We had such an amazing experience with our photographer in Hawaii! From the very beginning, he was incredibly responsive, quick to answer all of our questions, and so flexible and accommodating with our schedule and needs.
During the shoot, he made everything feel effortless and natural. His guidance with poses and positioning was fantastic, which was especially helpful because we aren’t naturally comfortable in front of the camera. He knew exactly how to capture the best angles and moments while still letting everything feel authentic and relaxed.
We were especially impressed with the raw photos — the shots were absolutely beautiful, with great composition, lighting, and attention to detail. He has a real talent for capturing both the scenery and the genuine moments between people.
We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer in Hawaii! He was professional, talented, responsive, and genuinely wonderful to work with. We’ll definitely be reaching out to him again for future photos!

Chris was SO understanding of our photoshoot with our 2 year old. He was so patient, friendly, and professional. We are so happy we chose him for our family photoshoot! Even the unedited pictures were amazing and he really made sure we got the photos we desired.

My husband and I highly recommend Chris! We had a wonderful experience during our maternity photoshoot and absolutely love how the photos turned out. Chris was very friendly and professional. Since it was our first time visiting Hawaii, he was especially helpful in recommending a great location for the shoot. We are so grateful for the memories he captured for us! Thank you, Chris!

Chris is so professional and super humble. I’m so glad we got to meet him, my whole family enjoyed our session as he gives such great directions and made everything feel really casual. I would hire him again as our photographer when we go back to Hawaii, worth every penny, his price is reasonable, absolutely amazing photos.

Chris was very pleasant to work with! I liked his shooting style by looking at his albums and when we work together I found the experience was even more pleasant. We took the family photo with Chris and he is very nice, professional and also very patient with our two young kids. He captured many many great photos and the post-shoot service was also great! I would definitely go find him if we ever go back to Honolulu to travel again.
