Hello All!
It’s been a while! Busy as usual but so glad we were able to drop in and post about a recent session.
We were able to work with Kawai on her senior portrait session. We had a fun time, and it was quite a contrast working with her because up until this point, we did sessions with her brother Suggy for his fighter portraits. Nonetheless, we had a fun time and loved working with her. Have a quick look at our session & enjoy!
Hello All!
2020 and 2021 have been rough for the graduating seniors. We are glad to still have been able to work with many of them as the state slowly opened up again. Daylee was one of them. A few years back (literally a few years back), we had the pleasure of working with Daylee’s older brother Drayden for his senior portrait, and now it’s Daylee’s turn. Amazes me to see how quickly time flies! Like Drayden, I remember Daylee when he was just a small boy (their mom and I were college classmates) haha. Well, he has grown into a fine young man! Congratulations Daylee! Have a small look at our session :)
Hey All!
Most recently, we got wind of our friends from HiBred House would also be taking part in the WAKO tournament coming up this month. So off to the Eastside we went! We ended up doing some portraits of them as they prepped for their upcoming competition. The fighters competing consist of Alfonzo Martinez, Tristan Futa, Scott Higashi, Webster Aluli, Nakoa Fujimura, Nate Yoshimura, and Ikaika Barboza. We even had Canaan Kawaihae appear for a cameo! Hibred House will be going up with Westside Striking to compete and hopefully put Hawaii on the map once again for combat sports. Have a look at our session and enjoy!

What’s up all!
We recently had a chance to work with our friends at Westside Striking again. This month they are taking a team of hopefuls to the WAKO Team USA Kickboxing National Championships in Nashville, Tennessee. Representing Westside Striking: Taz Kaleiopu, Joven Lopez, JJ Morales, Sefo Manuel, Quincy Manuel, Isaac Martinez, Christian Tajiri, and Brandon Abiva. We got to take get some portrait work in with them, with a little action on the side. We were unable to photograph Christian Tajiri and Brandon Abiva this time around, but hopefully next time around we will get the chance. Fun fact: Christian and Brandon actually fought each other a few years ago! Even though we didn’t get to work with them this time around, enjoy a little throwback of their fight. Have a look at our session with Westside Striking and enjoy!

It’s senior portrait season! Well kind of heh. We kicked off this season on the island of Maui. Our nephew Dylan is graduating this year, so we worked with him for his senior portrait session. We visited a few beautiful spots on Maui, which took a tiny bit of driving (which really was a lot lol), some hiking, and rain dodging. Nothing like a little family bonding (aka partially getting lost) while on our commute haha. All in all, it was a fun day with fun people! Have a quick look at our session and enjoy!
Happy New Year all!
It’s been a while hasn’t it? Despite the craziness of the pandemic, we plow on! Let’s get this year going strong and not let the difficulties of last year weigh us down too much!
We had the opportunity of photographing our cousin Blossom, who had just turned 5 months. The beauty of a baby milestone session is that we can document these special growing moments that family will look back on for years to come. Have a look and enjoy a bit of Blossom's session with us!
In case you missed it, we are now doing baby milestone sessions! Contact us for more information!
