I'm so glad to have booked with them for our Wedding in December 2022 right before Christmas (so glad they were available). I have been waiting to work with them all year, I also wanted to make sure I supported local (and to support a friend from high school - many of our vendors went to our high school and are in the event/party planning business, so we wanted to support them all as well). Hazel is great to work with, the process to book with her was through her website, she had the best communication from start to finish with emails about our wedding, theme and everything. So professional and quick to work with. We booked Photo Perfect Hawaii for three hours and it was honestly money well spent for everything that was included. Hazel customized our template designs, which matched our wedding invites perfectly! Our photos were in such great quality, her props are the seriously the cutest (they're actually my fave props I've ever seen at a Photo Booth so far) and the backdrops are gorgeous! She gave us our photos and a USB with all the photos at the end of the night and was also quick with sending us a link online to share with family and friends. How awesome! Definitely will be working again with Hazel and her team for our next event!! Thank you again Photo Perfect Hawaii! You helped us make our wedding a memorable one with all of the photos to keep as memories. :)

I HIGHLY recommend Photo Perfect for your next big event. Working with them for my grad party was a…read moresmooth process (they were super patient with my last minute changes) and the pictures came out amazing! You're able to design what the printed picture will look like (ex: how many pics, placement, size, text, and background) to fit your party's theme. They have a lot of props and signs; I loved the local pidgin themed ones! The best part in my opinion is the high quality photos you get in the print AND the downloadable pics they send to you right after your event. I love being able to have them on my phone to share with my family & friends or even print out in a bigger size later! Hands down the best photo booth I've ever used

I inquired with Allan about our daughter's 1st birthday after seeing his work on IG. I emailed…read moreAllan to inquire about his photography services and got a quick response with the different services he offers. I had already booked photobooth with our emcee package so I was looking more at his Photo/Video Event Service. Which I should of looked into his photobooth service because he had a better deal but definitely will look into booking more services for future events. I was in contact with Alan throughout the year for any questions and concerns I had. He's quick to respond and is available through text or email. I also added the slideshow services a few months before after a fallout of another vendor I was suppose to do it with. He was able to do it with no problems. I gave the slideshow pictures a little over a week before the party and he showed me a sample of it. It got me choked up on how beautifully it turned out with all the pictures and songs put together. We just had our daughter's birthday within the last week and had Allan photographing our event with the help of Makoto doing the video. They both were prompt and ready to service the event. At first I was suppose to have the VIP photo wall at the entrance so we could take pictures with our guests upon arrival but due to the winds outside it had to be moved it. It crowded the area a bit with couple vendors aside the photo area but Allan tried his best to make use of the wall and have us take pictures. We were all over the place so we didn't get to use it to the full potential but I know he capture all the important stuff during our event. Especially suggesting to take our family photo outside. He took some great captures of her smiling! Allan just sent me a link to the sneak peak photos and I'm excited to see more photos as he'll work on continuing to edit in the next few weeks. After all the running around during the day to set up for the party and the hectic night of welcoming people in, I didn't get a chance to take pictures myself so I'm glad I had them to capture the moments to relive on later. He provides great quality work and am definitely looking forward to looking at the video highlights as well. Thank you Allan and Makoto of Photo Ops Hawaii for servicing our daughter's 1st birthday!

They had actually been one of the photo booth companies I had been following on Instagram but I was still deciding. She had nothing but good things to say about them so I checked out the prices and inquired. All communication with Allan was great. I gave him vectors that I used to make our invitations and after I showed him an example of what I kind of wanted he did a great job creating our layout. At the wedding, the staff was so nice to all of our guests. Our cocktail got moved from outside to inside in the foyer. They offered to start earlier so our guests could have some fun during the cocktail hour. We all loved the fun props and I'm super picky about lighting and the lighting on their booth is awesome. Lastly, they provide you with an online album to view and download all your photos which was great because I got distracted at the wedding of course and misplaced mine. My husband and I highly recommend PhotoOps Hawaii!! Affordable and great quality :)

Stop looking. You've found your photographer!…read more Choosing Christie was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From start to finish, we couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Christie is the definition of a true professional.  She runs your wedding day like a well-oiled machine. Everything stays organized, on schedule, and incredibly efficient, allowing you to make the most of every moment without ever feeling rushed. You can immediately tell she's photographed hundreds of weddings, and that level of expertise is absolutely priceless when it comes to capturing some of the most important moments of your life. You'll quickly realize that you need to not only choose someone whose photos you love, but also someone you can trust to keep everything on track and never miss a moment. There are a lot of complicated logistics involved in getting all of the great photos, and you want someone who has done it hundreds of times and knows exactly how to organize people and keep everything moving. That is Christie Pham. One of my favorite things about working with Christie is that she gives you the best of both worlds. She beautifully documents the genuine, candid moments of your day while also knowing exactly how to pose you so you look your absolute best in your portraits. She knew exactly how to direct us while still making everything feel natural. I trusted her, and it put my general anxiety about the day at ease. The artistry in her work is incredible. She captured not only the stunning scenery, but also the emotion of the day, both ours and our guests'. Looking through our gallery truly feels like reliving the entire wedding.  Christie is also wonderful to collaborate with throughout the planning process. She takes your requests seriously, is honest about what is and isn't possible, and uses her experience to help you get the best final result. She and her husband work seamlessly together, each carrying multiple cameras so they never miss a moment. We were amazed at how many perspectives they captured throughout the day, and yet they somehow blended into the background whenever they needed to. Beyond being incredibly talented, Christie and her husband are simply wonderful people. They are kind, calm, fun to be around, and exactly the type of people you want spending your wedding day with you. Our friends and family absolutely loved them, and so did we. We only get one wedding day, and we're so grateful Christie was the one who captured it. We truly couldn't recommend her more highly. If you're considering Christie, book her. You won't regret it. We only wish we could do it all over again. (Also we got our sneak peaks in SEVEN DAYS, I was so surprised by the speed; that's just an extra bonus :))

Christie Pham Photography is nothing short of AMAZING!…read more My wife and I were so blessed to have Christie Pham and her husband, Matt, capture both our engagement and wedding photos. Their creative eye, artistic style, and thoughtfulness helped commemorate some of the most special moments in our relationship. Truly, their work speaks for itself. In addition to their artistic gifts, they are incredibly warm and genuinely easy to work with. I do not say this lightly when I say they have so much aloha--love, compassion, and generosity--and you can feel it in every interaction you have with them. I distinctly remember meeting them over Zoom while my wife and I were interviewing prospective photographers. Their wedding portfolio was obviously stunning, but it was their energy, warmth, and aloha that stood out most. In fact, they made such an impression that we chose our wedding date around their availability because we couldn't imagine anyone else capturing our special day. Looking back on both our engagement shoot and wedding day, Christie and Matt truly felt heaven-sent. As a husband-and-wife team, they worked together seamlessly, always seeming to know exactly what the other needed. Whether it was positioning us, fixing a stray hair or adjusting a collar, or managing the equipment, they made everything feel effortless--at least from our perspective. I think this is important to mention because my wife and I don't consider ourselves particularly photogenic or naturally comfortable in front of a camera. Christie and Matt's expertise immediately put us at ease, helping us relax and enjoy every moment. Before getting married, I never realized just how integral a photographer is to the wedding day or how much time you'll actually spend with them. Of course, they play an essential role in documenting your wedding, but in many cases you will spend more time with your photographers than with many of your own guests. Thankfully, spending the day with Christie and Matt felt like spending it with family. Their aloha was infectious and, honestly, exactly what we needed throughout our 10+ hour wedding day. I also have to mention how incredibly well they worked with our other vendors. The synergy among everyone was obvious, and we were fortunate to be the beneficiaries of it. We will forever be grateful to Christie and Matt for preserving these precious moments in our lives through their art. I don't know exactly when we'll need a photographer again, but whenever that time comes, there is no doubt in our minds that we'll be hiring Christie Pham Photography to capture those memories as well.

We hired Isle Media for our wedding, drawn by their attention to detail in response to our original…read moreemail as we vetted vendors and their beautiful portfolio shared with us in a following meeting. The photos we received for our wedding turned out wonderfully -- our families were so happy with them, and we were grateful to have those memories captured. But sadly, we're now past 8 months since our wedding, and we still haven't received our highlight or full video, despite following up several times. We also asked for a few specific/missing photos (a large group reception shot and a portrait of the bride with her immediate family) that still haven't been delivered. What's been most disappointing is the lack of transparency and communication. We've been incredibly patient, giving space for the creative process and trying not to rush the team. But after so many months and repeated follow-ups, we're left feeling anxious and in the dark. We've just repeatedly been told "next week" for months and now we've reached a point that we've been entirely ghosted. We trusted Isle Media to preserve the emotional essence of a once-in-a-lifetime day -- and now we're afraid we may never get to relive it the way we had hoped. For a service of this cost and significance, this level of delay and silence is deeply disheartening. If/when our remaining photos and videos are delivered at the high-quality standard you would expect from Isle Media, I'll gladly update this review -- but as it stands, I wouldn't want another couple to go through this and therefore can't recommend their services to anyone looking for an event photographer/ videographer.

He was so patient with our bridal party and with us being awkward in front of the camera, and really helped guide us throughout the entire process from getting ready, all the way up to the end of the evening dancing the night away. Justin's experience and playful personality truly exceeded our expectations and the final product just knocked it out of the park! SO SO IMPRESSED! Now I want all my big life moments captured by him. Don't hesitate to book Isle Media, they're absolutely the real deal and know what they're doing. Made our special day even more exceptional! Thank you Justin!!!

I was surprised Jen got good pictures out of her, but amazingly she got all the most precious and tender moments. She was also very patient and kind to my daughter. My daughter's birthday was perfect and the pictures were wonderful. We got really good family pictures, which difficult are to capture. My family was really happy with her photos. Jen worked well with my coordinator Geri of Angelic Creations during the birthday party. She stuck to the schedule and got all the right moments. I look forward to future grow with me sessions and future family photos.

I have never written a Yelp review in my LIFE (you would think how much I love food I would have…read morepiggy lingered in writing about a whole ton of restaurants to reminisce). But I was really moved to write my first yelp review because of how outstanding and full of aloha this local business is. My boss put me in charge of getting a group shot taken during our huge convention at a hotel in Waikiki. I'm pretty new to my job and I was anxious not to mess this assignment up. There are others who do professional group shots, but I just had a feeling about Jen who was one of the first businesses to respond to my inquiry about such a large shot (see attached for the amazing job). Her quick, engaging, thoughtful and helpful replies reassured me that it would come out great. Come the day of the photo shoot and Jen and Abe showed up very early to set up and they were complete pros!!! It was blazing hot during the time of the shot and she had to use a big ladder and squint a lot in the sun, let alone direct around 200 people, but the photos came out beautiful. I remember weeks before that she asked me what kind of "feel" I wanted for the pics. What a sensitive and thoughtful question to ask...I told her I wanted it vibrant and look how they delivered. I had people preorder and ordered extra but they still sold out because their shots came out so nice. They usually do family and baby kinds of photos, but they really showed they have the professional range to do pretty much anything. And as people they are incredibly professional, helpful, dependable, easygoing and warm to work with. With high stakes moments (like when are these 200 people ever going to be in the same place at the same time again?? or a wedding, etc), you want the peace of mind that you have good people who know what they're doing in charge. After they got their shots, I told them how thankful I was they busted their butts in the sun to patiently get the shots and they were just like that was nothing....totally fine. So impressed and thankful, mahalo nui Jen and Abe!

I honestly cannot believe I haven't written a review for Daphne yet! I've hired her for both a…read moreboudoir session and an engagement photoshoot, and she is truly incredible at what she does. I love her to death! If you are looking to capture a special moment or just want to feel empowered, here is why Daphne is the person to call: The Boudoir Experience: Pure Confidence First off, you do not need to be a model. Daphne makes you feel beautiful regardless of what anyone else says. She is positive, patient, easy-going, and an amazing communicator. She makes the cutest comments while shooting ("You look so sexy!" or "Hold that pose, it's perfect!"), which instantly boosts your mood. The Coaching: She guides your body into specific positions. Yes, sometimes the poses feel a little "uncomfortable" in the moment, but trust me--it is worth it! When you see the results, you'll literally think, "Wait, that's me?!" She helps every woman feel confident and fall in love with their own skin. Engagement Photos: Capturing the Love For our engagement session, the weather was on our side, and Daphne's cues produced the most stunning photos. It was my husband's first time in front of a professional camera, and he was definitely a bit nervous. I was there to help him smile, but Daphne's constant "cute comments" about us as a couple really helped him settle in and made me feel wonderful. Daphne has a gift for bringing out the best in people and making the process feel natural and fun. Whether it's a gift for someone special or a treat for yourself, you won't regret booking her!

She was incredibly professional, very responsive, and extremely friendly. She also gave great advice regarding optimal backdrops for the photos. The initial unedited pictures were upfront beautiful and the final product was breathtaking. She caught amazing candid pictures throughout the event and did an awesome job directing the group photos (ie imagine posing a large group composed of both elderly grandparents and 4 year-old grandchildren). She was so polite in helping people position themselves for the picture, while also making them feel very comfortable throughout the process. After our wedding, I realized that I had not taken a single photo and was 100% grateful to have Michelle capture our wedding - she did an outstanding job. I cannot fathom how our wedding gallery at the end had such a wide variety of photos, yet she somehow moved seamlessly throughout the event. Overall, I highly recommend Michelle and would definitely work with her again for my own future photoshoot events!

From the very beginning, Emily was very communicative, answered all our questions, shared her ideas, and also guided us through the entire process. My absolute favorite part of working with Emily was how professional and timely she was. For our pre-ceremony shoot, she shared sneak peak in a matter of 12 hours...can you say superwoman?! A few days after our wedding, she sent a sneak peak slideshow of our amazing (edited) photos, complete with music that brought us all to tears! There were so many little sweet moments she caught on camera that just made the photos much more special. I cannot recommend Emily enough.

I immediately fell in love with Emily's artistry when I stumbled upon her Instagram! Words cannot explain how beautifully she captures everything so check out a few of the wedding pics I shared along with this review, as they speak volumes about her work. Emily's packages were also very reasonably priced, which left room for my now husband and I to add on a wedding album and USB drive of all the photos to our package. I don't think you'll find a better value for the quality of wedding photos that Emily delivers. Emily is also such a kind and accommodating person! Our wedding ceremony and reception was planned for March 21 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic abruptly shuttered everything on Oahu. So instead of the 200 person reception we planned, we postponed the reception with our extended family and friends to next year and opted to marry in an intimate ceremony with our immediate family instead. Throughout this whole craziness that unfolded in a matter of 2 days, Emily was extremely sympathetic. She was able to still come out for a mini session and capture our intimate ceremony. She was very nice and was more than happy to postponed our wedding package to next year when we get to celebrate with everyone else. She arrived early day-of and was very good at people wrangling too! She guided our family efficiently and got all the family pictures in, and had a way of making my husband feel less camera shy. The day after our ceremony, Emily had already sent me some sneak peeks that looked amazing and that we could share with our family and friends! And within one month she had finished editing the entire gallery from our wedding. Our family and friends absolutely loved all the pictures we shared, and we cannot wait for her to capture the big reception next year. She is amazing. Hire Emily!!
