Kanekoa's Feature Portfolio Photo
Meet Kanekoa in Kona
Aloha! My name is Kanekoa. Native Hawaiian photographer here in Kailua-Kona. My specialty is portraits & landscape photography! Having photographed over 400 multi-generational family sessions, I've mastered the art of coordinating large groups and ensuring everyone — from grandparents to fidgety five-year-olds — looks their best in the same frame!

Three Things
- I love photography because I am able to capture once-in-a-lifetime shots for families on vacation! I also love droning and able to take photos and videos from the sky!
- A photoshoot with me feels quick, easy and simple. So please set aside any nervousness, and look forward to a fun photo session!
- My top 3 recommendations for Kona are 1) Volcano National Park, 2) Cloud Forrest Reserve, and 3) Punalu'u Black Sand Beach (early morning).

Kanekoa is an amazing photographer - this was by far the best photo shoot we ever had! His attention to detail is impeccable and he had wonderful recommendations for our photos, including how we were positioned to get the best shot. Our kids loved working with him, too! And while it’s tough to keep their attention for a full hour - Kanekoa had a special way of making it super fun. During the shoot, my kids kept saying how great Kanekoa is - and he is “5 stars.” I highly recommend him if you’re on Big Island and want some amazing photos that will make your memories last forever.

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.

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.
