A: Your meticulously curated & edited photos will be delivered via a beautiful personalized online gallery where you will be able to download & share your photos instantly. Typical turnaround times are up to 6 weeks for weddings/elopements, and 4 weeks for engagement sessions; however, I will always do my absolute best to deliver your photos as soon as possible!
Q: How & When will we receive our photos?
A: No problem! Neither are most of the amazing couples that I'm lucky enough to work with! I'm here for you to help create a space for you & your loved one to completely be yourselves, so we can capture those real moments of genuine connection. When the laughs & smiles are real, and the intimate moments are truly natural & heartfelt, your photos will be more than just pretty pictures — they'll be precious memories! All you'll need to do is be yourselves, be in love, and the magic will follow!
Q: We're not models! how do we pose?
A: Wear something you feel awesome and beautiful in. I have guides for what colors are best, and how to avoid bright and distracting patterns or logos, but ultimately if you wear what you love that’s going to be the most beautiful of all. Don’t stress too hard over it. The goal, after all, is to capture your connection, and those little moments rather than what you're wearing.
Q: What should we wear?
A: Although we can capture amazing moments at any time of day, the time with the softest & most beautiful light is during "golden hour". Golden hour is the hour after sunrise, and the hour before sunset. Soft light is the secret ingredient for gorgeous photos, and the light at golden hour is the softest & most flattering light available during the day. I recommend starting around 30 minutes before sunrise, and an hour before sunset.
Q: What time Do you recommend for us to schedule our shoot?
A: If you would like beautiful photos at an amazing location, but can't get there on your wedding day, you can add a 'Day After' adventure session to your package. This means we will choose a date soon after your wedding to shoot just the two of you in your wedding clothes!
Q: We would like to take photos at some of the most stunning locations around hawaii, but we would rather not leave our venue & guests on our wedding day. What can we do?
A: To keep your experience relaxed & unhurried, I've designed my portrait sessions to take about 1 hour; however, all sessions are fully customizable to add time for multiple locations & outfit changes.
Q: HOW LONG DO PORTRAIT SESSIONS (ENGAGEMENT/Day after/ETC.) TYPICALLY LAST?
A: Your meticulously curated & edited photos will be delivered via a beautiful personalized online gallery where you will be able to download & share your photos instantly. Typical turnaround times are up to 6 weeks for weddings/elopements, and 4 weeks for engagement sessions; however, I will always do my absolute best to deliver your photos as soon as possible!

"Eric is a brilliant professional photographer, detailed editor, and wonderful to work with throughout every stage. Eric took stunning shots during our engagement shoot and our wedding. He was the only photographer for our wedding and was able to take multiple shots of every moment during our day. He is attentive and quick to capture those split second moments. As awkward and silly as my husband and I can be in the momentary spotlight, he was able to help us feel comfortable being ourselves in front of the camera and made our shoot unique to our personalities. Our favorite pictures from him are the ones that candidly capture the interaction between us and show the joy of our love during each session. He encouraged us to be ourselves with a few helpful suggestions on how to position ourselves, which made posing super easy. He works earnestly to understand each person/couple and comes prepared for each shot. He went so far as to research and visit the perfect location in a forest next to a river for our engagement shoot- and when we were surprised by snow there on the day of the shoot, he was flexible and incorporated the elements in the moment for beautiful results. He is ready to go the distance for the perfect session. He is honest and fair in his pricing- and is totally worth every penny. The pictures were easily downloaded from a user friendly platform that I was also able to share with my family and friends. Whether the pictures are zoomed in on a screen, or printed large, it is apparent that the details and colors have been carefully and tastefully edited for maximum quality. Besides joining our families by marriage, the pictures are my most precious lasting souvenir from our wedding day. I look at these images daily and am so grateful that Eric was our photographer that preserved these memories."

"Eric did an AMAZING job capturing our wedding! Eric was super professional, fun, positive, spontaneous, and willing to go along with our ridiculousness. His presence made our entire day extra fun and special. ALL of his pictures came out so beautiful. I seriously cannot stop looking at them! If you're looking for a photographer for your special day, he's it! Thank you, Eric, for giving us beautiful memories to hold on to."

HELLO LOVELY COUPLES. I can’t recommend Eric enough. My fiancé is stationed in Hawaii so we asked him to do our engagement pictures. Let me tell you, he went above and beyond. He took the time with us to just feel comfortable and laid back. We’re the type of couple who is not used to being in front of a camera so this was the perfect vibe. He made it so fun and low pressure- and that’s exactly how the pictures turned out. Our special moments were captured so genuinely and beautifully. Eric also has fantastic communication and turn around time. Honestly there’s not one thing I would change about our experience. The product, the conversation, the price point... all 5 stars. THANK YOU Eric for the precious memories. I can only hope to work with you again someday!

"I can't say enough great things about Eric and the work he does. He made our whole engagement photo-shoot process so effortless and easy. We had never had our pictures taken professionally and worried that our shoot would be like that episode of 'Friends' where Monica and Chandler had their engagement photos taken, awkward. Luckily we had Eric. He helped break us out of our shell and made our time fun. Our photos came out beautifully! I fell in love with them and how they were taken. Eric really captured us in these photos, Our love, humor and personalities. He captured that naturalness of how we are. PERFECT! I highly HIGHLY recommend Eric if anyone is looking for an AMAZING photographer to photograph your special moments. He will not disappoint. Thank you Eric! You're the best! :)"
Shey + Brian
We hired Eric for our wedding, and he was wonderful! Such a nice guy and very professional. He set up multiple calls beforehand to make sure that he knew all of the shots we wanted to get, and they turned out great. We had also done a beach photo shoot with him before we were engaged, & that was a great experience as well! No matter what setting you’re in, Eric knows how to make you look your best. I highly recommend his services!
Kelly + Tom
"I wish I could give Eric more than 5 stars because I absolutely would. He is the best photographer that a couple could ask for. We scheduled just a normal couples photo shoot with him and my now fiancé proposed unexpectedly and Eric still captured all the amazing moments. He made us feel very comfortable and relaxed the entire photo shoot. I couldn’t have asked for a better day and the pictures he took were beautiful and he did an amazing job capturing every moment. Couldn’t recommend him enough!"
