“ Kanekoa was great to work with! We had a wonderful time during our shoot and love how the photos turned out...no small fete wrangling 3 kids who just wanted to splash each other most of the time. ”
“ Thank you, Marissa! The photos are great and you were so wonderful. ”
“ Our experience with Kanekoa was incredible. He made it so fun and gave us many beautiful images that we love. Not only is he very talented, but he made our time together enjoyable. Our photoshoot was on the eve of a hurricane, and he communicated so well prior to the shoot about whether or not we could even do it. He also made it possible for us to get lovely pictures even with the windy weather. We highly recommend Kanekoa to other families looking for vacation photos they will treasure. ”
“ Sej perfectly captured my son’s playful side in our family photos. She knew all the best places for perfect backgrounds around our hotel grounds. Every photo she took was true perfection. Thank you Sej for capturing our Hawai’i memories! ”
“ Excellent experience! Our photos were magnificent! ”
“ Absolutely a true professional ! He treated us so well that it became a really fun time and a highlight of our Vacation and anniversary! ”
“ We had a great experience with Kanekoa! He had availability for us on short notice. He chose a great spot for us to take pictures at that was close to our location and convenient. He was very communicative prior to and after the shoot. He knew how to pose us as a family of 4 and included a variety of combinations for us. We absolutely love our photos and will cherish these memories forever! Highly recommend him for your future shoots on the Big Island. ”
“ Sej was great with our kids, managing well with the whole family from grandparents to our youngest. Thanks for a great shoot! ”
“ Rui was INCREDIBLE! So kind, funny, attentive and listened to what we envisioned...his artistic qualities made our family photos stunning. I would hands down, ask him to do another session if we lived on the Big Island. ”
“ Lauren did an excellent job and beautifully captured some precious moments of my family during our Big island vacation. We are usually not very comfortable in front of camera but she really made us feel comfortable and easy. Our happiness was perfectly portrayed on the pictures with her expert hands. ”
“ Kanekoa was amazing! We were so happy to have him capture these special moments for us in Kona. We sent him some wish list items and he took it from there. He picked the perfect location and had everything planned for us. The communication was also great, when traveling to a new location that part is extremely important. He also brought props and made jokes to get our 4 year old to enjoy the photo shoot. Not only was the shoot great, the photos were even better. His style makes the photos look bright, natural and really capture the beauty of the island. You can’t go wrong booking Kanekoa for your island family photos. ”
“ My family of 4 (with a one and three year old) enjoyed our photoshoot with Loryn and love the candid and posed pictures she took! My 3 year old daughter said it was one of the best parts of our vacation and warmed up to Loryn so quickly during the photoshoot. She improvised quickly when one of the kids started to get tired and even asked if my husband and I wanted pictures of just the two of us (which I'm glad I said yes!). She's definitely great with little ones and we all had a good time with great photos to look back on ”
“ Rui ‘s photos are beautiful! He was timely, responsive, and kind. It’s always hard to get little kids to smile (we had some stubborn ones!) so we appreciate how hard he tried! Thanks Rui for capturing our beautiful family vacation ”
“ Kane was absolute gem! Unfortunately for him he had to deal with a VERY challenging 3 year old during the shoot. He was gracious, patient, and really cared. He listened to what he were trying to go for in the pictures and even offered to meet us later in the week for more pictures bc our 3 yr old just wasn’t having it! Thank you Kane for your incredible photos and experience. Highly recommend! The pictures were beautiful ”
“ Kanekoa was a wonderful photographer. He took photos of our large multi-generational family using multiple backgrounds and groupings, yet was able to do it all very efficiently! Highly recommend!! ”
“ Kanekoa took great photos of our two families. Despite not so optimal lighting conditions, our photos came out great. He accommodated changes to schedule, accomodated our photo requirements and overall pleasant to work with. I will recommend Kanekoa to fellow tourists. ”
“ I love the way the shoot turned out. Fantastic photos and comfortable experience. ”
“ Rui was great to work with - laid back and good with the kids! He made the photo shoot fun and we love our pictures! ”
“ Got it—this review is for Flytographer and your photographer, Loryn: Loryn was absolutely wonderful! She made our family photo session in Kona feel fun, relaxed, and effortless. We were celebrating my 50th birthday, and she captured such beautiful, natural moments with my girls and our family. She was warm, patient, professional, and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos are stunning and truly reflect the joy of our trip. These are memories we will treasure forever. I highly recommend booking Loryn through Flytographer! ”
“ We really enjoyed our photo shoot with Rui. He was funny, and engaging and made everyone feel very comfortable. My favourite quote from him was, "the answer is always yes!" The only surprise to me was that his wife was not present. I thought when I booked that they would both be there. That being said we are beyond happy with the pictures and I just love his edits and how they made the skies look. That is why I booked with them in the first place. So he met all my expectations. I highly recommend Rui. ”
“ Rui was kind, warm, helpful - and full of tips for us as a local (which we followed to a T and enjoyed immensely!) He made us feel comfortable and captured great photos. Thank you, Rui, for everything! ”
“ Lauren was easy to work with, fun and full of ideas for our photos. You can see the results in our photos. Everyone is relaxed and having a great time! ”
“ We had the most amazing photo shoot with Sej! She made us feel completely comfortable from the very beginning and captured the most beautiful, natural family photos with stunning light. I can’t recommend booking a photo shoot with Sej enough. I envisioned natural photos that would capture genuine emotions, and that’s exactly what I got—and so much more. You can truly feel the love, joy, and fun we shared during our session. These photos are the perfect keepsake from an unforgettable vacation, and we’ll treasure them forever. ”
“ We loved our photoshoot with Lauren, she's so nice and made our kids feel comfortable. The pictures were amazing. So happy we did this. ”
