Perfectly Planned Proposal
Jim reached out to me about planning his surprise proposal at the beautiful Four Seasons Lanai on the island of Lanai. We communicated mostly by text &(calls), but were able to get all the details nailed down & the day finally comes & I am positioned in the bushes high above where him and his long time girl friend Hannah are casually checking out the property. Exactly in the right spot, he dropped to a knee with a ring in hand & popped the question. She was completely surprised & you can see the moment when she realizes that I am photographing the important moments up in the bushes. Afterwards we explored the grounds of this amazing hotel & ended up on the beach for a terrific sunset. Enjoy the imagery!

Congrats to Sara & William tying the knot & celebrating with a honeymoon to Maui & finally getting the photos they had dreamed about. Both doctors working in a busy hospital overrun by covid they reported for work daily under the most difficult of circumstances and now even a year later they get to pop the bubbly and relax a little. Thank you both for your hard work this past year in saving lives and Congrats to getting married & honeymooning nowβ€οΈππ₯ππΌ

He asked & she said "YES"!
Congrats to Maddie & Charles who dined early @merrimansmaui & then went for a stroll where he dropped to a knee & asked that powerful question, "Will you marry me?" Afterwards we went out on the rocks to witness mother nature's wave show. Happy for these two lovers getting engaged!

Congrats to Temako & Earl who said their vows in a wild ceremony of gorgeous sun and blustery showers. Four separate times the rain came & went within a minute or two and no rain was going to dampen these twos big moment to confess their love to each other in front of their family and friends! What an amazing story these two have & I was so glad to be apart of it. Later @djront808 rocked the tunes & they rocked the dance floor!

"We must be FREE not because we CLAIM freedom, but because we PRACTICE it! ~William Faulkner
At the Makawao Rodeo yesterday, it started with the singing of the Star Spangled Banner. As it was sung I was reflecting about the seriousness of our division, of the gerrymandering and intentional push to subvert democracy by one party of our two party system and whether DEMOCRACY will survive past 2024
The consequences of this 2022 election are going to have far reaching effect in the 2024 elections.
The choices are very clear
Democracy or Autocracy
Choose wisely if we are to remain the United States of America and GO PRACTICE FREEDOM and VOTE

Congrats to all the cyclists racing up Haleakala last weekend. Was amazing witnessing all these riders give there all to make it to the top. The fastest rider climbed 10,023 feet in 3 hour 4 minutes with the last finishers summiting about 6 hours 30 minutes!
Probably my most favorite finisher was Angela who literally was crying as she crossed the line and the emotion of finishing was written all across her face. The important thing was that she persevered and met her goal of finishing. Congrats to everyone!π΄π»ββοΈππππΌ

Perhaps my biggest joy of getting to be a creative for a living, (other then being apart of the best moments of peoples lives) is the sheer JOY it brings to them when they see the images! Just the other day my clients from the Montage told me they cried tears of happiness when they say the images! I mean seriously this is what it is all about!
I am so humbled & grateful for all the other vendors who shine so brightly at what they do adding to the magic! Let me not forget all my amazing clients who have believed and trusted me to deliver the goods that they have dreamed about!
So excited for the coming year getting creative, delivering magic and making my clients cry tears of happiness!

Couple weeks back did a quick trip to Kauai for a corporate shoot. Was pretty socked in, but right at sunset the sky exploded in color for about five minutes then disappeared. The evening concluded with all the guests enjoyed dancing and then a ripping fire dance! π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π΄

Went to the mountain the other day with my family & sitting there watching this sunset unfold before our eyes literally took our breath away. This Timelapse just under 1200 images. π₯π₯π₯

Oh my goodness the cheers & screams of love and support for Borum & Will was deafening. So happy to have been apart of this sweet sweet wedding. Will and his family had been going to Lahaina Methodist Church for literally decades, so when the wedding bells rang of course it was going to be there. After this group pic, we made our way over to @oldlahainaluau where the celebration continued. Thanks for having me be a part of this super fun evening! β€οΈπ΄ππ₯
