"A photo is not a photo just because someone clicked the "take picture" button. Aloha. I’m David Marsh, a professional photographer specializing in creative editing for over 20 years, a professional cinematographer prior to my career as a Kauai photographer. My rich life of photo and video design began when I was seventeen after I'd ditched school early to apprentice at Pinewood Film Studios in England, where they make the James Bond films. I was taught to edit 35mm film on flatbeds. That led me to being on the Emmy winning editing team of "The World At War." At 24 I moved to America after a lucky break landed me a gig to write, shoot, and direct low budget feature films. Not great films but a great training. The fare included “The Lords of Magick” and ”Stormswept,” all told fifteen films. During a one-year industry strike, a friend twisted my arm into doing video and photos of her wedding. I've now done thousands of photo sessions, weddings, baby bump, engagements, family photography. I've been shooting on Kauai since 2010. When I'm not shooting or hiking I like to write.

While the photo session comes first and is absolutely integral to great looking photos, post production in my humble opinion is just as important. I strongly recommend photo-touch-up for amazing photos. It's included in my Prime and Summit editing options. Here's a tenet of mine: I believe it's important to recognize in your photo set our stunning island.
Shooting intimate couples photography Kauai, you not only can see what Kauai is like, you can feel it.
Fun, sun, mood, love, passion, playfulness. Real life. In a couples photography Kauai session all our needed.
As a Kauai professional photographer, I love to get in close when it matters, bearing in mind that not every one wants such a tight close up.
I'm not solely a professional photographer. I wrote my first book in 2004. Published by Sea Chest Books, it sold, well, a piddly amount of hardback copies although it did garner some complimentary reviews. Today, I have three novels I'm hopeful of seeing published, two others not yet completed. All YA (young adult) fantasies in contemporary settings.
I would love to be signed by a literary agent.
If you know a literary agent, I'd be happy to trade for a free photo session including creative portraiture editing. I don't mind you test reading first. See Here for pitches on the novels. Or click on "Free" below for full details.
