I look for natural frames
I'm a Kauai photographer who strives to make every photoshoot fresh and original, like an actor who goes on stage every night who never does the lines the same way. So of course, I direct. I'm aided by the topography. The beaches are forever changing, new sand berms rise along the shoreline that weren't there a week ago, fresh vegetation forms after the rains. On a photoshoot, my eye is always on the hunt for natural frames. Thirty years as a professional photographer, sixteen as a photographer in Kauai is in your corner.
Why Choose Me as your KAUAI PORTRAIT photographer?
Getting the best outdoor portrait photography
I could write a ton of stuff here, but I think my photos speak for themselves. So please check out my photo galleries. If there's one reason worth stating, however, which sets me apart from many, it's my decades of experience which has turned me into a whiz with seamless staging. Oh, and there's one more thing. I'm a stickler for portraiture's emotional core rule. I often see other Kauai photographers who get carried away with the scenic drama when balancing subjects, with the scenic drama overpowering the subjects. I can’t imagine the client showing off the photos back home, knowing they might hear, “Is that tiny thing you?”
Talent plus skill needed to orchestrate
A Kauai photographer who choreographs to minimize dangling arms, drain pipe legs, and awkward hands. I encourage affectionate interconnectedness between subjects. The bottom line: stunning outdoor portrait photography.
An extra step in the editing
While nearly all Kauai photographers will edit your photos, not all can or will add dimension. Why is that important? In two words: flat lighting. An overcast drab day can all too easily lead to drab photos. I won't accept that. Not only will I fix, I’ll beautify, make you look fresher, less tired. I’ll add zing, zest and pop into your photos.
