5 Months With Blossom

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!

We Got A Kepa!

Happy New Year Everyone!

So many events happened in latter half of last year, and we just lost track of time. We haven’t blogged in a while, so time to get back at it!

We had the pleasure of photographing some of our best friends’ engagement pictures. Our son was one of the ring bearers for the wedding, which was already an honor for us. We had a blast, being that we could just let them be themselves, and let their fun and ecstatic nature take over. Congrats to the newly Mr. & Mrs. Kepa! Here’s a quick look into our fun filled session! Enjoy!

Dulay vs Vanapruks Part II

Happy New Year All!

It’s been a crazy year in 2018. In fact, it’s been so crazy that we weren’t able to post all the events we wanted :(

But the world deserves to see the awesome people we work with!

One such event was Sarah & Justin’s engagement. As you all may know, we did their epic save the date pictures, which was transformed (special thanks to Amanda Hipolito) into a crazy fight poster!

Take a quick look into their engagement session. As you can tell, we had a BLAST!

May you all have an awesome 2019!

Francis

*Their wedding was crazy epic, but we’ll save that blog post for another time ;)

Drayden Senior Portraits

Hi All!  For the last (minute lol) senior portrait of the season, we got to work with Drayden!

I first met Drayden back when he was in elementary school.  His mom and I were college classmates, and man was it quite a difference seeing him now and remembering him back then!  He grew quite a bit (not really, more like a lot haha) and got to know him a little more during his session. 

Congrats on making it this far Dray!  Continue to prosper and looking forward to what the future has in store for you!  So lucky you get to go to Japan for your graduation present!  Dress up and go meet up with some anime fanatics while you are there!

Rained In & Shooting With The Crew At O2

On a cold and winter night... Is it even winter yet?  It was definitely cold haha :)

Hey all!  Last night, we decided to pay a visit to our friends over at O2 Martial Arts Academy.  One of their fighters, Matt Lascola, was going back home to Pittsburgh after making Hawaii and especially O2 his home for the last several years.  Starting as a wrestler, he honed his skills at O2, and eventually became a force to be reckoned with. 

Matt collected a number of championship belts during his time here in Hawaii, and wanted to record his memories not only with the belts, but also with his brothers, who also had belts to show off in their own regard.

Be sure to remember the name, Matt Lascola.  He is leaving our lovely home with only 1 loss in many kickboxing and mma fights, and leaving with a perfect pro record in MMA.  We will miss you Matt!  Remember us here in Hawaii when you make it even bigger!

Thank you to Matt, Kenny, Eugene, Cody, Alex, Sheyden, and Justin for choosing us to shoot with, and much thanks to Mike, PJ, and Chris for allowing us to come down and having us shoot with the gang!

Here's a look at our fun, yet serious and as you can tell, uhm, silly photoshoot!

Little Sister Is A College Graduate

Happy Saturday everyone!

With graduation season finally here, we join our friends and loved ones to help celebrate their achievements!  Gosh I remember my high school and college graduations.  To see my friends and family there with me to share in the moment, it was was without a doubt, a joyous occasion!

Seeing my sister graduate with a Bachelor's degree is another one of those fine moments that I will remember for the rest of my life.  Of course, I had to get some shots in for her sake :)

Have a blessed day everyone!
