He asked if he could propose to our daughter the next day during our Christmas Card photo shoot, which we were going to do with causal iPhone picture. Frantically I turned to Yelp at mid-night to find a professional photographer for a next day photo shoot. Ocean Light Photography to the rescue. Kal was responsive, profesional, and affordable. Our daughter was surprised and the moment was captured. Can't wait to see our images. Thanks Kal for helping to make the day special and keep the memory alive through your beautiful photos. * I'll update when I receive the photos. Kal comes through again! Our photos came in! BEAUTIFUL! Kal is super responsive, professional, talented, and tends to customer needs. For a small fee, I was able to pay a rush fee for turning around our photos. I needed them to meet a Christmas card order deadline. Kal captured a very special moment for out family and also helped us create a beautiful Christmas card photo. Mahalo Kal!

Waited for us on the beach. He was very professional and his patience taking our family pictures were superb. Def recommend him.

Also, recommended great beaches and areas to take pictures and took his time taking each picture.

We had the absolute best experience with Michelle in Oahu. From the moment we met her, she was so…read moreeasy to work with - calm, kind, and just someone who instantly makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is not always easy). The photos turned out even better than I imagined. She didn't just capture how everything looked - she captured how it felt. The love, the little in-between moments, the natural joy of the day... it's all there. And somehow, she made the already stunning Oahu backdrop look even more beautiful. Also, shoutout to her patience because the wind was aggressively fighting my bangs the entire time, and she handled it so seamlessly without ever making it feel stressful or rushed. Genuinely couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. If you're even considering booking her - do it. The quality of her work and the experience she creates are both so, so worth it!

Michelle was super friendly, easy to work with, and made the whole process so comfortable. I love her soft, bright style of photography and our photos turned out exactly how I imagined--absolutely beautiful! Even after the photos were taken, she went above and beyond--helping with image fixes and being so patient with all my requests for help. These are memories we'll treasure forever. If you're in Oahu and looking for a photographer, I highly recommend Michelle!

Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also made us feel comfortable and captured genuine, beautiful moments with the most amazing scenery! We loved our maternity photos so much that we knew we had to come back and recreate them--this time with our toddler. Last month we booked her again and it truly felt like a full-circle moment for our family. She captured it perfectly all over again and she was so sweet with my toddler too - he loved her! The entire experience from first communication to photoshoot day was seamless, fun, and easy going. She also has such a great eye for detail! We're beyond grateful to have these memories captured and for her! Thank you Krystal Highly recommend!

She is so warm, communicative and a wonderful person all around. Our interactions never felt merely transitional, you could feel her love and passion for creating these magical memories on (digital) "film". Our session was everything you could ever ask for. Not once did it feel forced or awkward and that is evident in our photos. Loved this experience so much and we are so thankful we found Krystal.

They were also unbelievably prompt with editing and releasing our photos -- we could not believe how quickly everything was completed! Radek was wonderful throughout the entire process. He gave great direction during the shoot to make sure the photos turned out amazing while still feeling natural and comfortable. His knowledge of the area was also so helpful, and he helped us choose the perfect location for our ceremony. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful. They captured not only us, but also our family, the emotions of the ceremony, and all of the little moments that made the day unforgetable. We are forever grateful for the memories they captured and the effort and care they put into everything for us. Great communication, beautiful work, and an all-around wonderful experience.

From the first quick inital response to my inquiry and the detailed instructions was so helpful. Radek allowed me to personalize our experience with a specific location and time of day since I wanted to have photo session during sunset. I appreciate his attention to detail to make sure every picture was perfect. He was so quick and efficient so we were able to shoot so many photos during our session. His rates are very affordable and worth it, I would recommend him to all my family and friends. Lastly I'm so appreciative of his quick turn around time, I was so impressed that our photos were available after 1week. Thank you Radek, we will definitely be requesting more photo shoots in the future.

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. She's an absolute gem and will capture the most beautiful moments that you'll get to cherish for life. Thank you Emily for your amazing work!!

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!!
