My Approach to Wedding Photography
“As a wedding photographer based in Kailua, I prefer a photojournalistic approach, allowing me to capture love and emotions through the camera’s lens. When it comes to wedding photography, I’m most inspired when I have free creative control. Capturing the moment of love is so magical and it allows you to think out of the box.
Hawaii is simply the most spectacular place for photography I’ve ever seen. You have so many options to choose from and can get an assortment of photos and backdrops that will just blow your mind.”
-- Kristen Hook

“I could not have asked for anything more from a wedding photographer. Wedding photos are so important and you only have one shot - and Kristen is absolutely AMAZING! She was so professional and fun to talk to and gave an awesome artistic twist to our photos.”
Frequently Asked Questions
“How many pictures do I get?”
Unlike some other wedding photographers, I’ll provide you with every photo I shoot during your wedding. That way you can choose exactly which ones you love. Of course, I’m happy to help you pick the ones that I think came out best, too!
“When’s the best time to get married in Hawaii?”
Anytime! While we do have a bit of a rainy season in Oahu (roughly November through March), rain showers are often brief but can be intense. When we’re planning our wedding photography session, I can help you decide on backup locations and options in case of rainy weather!
“I don’t know anything about photography and how to pose. Can you help?”
I love helping brides, grooms, and their families and wedding guests feel at ease and comfortable. In addition to taking plenty of candid photographs, I’ll take posed and unposed portraits and will help everyone look their very best.
“I’m not from Hawaii, can you help me pick a place to take pictures?”
Yes! As someone who lives and grew up in Hawaii, I know the best places to take wedding and engagement pictures, including some spectacular locations that you won’t find in a tourist book.
“Do you do offer any non-traditional wedding photography services?”
Of course! I love trash the dress sessions and non-traditional weddings. I’ve even photographed weddings in the ocean and one where all of the guests swam and kayaked to a tiny island!
