STORIES ROOTED IN PRESENCE, CRAFT, AND HONEST EMOTION

We’re a small team of photographers and filmmakers based in Hawai‘i, documenting weddings and intimate gatherings with honesty, emotion, and intention.

Whether you’re planning something big or beautifully quiet, we’re here to help you remember it the way it felt.

MOMENTS THAT STAY

What we create isn’t just about the visuals, it’s about what lingers after.

WHAT WE DO

(and Why it feels different)

We don’t just document what happened, we pay attention to how it felt. Whether it's motion or stills, what we deliver is designed to feel honest, lived-in, and deeply personal.

Crafted for Feeling

Documentary First

Designed for couples who care

We approach weddings the same way we do personal stories: minimal direction, maximum feeling.
The quiet in between moments mean the most.

We work with couples who value honest storytelling over staged perfection. Whether your day is 30 guests or 100, we’re here to help you feel seen and leave you with something that lasts.

Before I ever documented weddings, I spent years photographing and filming in the community like nonprofits, families, elders, and everyday people whose stories deserved to be remembered. That work taught me to see what’s real. To pay attention to what’s quiet. To tell stories with care.

That same approach guides everything we do now. Weddings aren’t just events; they’re layered, emotional, deeply human experiences. Our job isn’t to stage them. It’s to witness them and preserve them honestly.

PONO GRACE

THE PROCESS

  • Once you reach out, I’ll send a few thoughtful questions that help me understand your day, your values, and what you're hoping to feel when you look back on these memories.
    We’ll also talk through coverage options (photo, motion, or both), what matters most to you, and what feels like the best fit

    You don’t need to have all the answers. You just need to know what matters to you.

  • I offer a curated set of collections that cover photography, motion, or both. Each designed to balance storytelling, emotional depth, and value.
    If your day has unique needs (multi-day, cultural traditions, documentary requests), we can always adjust.

    I keep things simple and upfront so you can focus on the fun part.

  • A signed agreement and a 1/3 retainer secures your date. From there, I’ll walk you through what to expect, what to prep, and how we’ll stay in sync.
    You'll know exactly what’s included and when you’ll receive it.

    I keep things simple and upfront so you can focus on the fun part.

  • My approach is grounded and intuitive. I’ll guide you when it matters whether that’s helping you feel comfortable in front of the camera or keeping the day flowing. But I also know when to step back and let things unfold naturally.

    Most people don’t know what to do in front of a camera and that’s okay. You don’t have to. I’ve worked in community spaces, nonprofits, and intimate gatherings reading the room and knowing when to lead comes naturally.

    You won’t need to worry about what’s next. I’ve got you.

  • Your story is edited and crafted by me never outsourced. Whether it’s stills, motion, or both, everything is delivered with intention: color graded, emotionally paced, and ready to be relived. Typical delivery is under 60 days.

    No mass produced feel. Just real memories, preserved with care.

If something about this feels right, trust that.
We’d be honored to document your day with the care it deserves.
