If you want a senior portrait session on a beautiful Hawaiian beach you've found the right photographer. Prices starting at $400. Value I enjoy being a good value. I believe in upfront, simple pricing. No sales tactics here. No hidden fees. Just add Hawaii State sales tax (4.7%) and you have your full package price.

For small beach weddings I can provide a 200W boom box (Aiwa Exos 9) with bluetooth and battery power. It's bigger than most other bluetooth speakers and pretty loud in the 5-10 foot range outdoors. Indoors it's loud to about 15 feet. It's great for background music as you walk up the aisle at the beach.
Pros- This beach is the most versatile of all the spots I use for family pictures. The jungle blocks most of the wind, lots of great backdrops- beach, banyan tree, etc, shady all morning. Pros- Very pretty sand and water, Easy to park, 45 minute drive from Waikiki. It's easily the prettiest place within 45 minutes of Waikiki.

My husband and I absolutely LOVED Adam and the amazing shots he captured of our elopement. We asked him to hike to the top of a mountain to take our elopement photographs and he was so excited to take the adventure with us! We had to re-schedule the day before because of rain forecast and he worked with us and did our shoot the day after with no question. Every photo turned out absolutely amazing and so natural. He is so talented in his photography, but also made us comfortable and we had so much fun with him! After the shoot he suggested some places to eat and see around the area which ended up

My fiancé and I recently had our engagement photos taken by Adam. Our photos are absolutely stunning and we couldn't be happier! This was our first time having our photos taken by a professional photographer and we had so much fun. We can't wait to have him take our photos for our upcoming wedding. If you're looking for a great photographer on Oahu, Adam is your guy!

Adam was such a pleasure to work with on our wedding day. Relaxed and professional, he put our nerves at ease from the very beginning.
Our pictures turned out fantastic, and we couldn’t be happier with them! He captured us beautifully, and I will forever be thankful that we were photographed by this artist.
Fast forward to FOUR YEARS later. Adam reached out to let me know he was changing his electronic storage system, so I would need to be sure my photos were saved or they would be lost. He was so thoughtful to reach out to me and let me know this change was happening.

My friend and I were beyond impressed with Adam. I hired him to take photos of us on the beach for her birthday. It was raining that morning and Adam called saying we could reschedule. We went ahead and shot that day anyway. Dispute the inhospitable weather, the wet hair and cold our photos turned out amazing. We ended up shooting in a different area that was lush and green with hills and the mist made it look kind of dreamy. The experience was fun (like a mini adventure in the adventure of our vacation). He got them to us in less time than he had promised and offered to photoshop some of the ones

Adam was super cool to work with! A nice guy! He took our wedding photos back in 2009. I was 7 months pregnant and you can't tell in most of my pictures. He made it fun for us! We now have 4 children and they all love looking at our wedding photos! I attached a few pictures. Also, we lost a group of photos and over 10 years later my husband was able to get in touch with Adam and retrieve those photos through his website/link/app. Thanks for everything!

Adam is fabulous!! Knowledgeable, professional, patient, and kind! We were vacationing in Hawaii and found Adam A. Palmer Photography from an internet search before we arrived. His website answered ALL of my questions - it's very thorough and clearly written. He replies to emails in a very timely manner. The Senior pictures he took captured the personality of my child. I highly recommend Adam A. Palmer Photography!

Had the pleasure working with Adam for the third time. Our engagement, wedding and most recent family photos were amazing. He knows all the popular areas on the island that highlights your photos well. Wonderful personality and very patient when taking photos of our family. His photos are a true work of art. Flawless and remarkable. I highly recommend!

Adam did a wonderful job for us. The location he selected was perfect and he knew the best shooting angles, composition, and poses. We had so many good pictures that will be hanging on our walls and over the fireplace. After we selected the pictures we thought were the best, Adam went back and touched up as needed to make them perfect. We highly recommend using Adam.

Adam is amazing! My family of 8 was visiting Oahu for the first time with ZERO knowledge of the island. Adam was in constant contact with me regarding possible rain and gave alternatives incase we needed to adjust (thank god we didn't). He is very knowledgably about the island and suggested a beautiful beach close to our location.
The photoshoot was fun and easy going. It was over quickly and even my teenagers were remarking how fun, easy and quick it was. Despite being expeditious, we got SOOO many amazing photos. He exceeded my expectations in a photographer as did the images he was

Adam did a great job of working with our extended family for our family portrait that we wanted done while we were having our reunion in Hawaii. There were 15 children, so such a task he had in making all of us look good at the same time. He took lots of shots of the entire family, plus many of each individual family. He had a great way of interacting with the kids of all ages. We were very pleased with his efforts, as well as his flexibility on time and place. I would recommend his photography to anyone visiting the islands

This review is long overdue. Adam Palmer was my wedding photographer a few years back. I had a small beach wedding and I really wanted to have a good photographer as having good pictures was really important to me. I was not disappointed! Adam took beautiful pictures of my wedding and my husband and I (and all of our guests) were thrilled with the photos!

Adam is an excellent photographer. He is timely with communication and organized. We booked him for a 45 min session for our twins’ senior photos as well as some family pics. My kids had so much fun with Adam and literally thanked me for booking him. He is calm and professional. His photos are absolutely beautiful and we are so grateful 📷

I had my wedding a few weeks ago in Oahu and Adam was our photographer for an underwater photoshoot as well as our wedding day. I chose him because of a recommendation from a friend as well as his website and reviews. I'm so glad I decided to go with him because he was so chill and easy to work with. For the underwater photoshoot, he brought us to a very nice and secluded beach and worked with us even though we weren't the best swimmers. On the day of the wedding, Adam showed up right on time (or even a bit earlier I think) and caught all the moments I was hoping for. He turn around time

Adam was very easy going and professional. We had a destination wedding in Honolulu, Hawaii (we live in Alaska), so meeting vendors was out of the question but Adam replied quickly to emails, calls, or texts. It was like having a family friend take our photos rather than someone that we just met. Adam was there for three hours and within two weeks after the wedding, he had the photo proofs ready. They were great photos and love the moments that he captured! We would definitely recommend Adam to our friends and family.

Since we did not take engagement pictures, my now-hubby and I wished to take some fun "Trash the Dress" pictures in the North Shore. After some online research, we stumbled upon Adam and I'm so glad we did. Adam took us to the beautiful Ke Iki beach, a location near and dear to his heart, and we had a ton of fun playing in the sand and water while he snapped away. He has an easy-going attitude and seemed to truly enjoy his work and office. Less than a week after our shoot, he sent us copies of all his images. Thanks, Adam, for capturing such beautiful moments, even staying extra

Super impressed!!! If you are looking for a photographer in Oahu, pick Adam!
He is very prompt in setting up the session and in turn around time for the digital files and prints!
His work is beautiful and prices are fair!
He knows the island and all the good places for shoots.
He is nice, friendly, relaxed and PATIENT!
We had 5 young children and 10 adults all running in different directions. Despite the chaos, he took great pictures and never got annoyed or flustered! He was open to requests for different shots and poses.
Great experience and memories to last a lifetime!

I was searching (last minute!) for a high quality photographer for engagement pictures while we were on Oahu for a quick vacation. I checked several places, but either the prices were WAY too high, or I wasn't happy with their photography portfolio. Luckily, I didn't settle and found Adam A Palmer Photography- this guy has SKILL! Not only is he extremely talented, but he is SO down to earth, friendly and was super flexible. We had a really good time on the North Shore and got such great photos!! Ive received so many compliments on them, and many people have commented on how beautiful

What can I say about Adam Palmer that hasn't already been said?
We looked and researched long and hard when trying to choose a photographer for our wedding on the windward coast of Oahu. It was difficult making a decision without actually being able to meet with anyone, being that we did not live on the island. Based on reviews, his portfolio and pricing, Adam seemed to be exactly what we were looking for. He made everything easy and was extremely laid back and easy to work with. He arrived early and left late. The pictures that he took were nothing short of amazing. The staged photos that Adam

AMAZING!! The photos turned out beautifully. Better than I ever imagined. Adam really knows his stuff. He is also very prompt at returning emails and had our photos up on the web in just 9 days! If we decide in the future to do a vow renewal or have a family photo shoot we will be coming to Hawaii and using this guy.
Thanks again Adam!!!

My wife and I got married here in Virginia, but wanted to take some wedding photos on a beach in Hawaii. My wife had found Adam through a wedding website.
We contacted Adam and told him what we were looking for. He recommended his sunset package to us. Adam was always available through email (he responds so quickly!).
We met up at a very quiet/secluded beach on the North Shore of Oahu. Adam was early (as were we) and we began shooting. He took so many photos of us and posed us. He was really easy to work with and easy to talk to. He's quite friendly and welcomes any new ideas. At the end
