Brittney – Fashion Photography Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

kahuku — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 05:10:36 +0000

I recently contacted the clothing company, Ainofea, to use one of their tops for a fashion shoot. I was able to connect with Brittney, a wonderful local model, here in Kona. I would say she worked this. I loved working with Brittney. She was super fun, and up for some of my crazy idea.

Hello Tenzin Kitty!

I’m preparing for a long event shoot tomorrow. I took a few sample shots of the cat, Hello Tenzin Kitty, to make sure everything was working correctly. All the lenses are cleaned, batteries charges, and all appears to be in order. I’ve also been brushing up on different batch editing techniques in Lightroom & Photoshop. I’m scratching my head as to why I didn’t pursue these earlier. What I’ve learned is going to make life much easier. This series of Tenzin was made using the new techniques.

Morrighan & Bug – Hawai’i Child Photography

kahuku — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 02:46:13 +0000

A few weeks ago, I attended a local fashion show produced by a small non-profit group. The group has plans to start helping local children break get into modeling. After, the fashion show I gave my card to one of the organizers in the hopes of helping some of the kids get quality head shots. Bug and Morrighan were the first to take me up on the offer. We had lots of fun on this session, even if everyone kept making Bug laugh. They are great kids. Fun and easy to work with. I hope to get to work with them again soon.
