I apologize for not being able to update my blog as much as I promised, but this year has been sooooo hectic; from Biology/Chemistry exams at school, to weekly fashion films, to weddings, to family time, PLUS still trying to be social. I am super excited to start blogging again though, and whats greater than blogging about NIGHT MARKET.

This event is all about art, fashion, culture and FOOD. Night Market & Kaka’ako really try to merge local businesses and artists, and they do it so well. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you MUST! Check out the photos below, share the blog, follow, steal the pics, do whateeevaaaaaa. 

Stay tuned for some exciting stuff, promise!

Philip and I shot this wedding back in July a few days after my birthday. It was one of the first weddings we worked together.

We both flew in really early and basically spent the day with Mary and Justin. They were such an amazing couple, they're vows were beautiful, and the venue was awesome!

Our gear got rained on, and we pretty much almost missed our flight.

Check out their highlight here and stay tuned for the full feature!

I can finally say I have worked with both of the Miguel sisters, hehe.

Erica is so down to earth and SUPER sweet but I have to be honest, I was pretty intimidated. I don't know why, but I just was. Went around downtown and shot natural light for the most part. I used my flash for a few of the shots, and even my iphone light. Thank you Cassie for coming along and helping me.

Love that my mkIII can handle high ISO. I was shooting with:
mkIII
50mm 1.2
35mm 1.4
ISO 2000+

Check out the shots..aloha.



 





December, be kind....

It's been a while since I've blogged. With finals and everything, it was hard for me to find the time to sit down and post something. Can't believe the year is almost up. 12 days til Christmas, 10 days til Niki comes home, 8 days til the world ends...etc. Time is going by so fast, just gotta make the most of everything.

Anyways, I went downtown tonight to scout for my next shoot. Only brought my mkIII and 50mm but was able to snap a couple of pics. Everyone was so happy and the city looked super nice, I love this time of the year.






Celebrating Faith

November 24th is the date that represents the memorial of the Vietnamese Martyrs. Every year, our cathedral celebrates this event to honor the saints, their lives, and their accomplishments.

I am the pianist for the choir, but today I decided to play photographer.

Here are some of my favorites from today.

Shot with my 5D mkIII, 24mm, 50mm, 135mm, and 70-200mm.

Check out the rest at and like our choir's Facebook Page:
