Kualoa Ranch Paliku Gardens wedding

Being from Portland, we do not shy away from rainy weddings. Kimberly warned us that it would be rainy at Paliku Gardens at Kualoa Ranch in Oahu. Well, we got more than we bargained for. The good thing about different weather conditions is that you can some amazing photos that normally you do not have a chance to. Kind of making lemonade if life gives …

I met Sara at a Maui wedding I photographed. After seeing Jennie and Curan’s wedding pictures, they contacted me to photograph their wedding at China Harbor Restaurant in Seattle. We immediately hit it off. It was not until couple days before that I met Joe and immediately liked him. He is Italian and since I am also Mediterranean, I loved his upbeat personality! Asian weddings …
