Allison & Nitin's Ceremony at the Hyatt

It was a beautiful and sunny day today at the Hyatt terrace as Allison and Nitin tied the knot.  These two are so sweet together, and although we only just met them today, it was easy to see how perfect they are for one another.  We are so happy to have spent the afternoon with them.  Congrats to our newest wedded couple!  

Throw Back Thursday

2015 was full of great memories and amazing people.  We shot an array of weddings, both local and destination.  Here are some of our videos from the last few months of the year.  To see our full gallery of wedding videos you can also check out our Vimeo page, or contact us directly if you want to see some of our other unlisted portfolio work.  

A Personal post -- An update on Garbanzo, Bean, and Ipu

It's been 8 months since Marlene first found three 1-week old chicks abandoned in a paper bag at the park.  We fell in love with these cuties immediately, and were super lucky to find them a beautiful and loving home at the Equine 808 Horse Rescue in Kunia.  When they were young we visited them as often as possible, but over the last few months it's become harder and harder to find the time.  Whenever we are able to make the drive out, it's always worth it.  Spending time with these three is always the highlight of our day.  We had the morning off, so we took a break from editing to get some b-roll shots for a video we're putting together about long-term health care, and then we hopped on over to Kunia to visit the babies.  Here they are at 8 months out:  Garbanzo (the rooster), Bean (the one that looks like a black bean), and Ipu (the light gold one).  I think they still remember us!  

Our goal for down the road is to compile a "time-lapse" video of them growing up-- We have loads of video footage that we've captured over the last 8 months.  

Kate & Dane's intimate Hilton wedding

Kate and Dane got married this morning surrounded by close family and friends, at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Rainbow Suite patio.  It was a beautifully sweet and intimate event that couldn't have went better!  After many emails and phone conversations with these two, it was so nice to meet them in person and to take part in their celebration.  We're super excited to share a few screenshots from the video we captured.  Congratulations Kate and Dane!

Wonderful to meet you guys!  Kip and Kristi at Izumoto Photography and Chester at Brown Luxury Entertainment.

Karen & Loi's Beachfront wedding

Karen and Loi travelled from Vancouver to Hawaii to get married at this beautiful estate in Laie. We were so impressed by how wonderfully everything came together, and even the weather cleared up just in time for the celebration.  We're so happy to have met these two, and we look forward to sharing the final videos with them in the coming months.  Many well wishes to our new friends, and safe travels home!

Always a pleasure! Louise Moriarty at Love Letter Weddings.  Nice to meet you Tobias Chu at Six Sixty Studios!

Marimu & Chris make it official

This was not our first time at the Hale Koa Estate in Hauula, but it was definitely our most memorable!  Marimu and Chris (and Chloe, of course) hosted an amazing party at the estate, decking it out with amazing decor and making it a night to remember.  Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Phan!

Nicole & Noah's Ranch Wedding

Our first post on the new blog!  January has been busy for us, and after a much needed (but too short) vacation to California to visit family, we're back and refreshed and ready for 2016!  Our January couples were totally awesome!  Here's a little sneak peak from the last wedding of the month.  Nicole and Noah got married at Kualoa Ranch in a sweet and simple ceremony.  This wedding was especially memorable for us because of two very important and sweet little additions, Toby and Maki.  Those pooches have it good.  Congratulations Nicole and Noah on a beautiful wedding celebration!
