I booked Ikaika about a hidden proposal in Haena Beach Park a month before proposing in March 2025. I was unsure about location to propose so Ikaika consulted me on a phone call about potential locations and times available. He was very detailed and thorough about pros and cons and tailored his service towards my preferences. Ikaika also offered back up time slots in case other circumstances changed our scheduled shoot. Ikaika was responsive throughout the day of the photoshoot. Proposing is stressful enough and Ikaika made the coordination process seamless. Our photos came out incredible and better than I could have imagined! Ikaika captured the moment perfectly and I am so happy to have these photos to reflect and share for the rest of my life! Post proposal photoshoot went well and Ikaika has a great photography eye to combine the beauty of the scenery and his clients. We took up the full hour and took any photo requests we had. Ikaika delivered 8 sneak peak photos to us through email the day after the proposal. The rest of our photos were sent 2-3 weeks later.

If you're looking for a family photographer in Kauai, book James. From start to finish he was fun,…read moreeasygoing, and genuinely great to be around, which made the whole shoot feel relaxed rather than stiff or rushed. He even chatted with us about Kauai along the way and offered to share recommendations for places to go. We got hit with rain several times, and instead of letting it derail the session, James just rolled with it. We ducked under trees, waited out the showers, and he extended our time so we never felt cheated by the weather. We have daughters who are 2 and 5, and anyone with little kids knows how that goes. They got wet, they got sandy, they had their moments, and James handled every bit of it without missing a beat. Somehow he turned all that chaos into gorgeous photos. He struck a perfect balance too, capturing natural moments as they unfolded while also suggesting poses when we needed a little direction. The photos came out beautiful and we could not be happier. If you want someone talented, patient, and truly fun to work with, James is your guy. Highly recommend.
