimes “Lanikuhonua” as that’s what it was known by the locals. […]
Chappie can be best described as Johnny-Five 2.0. If you have no idea who Johnny-Five is, he’s the living robot from the infamous movie called Short Circuit. On a side-note, if you have no idea who Johnny-Five is, that means I’m showing my age. There have been many movies […]
A lot of people make the mistake that because I used to be a screenwriter, and because I am very critical of storytelling, that I prefer to see serious “deep thinking” movies. Nothing could be farther from the truth. I love comedies. In fact, I love what many people […]
To me, personally, this is probably the least exciting page on my website, but I had to create it to let everyone know that YES, MY COMPANY DOES PERFORM SAME-SEX WEDDINGS! There are no special packages, discounts, or up-charges for same-sex weddings. Everyone pays the same price here! So […]
There are weddings singers, then there is Maroon 5. Can you imagine having them play at your wedding? And can you imagine them playing for free? Well, for the lucky few, that dream became a reality when the band crashed their wedding to promote their new song, and to […]
Yes, it snows in Hawaii! But, don’t worry, it only snows on the high mountains of the Big Island, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa. The rest of Hawaii is snow free! 2015 started off very cold. Well, cold for locals like myself, normal for the rest of the world. […]
There’s no need to echo why this movie has made the news unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past month. Hot off the press, as of today (12/30/2015), the FBI may be considering evidence that those responsible for the Sony Hack may be disgruntled Ex-Sony employees, rather […]
Every year since I’ve been in business I’ve always gotten a boatload of inquiries in the days and weeks following Christmas and New Years. I have no scientific proof of why this rare phenomenon occurs, but I truly believe it has to do something the smell of Christmas trees, baked […]
2015 is right around the corner and I’m changing things slightly to keep up with the times. SWITCHING TO DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY As you may already know, I’ve been an advocate of film photography for decades. I’ve shot many of my weddings on film as I loved the look, the quality, […]
The second most common question I am asked is,”Steve, how long will our photos take to finish?” And my answer usually ranges from: a few hours, a few days, three weeks, twelve weeks, sometimes up to three to four months, it really depends…. Usually, under normal circumstances, meaning photos that […]
SO, I SLEPT ON MY SHOULDER WRONG....
And I'm having a rough time doing the keyboard thing at the moment. Which means, I can't reply to my emails as fast. I'll get to them, though. I promise.
Arm is at about 40% right now. Should be up and going soon!
Hey Steve, it’s Heather. You photographed my wedding on Aug 1. I have texted you several times and I called you twice to see if I can get a timeline on my photos and for you to send me the group picture so that I can send out my thank you cards this week. I’m getting worried that I haven’t heard back from you. Thanks
So, I live in Kaneohe. And I've always told all of my clients, I literal live in the caldera of a dormant volcano. Finally, someone created a graphic. What else is on Kaneohe? Ho'omaulahia (The Botanical Gardens).
When you do come to Hawaii, I definitely believe you should visit Kaneohe, head to Ho'omaulahia. It's truly a beautiful place.
