Fast forward 4 years and we have booked with Sandy Swift again! My husband and I enjoyed our wedding photos so much, we came back for more! My husband and I no longer live on Kauai so when we came back on vacation, we knew we had to reach out to Sandy for more photos! No surprise that it was amazing again! We had such a fun time together while getting jaw dropping pictures. I can't thank Sandy enough for putting me in flattering poses and making me feel beautiful. I can say with confidence now, your photos will come out exceeding your expectations! Believe me, I've done it twice! I also had a nice reunion with the veil I left for her! Sisterhood of the traveling veil!

Couldn't recommend Kayli and Matt enough! I asked them to photograph my proposal in Kauai, and…read moreKayli helped me with all the details: where/when to do it for the vibe I was going for, how to position myself and my girlfriend for the best possible shot, etc. Following the proposal, we spent 1-2 hours getting shots nearby, and Kayli and Matt helped us with a bunch of different poses while getting plenty of candids along the way. The proposal and photos couldn't have turned out better, my fiance and I love them. Would absolutely trust them again. 11/10 would recommend.

Kayli and Matt are fantastic! I found them on Yelp, inquiring about a family photoshoot. They…read moreresponded quickly with details about how to book a session on their website. The process was fast and simple--find an available date on their calendar, and either pay a deposit or the full amount. We booked a mini session. For a family of 3-6, the shoot is 30 minutes and you receive 20 photos. In addition to that, I added the sneak peek package. Since we were visiting Kauai from California, I did what most people would do when they vacation--check the weather app. It showed rain for the entire week! You can imagine how devastated I felt. I sent an email and asked for their recommendation on how to proceed. They reassured me that island weather is pretty tricky and no weather app is ever accurate. I trusted their judgement, and it gave me confidence to move forward. Fast forward to the day of the shoot. We shot at Kalapaki Beach--a beautiful, iconic beach. It did not rain, but it was overcast a bit for a period of time. That didn't bother me because they took great photos. We're grateful for their patience with our two rambunctious boys (ages 3 & 5). They worked so well with them, and our boys felt really comfortable. At one point, Kayli asked our youngest to "run to Uncle Matt" and I thought that was sweet--felt like we were treated like family. On top of that, they made sure we got all the shots we wanted--I think we may have went over the 30 minute limit. But I could tell they enjoy taking photos to get the best shots. They are so great to work with. At the end of the shoot, Kayli had a special surprise for our boys. She had them pick three things from a Magic Box full of small trinkets and toys. What a sweet and thoughtful gesture! Our boys loved it. Overall, our experience was lovely. From their first response to post photoshoot. Kayli and Matt are responsive, kind, patient and passionate about photography. They are truly professionals. I would absolutely recommend them. When we go back to visit with more of our family, I mentioned to both Kayli and Matt that we'd love to bothem again.

The photography session was easy to plan, and she was responsive. She was patient with our large family gathering. We encountered issues after the shoot. She didn't give us our gallery until over a month after the shoot, and this was after many follow-up emails and text messages. I missed the opportunity to give my mom a Mother's Day photo gift. The online gallery Keala provided was low-quality pictures. The images, when downloaded, were under 1mb. Even a 5x7 was too grainy and pixelated. After several attempts to request the original files, I had no response. We take family photos once per year, I'm super disappointed that we won't be able to use any of the photos. I don't like giving negative reviews for small businesses but I thought it might be helpful for a future family to avoid some stress and grief. We made a mistake.

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.

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.
