Frequently Asked Questions

  • What kind of attire and colors photograph well?
    Usually soft, muted colors such as white, tan, mauve, and any pastels photograph very nicely on our beaches. Flowy dresses for the ladies looks very pretty with our trade winds and for men, a nice button down with a light-colored pair of slacks works well.
  • Do you allow outfit changes?
    You are more than welcome to do multiple outfit changes during our session but please keep in mind that doing so will cut into our shooting time.
  • Can you recommend a hair and make-up artist?
    Yes, I can! Once I've received a deposit I will be more than happy to share all my resources with you.
  • Where can I find leis to wear for our session?
    There are a ton of ABC Stores in Waikiki and you can find leis there. If you are looking for a haku lei (the lei women wear on their head), I recommend Cindy's Lei Shoppe in Waikiki (they deliver) or another small flower shop called Le Flower.
  • What will the weather be like for my session?
    Unfortunately, I'm unable to forecast weather more than a few days out. Even at a few days out it's not always accurate. The good thing is that our rain tends to move through rather quickly. If it begins to rain we just take a short break and then resume when it stops raining.
  • If the weather is looking bad on our date, what are our options?
    We can reschedule to a date and time that works for both of us at no charge.
  • How far in advance do I need to book your services?
    As soon as you know you'd like me to be your photographer I'd suggest sending me a deposit so as not to lose your preferred date and time. I confirm dates and times with whomever gives me a deposit first.
  • What do you charge for a deposit?
    A one-hour or less session is $100. For anything longer, I charge a 50% deposit.
  • Are your deposits refundable?
    Deposits are non-refundable. However, if you are not able to make it to your session, your deposit will be good for one year towards another booking.
  • When is the balance due?
    The balance is due at the completion of our shoot.
  • What forms of payment do you take?
    I will accept cash, Zelle, Venmo, CashApp, Apple Pay, PayPal, and credit card
  • What is the fastest way to get ahold of you?
    Please call me at 808-960-6999 between the. hours of 8am and 10pm seven days a week.
