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!

From our very first interaction, I knew Krystal and her photographic magic is exactly what we…read moreneeded to fulfill our..well my family photoshoot dreams. 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.

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!

His response was lightning fast,and his customer service was top-notch-I've never experienced anything like it!He asked about our preferred location,and when we said no,he recommended a spot that was PERFECT. My daughter loved working with him;he's super professional,friendly,and full of energy! The pics were-we loved them all! We ended up hiring Kyler twice(graduation and her 18th bday party),and we're still obsessed with the results. Kyler and Lance are a dream team-easy to work with and totally professional. We've worked with a bunch of photographers,but Kai-Photo is on another level (and their prices are so reasonable!). I'm still smiling every time I look at the photos-they're just that good! Highly recommended Kai-Photo Hawai'i for your next event or photo shoot. Can't wait to work with them again! Thank you,Kyler and team -job well done! M. Domingo Obana P.S. Love our photo book from July 2025 too!"

It happened…read morethat the photographer we had worked with in the past was out of town on holiday so he highly recommended Levon. We feel really lucky that he was available to take our photos. What a professional Levon was -- he's sooo talented and so chill. He made it easy to photograph 3 generations of family members. He sent us processed photos in a timely fashion. He helped edited out eczema flare that appeared for one of the sessions too. The photos look wonderful. He made a special moment in time really look magical. We'll highly recommend booking photo sessions with Salty Cures/Levon.

Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

If I could, I would give Mark Holladay 10 out of 5 stars. He shot my destination wedding on the…read moreNorth Shore last summer, and did an amazing job; and I get compliments on my wedding photos all the time. I live in Los Angeles, and after looking at dozens of photographers (including all the usual suspects listed here on yelp, and in the bridal directories), they all looked a little stiff and conventional (and often times not that skilled) -- not to mention, the decent ones were ridiculously expensive! Luckily for me, I stumbled upon his website, and loved the style of his photos -- hip, a little quirky, and not cheesy (if this sounds like your style, be sure to check out his blog to get a feel of his aesthetic). From the get go, Mark was extremely easy to work with, accomodating, and a great presence during my wedding. Many of the guests actually commented on what a cool, laid back photographer we had. I honestly think that who you choose as a photographer is one of the most important parts of your wedding experience because those photos last forever; and I think that Mark did an amazing job (his photos were bright, well composed, and intimate), and was worth every penny we spent. I would hands down recommend him to anyone getting married in Oahu.

He helped suggest a beautiful spot that had both mountain and ocean views, which was absolutely perfect. He was discrete with contacting and made sure to let me know what he'd be wearing so I could locate him. He played it cool acting like he was there taking photos of the ocean and sprang into action when it was time. He was by far the most reasonably priced and he was a true professional. He even got me a large sample of photos within 24 hours of the shoot so that we could share our proposal. I would higly recommend Adam Palmer Photography!

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!
