Taylor wanted some pics to celebrate her first anniversary with Will. Here are a few pics from that shoot!
Words and images open hearts. For this engagement shoot, I wanted to tell a little bit of a story. I decided to to use the fact that Donnie and Brenda are currently in a long-distance relationship as a narrative element here. Donnie, still a student at the University of Hawaii at Manoa spends weeks or months apart from Brenda who's has already started her career in Travel Industry Management on the Big Island where she is from. Recently engaged, they miss each other dearly and yearn for time in which they can share and be together again. (I've witnessed first-hand their googly banter on Facebook! Awww, so cute!) He bears himself in a letter, which he mails with some photographs of sentiment. As Brenda reads the letter (for the 100th time) on the beach one day, he surprises her with a visit, and for a moment, they are one again!
And now, I present to you a few picks from the next set of photos in my couples series. My intent was to make these pics look a lot colder and more rough so that it would contrast against the last shoot I did ("Romance in the Country"). That one was set in nature among foliage and trees and quelled with highlight. In this one, our subjects are covered in cool weather clothes and mostly bordered by buildings and architectural lines.
Kicking off couples month), Nalani, Hoku and I headed down to the Windward side of Oahu for a shoot in the country. Things didn't turn out exactly as I had pre-conceptualized, but we did well enough, considering the circumstances. Photography is a game of variables, and luck and you do the best you can with the cards dealt. I'm not going to go into detail as to what happened... I get another chance next time!
