We connected immediately on the phone and via email. She responded to emails right away and was able to suggest alternate locations when the weather prevented us from wedding on our first choice beach. The day of the wedding of course emotions were running high but she did an amazing job of calming them and performed a beautiful Hawaiian chant at our ceremony. She was extremely patient and loved all the props that I brought to make our photos unique. She was able to capture the love in our hearts and provide us with pictures we will cherish all our lives. Finally, the photos were ALL incredible. I was fully prepared to alter them as needed as her rates were so reasonable I assumed we would receive rough images. That was NOT THE CASE. Her photos were gorgeous and undoubtedly she did touch up a few. If not I want her to follow me around everyday. I cannot say enough good things about her pictures and professionalism. I wish I lived on the Big Island so I could use her more and trust me when I return I will look her up. With the warmest Aloha thank you so much for making our wedding day perfect!

Sarah was great! She made taking pictures into an exciting event! Really enjoyed the photo shoot…read more She and Michelle were very energetic, artistic, and were very helpful in offering suggestions to improve the quality of our pictures. You could tell that they genuinely cared about the quality of their work and the satisfaction of their customers. But honestly, you feel more like she is a friend than someone you just hired to take pictures. The experience was great, she made the entire process enjoyable, and we are still getting facebook compliments from everyone who views the pictures on facebook. If you are looking to get pictures taken for an important event, you can't go wrong with her.

Rhianna is amazing in every way! I don't even know where to begin…read more I met Rhianna when picking out a wedding photographer 3 years ago. She took my wedding photos (through another vendor.) Rhianna happily met up with my husband and I two weeks before the wedding in Santa Barbara to go over photo options and do a complete walkthrough. On our wedding day Rhianna was early and ready to go. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She has such a fun, bubbly energy about her that it made our nerves go away. Her laughter and positivity is contagious! We laughed more with her than anyone else on our wedding day. Our photos from that day are absolutely stunning! Two years after our wedding, I reached out to Rhianna to have her take family photos with our one year old son. We are relocating away from Southern CA and I wanted special beach photos to remember this time in our lives - so these photos had to be perfect! She spent so much quality time with us to get the photos just right. We got our photos on time as expected as well. It was a great experience! Rhianna is extremely talented and great to work with! I would have her take all of my family photos for the rest of my life if possible! She is easy to communicate with, timely, and delivers high quality work. Her pricing is a steal also. Worth every penny! I highly recommend Rhianna for a wedding, family portraits, or any other important event you want to capture. She puts her all into her clients. Rhianna is the best of the best!

We met up and discussed outfits, location, and exactly what it was we wanted. She was so easy to talk to and work with. Not only did she have us laughing but she was completely professional. All we had to do was show up and she did the rest. We got our photos back and were blown away with the results. We got results that not only surpassed her super reasonable rates, but the photos were so incredible as well. She lead us through the entire experience with comfort and ease. It was like hanging out with my best friend for that time. I HIGHLY recommend Rhianna's work to anyone who's looking for not only breath taking photos, but also a relaxed environment where you can be yourself and let your beauty and happiness shine!!! Are there any more fancy descriptive words to throw in here to display me squeeling in happiness right now??!?? :)

From the start, he was very responsive with booking the best date/time and location for our family events. He provided a great list of beaches for me to review and choose from. We traveled to Hawaii with our 3yo and one grandmother so wanted to capture this family memory, especially the bond between my daughter and her grandmother. Mark answered all of my questions/concerns and gave me confidence we would capture a special day. He was amazing to work with during the session especially given our NOT easy 3yo who was tough to capture. He documented so many special photographs of our family and they are beautiful. He was brilliant and VERY patient working with our 3yo and cannot thank him enough for this. Pictures were also delivered faster than expected or stated in the contract. ***Major kuddos for his patience with out daughter and family. Overall--EXCELLENT and will book another session if returning to the Big Island. Thank you Mark!

Jimmy and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Josh Fletcher with Fletch Photography…read more Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the most important decisions we made while planning our destination wedding on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi, and Josh exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we first connected with him, he was incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely kind. On the day of our wedding (February 5, 2026), he was truly a dream to work with. His personality is so calm, easygoing, and reassuring, which made the entire experience feel effortless and relaxed -- something we appreciated so much during such an emotional and meaningful day. When we received our gallery, we were absolutely blown away. The photos are breathtaking. Josh captured every moment so beautifully -- from our church ceremony, to our traditional Hawaiian sunset ceremony overlooking the ocean where we exchanged our vows, to our reception celebration. He perfectly documented not only the big moments, but also the quiet, emotional, and candid ones that mean so much. It was clear from the beginning that Josh understood our vision, and he delivered beyond anything we could have imagined. His talent truly shines through every single image. If you are getting married on the Big Island and are looking for a photographer who is incredibly talented, professional, and wonderful to work with, we wholeheartedly recommend Josh. We are so grateful we found his portfolio while searching for photographers in Hawaiʻi, and these photos are something we will treasure for the rest of our lives. Mahalo, Josh, for capturing our wedding day so perfectly. We already cannot wait for our return to the Big Island and would love to have you capture our family as it grows. -- Mary & Jimmy Kopanic

Also, communication from Josh's end leading up to our wedding was almost nonexistent. Josh took multiple days to respond to texts and sometimes never returned them only until we told our wedding coordinator about the lack of communication.
