He made me feel very comfortable and welcome, he communicates what he is doing (with lights, furniture, props, etc), we had great conversation and laughs, and the photos turned out phenomenal. I'm looking forward to shooting again, and I recommend his work to anyone looking to get boudoir and bodyscape photography done!

We corresponded over email and her response time is about a day or less. She has about 3 different packages and about 9 locations she likes to shoot at. We chose Kualoa regional park because it had a few different backgrounds (beach, mountains, outriggers, and dock). On the day of the session she met us at the park and we walked to the locations. She was very easy to work with and she was pretty in tune with the needs of our 1 and 2 year olds. When the girls got fussy or didn't feel like cooperating she would shoot couples pictures of us. Her prices are very reasonable and the pictures came out amazing. We will definitely use her services again if we're back on Oahu.

Her professionalism, expertise, and friendliness were second to none!

We stayed in Ko Olina and Mel knew exactly where to do the photo shoot and the best time of day for the beauty and lighting of the photos. The photographs she took were incredible! She was able to get us the gallery so quickly and they are awesome.

The city photos are usually of San Antonio, but he's got a bunch of other cities he's photographed. The photos are typically large, colorful and really interesting! Saunders has a giant photo rig that allows him to take incredibly close up photos of flowers, and get all the great details in there as well. My favorite photos are those of irises, where they look like animal closeups. If you show up on First Friday, they often have a few bottles of wine and some light snacks to munch on while checking out the works of art. If you're down here, I recommend that you check this place out!
