“ We absolutely love our photos done by Kanekoa. I asked him for a location recommendation and said I wanted beachy golden hour photos and the spot he recommended was absolutely perfect and the photos turned out better than I could have imagined. He made us feel very comfortable and accommodated some last minute changes. I would highly recommend Kanekoa to capture your family memories on the Big Island! ”

“ Kanekoa was a great photographer! He suggested lovely spots for our photo shoot, taking into consideration the location of our rental house, age/mobility of participants, etc. he was very patient with my four year old who refused to smile for the first 20 minutes and eventually she was smiling in the later pictures. He got all the various groupings of our large extended family and put us all at ease. The photos turned out great! ”
