You're looking for the one - the photographer who can capture the beauty in your life the way that you see it. The indescribable look in your eyes when you see the ones you love. The way your baby's nose crinkles when he laughs. The first few minutes with your new spouse. The moments between the lines.

Hi! I'm Rae and I live in Hawaii. Yes, I think it IS as amazing as it sounds! I started photography 15 years ago and have never once looked back. Someone asked me recently why I love photography so much, and the answer is pretty simple. It opens my eyes to the beauty around us every day.
It's my job to know the most breathtaking places on the island, to notice those special moments on your wedding day, to find and capture each person's most beautiful qualities.A: I definitely love weddings because I love documenting relationships. Those special people are the most important parts of our lives.

Every moment that happens during your wedding day is special and a part of your story. I strive to capture everything from the moment that you walk down the aisle, to little details that you may not have noticed otherwise. Every detail is one that someone selected, every person has a reason for being here.
Rae is a wonderful artist, person, and an absolute joy to work with. I could not imagine our wedding day with any other photographers or the images coming out any better than they did. Rae is the utmost professional. She not only captured photos that are beautiful, unique, natural, and exactly what I had dreamed of, she also made the day go so smoothly.
I get it, pricing is what you are curious about! I know we are all trying to get the most for our money, and if you value the beauty of photography and showcasing it in your life, I think I could be the photographer for you. Hawaii is definitely one of the most beautiful places in the country, and it's also a time when you are with your closest loved ones.
After being asked about this often, I'm thrilled to announce that I'm offering mentoring sessions to photographers and creative business owners at all different skill levels. Your time will be customized to YOUR needs based on what you feel are your strengths, weaknesses, & goals. There is no pressure or judgement, everyone starts somewhere!

"Everything happens for a reason." I don't think it was luck that we got to meet and work with Rae for our maternity shoot while on our babymoon in Hawaii last week.
Long story short, we fired our original photographer, lost our $200 retainer, and hired a new photographer less than a week before our trip! We were desperate and Rae literally came to our rescue after I sent out an SOS on IG to find a photographer last minute. From our initial messages via DM to our phone conversation later that afternoon, Rae was like a breath of fresh air, NO JOKE!! I was so stressed, almost to

Rae is absolutely amazing! Don't hesitate for one second to book her. My husband and I got married 5 years ago and absolutely hated our wedding pictures. We didn't like our photographer (who we didn't meet until the day of the wedding) and I wasn't into my hair and makeup. I was so disappointed! We went to O'ahu for our honeymoon and fell in love with the Hawaiian island. Fast forward to 2018 - I was planning a trip to O'ahu for our anniversary and we decided to "redo" our wedding portraits! I'll take my dress to Hawaii and we'll have a photoshoot

SIMPLY THE BEST Rae surpassed even our highest expectations! She photographed our intimate wedding at Shipwreck Beach in Kauai on 10/01/18. We felt super comfortable with her as soon as she arrived. From start to finish, Rae was professional and captured all of those perfect moments. We needed a few photos for our big reception party that Saturday, so Rae kindly put together an incredible preview of the photos for us in 24 hours so we could have them to share with the family and friends who weren't in Kauai with us. Many thanks. If you're getting married, book Rae. It'll be the

I don't know where to begin with Rae and her work! My hunny and I searched months long for an amazing wedding photographer, but couldn't find one that had the quality, accuracy, and affordability at the same time. She definitely delivered way past our expectations, not to mention on how quick we received our images!! Most of my friends regret not paying a bit more for their images, and I promise you... YOU won't be disappointed!! Thank you Rae, seriously!! We love our wedding pictures, and are so thankful we had you capture our special day!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Absolutely would recommend Rae to anyone! She was always prompt and professional with communication, she was very accommodating with our schedule, her turn-around time was quick, and the photos turned out amazing. Best of all, Rae did a fantastic job of capturing every aspect of our wedding. Not just the ceremony itself, but the beautiful venue, the delicious food, and all the love in the air.
She exceeded our expectations in every way!
