I’m going through a phase were I’m looking through all my archives. Here’s a wedding which I have photographed over a year ago (12/28/08). What makes this wedding so special and worth blogging was the positive energy and love that embraced all of us throughout the entire day. The day started with pouring rain but that didn’t stop the fun, go-lucky-happy person Gracie is. But after being positive and a little prayer, the weather cooperated letting the blue skies peak through the heavy clouds. As you may already know, Central Union Church is an amazing church known for it’s history and antique architecture but for their reception, (which was held at the Hilton Hawaiian Village) it was something I have never witnessed before. The decor completely blew me away! It was definitely a photographer’s playground. Thank you Gracie and Kyle for letting me be part of your special day. I am blessed to know you both and be part of your circle of friends.

Another blast from the past. It’s been almost a year and half ago when Lanovan tied the knot. It was just recently that I reconnected with Lan (Fighting Eel) at a birthday party (Sophia – Linh’s daughter) and that struck me to power up my archives and check out their wedding photos. I can easily relive their perfect day which was celebrated with family and close friends. To the Lanovans, congratulations on your anniversary but more so on your birth of your beautiful daughter, Ava Sky.

Frank – LOVE the new blog format! Beautiful pictures, as always. I agree about the last three photos being amazing, they almost look like paintings. Congrats on the good news too, so exciting!
I love! Especially the last three photos!
A blast from the past. Every once in awhile I like to look at my past archives and reflect on my couple’s weddings. It’s been almost a year since Fiya and Chris got married at the Waialae Country Club. I can almost completely relive their beautiful day. It was a windy day and it’s started to rain 30 minutes right before the ceremony. I was a bit worried, but had faith that the skies would clear up. Magically, the weather cooperated and skies opened up letting the sun shine on this beautiful couple. Despite the rain and wind (which blew sand on my lens), the day unfolded perfectly for this awesome couple. Thank you Fiya & Chris for having me be part of your special day.

I had the honor of photographing the amazing Jeremy Foo of Red Co Photography. Jeremy and his beautiful wife Ann were just recently married and spent a few days in Hawaii for their honeymoon. Congratulations to the both of you. Looking forward to your next visit to the islands. Next time around, we’ll leave the cameras at home.![]()

Thank you Ken!
Thanks Hannah. I think it’s more about the couple. I guess I am lucky to have awesome couples like Brandi+Ray!
Thank you Brandi. We had an absolutely great time with you both! You both were just so awesome to work with! And popular? hehehe.. maybe someone from your side of the world will be able to fly me over to photograph their wedding!
Thanks so much for being there to capture that day for Ray and I…and especially for our families. The pictures are amazing, and I look forward to seeing the rest after the new year.
PS – you’re pretty popular by our family and friends….they love the pictures and believe that they should be in a magazine.
there’s something so beautifully personal about these shots…amazing job as always frank!
Beautiful shots Frank… love the one with the tree bending over them!
