Family Photos in Manoa's best not well known location

Another holiday shoot with a great family and of course the family dog :)

I think this hidden garden is so beautiful.

While attending college I spend a lot of time here in between classes. Its very calming.

More holiday Family shots

I love it when people consider the animals of the house family members.
Love these two :)

Babe for the Holidays

Our dear friend got the best present of all, a beautiful baby girl. On Christmas eve we dressed her up for her first formal photo shoot. She mainly slept, but what an angel!!

Cute family photos just in time for the holidays

Cute family photos just in time for the holidays. I got lucky with all this rain and my neighbors negligence in keeping up with their mowing of the glass strip in front of their house we were able to get some non-studio shots as well! The kids were super cute which always helps!!

Hnlnow.com and Star Advertisers Pulse of Honolulu. Reggae weekend!

Photos from last weeks Hnlnow.com and Star Advertisers Pulse of Honolulu assignments. One of the things about my job that is both a pulse and a minus is that I get assigned to go to events, clubs, concerts that i would never ever attend of my own choosing. It adds a little more stress to a gig in that i've never been there, don't know where to park, don't know the promotors, and the door guys aren't as familiar with me as when its a place i cover regularly. Its also fun because i'm forced to broaden my horizons, meet new people, and discover some really neat new venues. Last week I got double reggae gigs. One at UH and the other at a fairly new venue that ended up actually being a place i've gone to dozens of times when it was a few different clubs. Its always fun to see how new owners change around the decor and feeling of a location. Talked my roommate into coming along. Even did a short stop off in China Town to show her some of the First Friday monthly art show block party. Shear craziness that I usually avoid like the plague! but she's moving to the mainland in a few weeks and has never been so I figured it was something she should experience before moving. All and all a fun night despite the fact that i'm not a huge fan of reggae.
