I am glad that I discovered Kevin. He took our family portraits during our recent Oahu vacation and…read morewas simply AWESOME! He choose a wonderful spot/time of the day for photo shoot and got beautiful pictures of our family. He is also wonderful and extremely nice person. Highly recommended. Edit: I am planning our next vacation and was working on booking someone for a photoshoot. I was constantly thinking/reminded of Kevin and wondering how I choose someone similar to him (almost after a year since we went to Hawaii)..It does say a lot! You wouldn't go wrong with Kevin!

Pet parents, please don't be fooled by this "complimentary desk portrait" offer. Based on my…read moreexperience working with Kevin, I am highly skeptical of any positive reviews his business has. While the photography session itself is technically "free," be prepared to be subject to predatory conditions: you are required to pay a ~$150 "booking deposit" and sit through a mandatory follow-up Zoom appointment to actually get your portrait. The entire process was packed with passive-aggressive upselling, including an upfront warning that if I needed an additional Zoom meeting to finalize my portrait(s), there would be an extra $200 fee associated. He also insisted that I invite my significant other to the follow-up session to ensure that "all decision-makers" were present. This felt extremely patronizing and misogynistic, especially since I had already explained to him that I would be making the decision for my household and that additional input was unnecessary. During our follow-up Zoom call about a week after the session, Kevin spent a good part of the time stalling. After a frustrating 25 minutes of having to sit through Kevin's emotionally manipulative tactics, I let him know that I would need to leave the call early in 10 minutes and asked if we could expedite this process, at which point his "friendly" demeanor instantly changed. He told me that he would be keeping my deposit and charging me $200 to reschedule. I made it clear that I was no longer interested in his services, meaning there would be no need for an additional meeting, and asked for my deposit to be refunded. After a tense back-and-forth, Kevin reluctantly agreed to refund my money. While I understand that he blocked off an hour of his time, the stalling I experienced during my thirty-five minutes on the call felt like a setup to force me into that extra $200 meeting in hopes of selling me an overpriced, lackluster product. His constant claims of "not trying to sell me anything" while very obviously trying to sell me something were exhausting. This business relies on holding your deposit hostage, stalling to pressure you into additional fees/products, and using emotional blackmail over your pet. Save your time and stay far away!!!!!!

SO MANY reasons why this whole experience was a 10/10…read more This was the first photoshoot my daughter and I did together just the 2 of us, so it was extra special. Matty took us on an adventure that was perfect for my 4 year old. She loved every minute of it and keeps asking when we're doing it again. And then THE PHOTOS. Matty is super talented. He will climb, get in the bushes, and basically do whatever it takes to get the right shot. I've worked with a lot of photographers through my work, Matty is a very rare find. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

If you are going on a special trip and want to adventure, explore, get out on the water, eat, drink…read moreand chill then one of the most important things is to be able to truly immerse yourself in the experience and know that everything is taken care of... That is why booking a service like Matt provides is a must! We had a big family trip planned on Oahu and wanted to do as much stuff as we could for the week we were there. I was referred to Matt as someone who could not only plan and make arrangements for all the stuff we wanted to do, but also he could capture all those moments with his photography. Sure, we can all snap a pic with our phone and most of the quality is pretty darn good, but being able to have someone else thinking about it and getting shots that were epic was something we had not done before and I would greatly advise ditching the selfy stick and trying this method out. You won't regret it! Give Matt a call for your next trip to the islands and I promise he doesn't disappoint!

He showed us the poses to do, and was super fast in his clicks so that we could get more photos with other backgrounds. Because we had a two part wedding (ceremony in Paliku Gardens and reception in Cafe Julia), timelines were tight, and he was able to get all of the shots we wanted in both locations with the perfect lighting. During the reception, I even requested a few additional spontaneous shots that he accommodated and he helped the DJ stay on schedule as well. On top of all that, the photos came back in just 2 weeks and I get so emotional every time I look at them, they captured a perfect blend of portrait, candid, and joy. I can't thank him enough for photographing our big day!

The posed shots looked good, but the candids were amazing. He caught us laughing and enjoying the day together - with three generations in the pictures, we'll always treasure these! Matt put some images up for us to review the next day - we got to share these with our friends while we were still on vacation. We got a cd with beautifully edited files (black/white, color and sepia mixed and some really cool cropping/features) in less than a week. If you're local and looking for a fun activity or gift idea, or if you're visiting and want to remember your trip to Hawaii, definitely contact Matt. We are looking forward to making this an annual event!
