Stories from the coconut wireless.
“Ikaika was amazing. He has a very chill and calming presence, which was important to us because neither one of us is super comfortable taking photos. Also, it poured almost the entire day of our wedding, which meant a lot of things had to be tweaked to accommodate the weather. Ikaika rolled with punches, again staying chill the whole time, and captured so many beautiful photos despite the weather challenges. I’m so incredibly grateful we found him and would highly recommend using him as your photographer. Thank you, Ikaika!”

<b>If you're looking for an incredibly talented, creative, and kind photographer, look no further than Ikaika.</b> Finding a solid photographer to capture our elopement ceremony was paramount; as a fellow photographer, I combed through site upon site of Kauai wedding photographers. I could not be happier that we chose Ikaika. Our wedding photos are out of this world; breathtaking, dreamy, and magical all on their own. Our photos transport us back to that day — and we will cherish them forever. Ikaika is in a league of his own; if you're looking for a sign to book him, this is it.

He captured our day beautifully, and his photos will be a constant reminder of the love and Aloha we shared that day.

Ikaika was an absolute pleasure to deal with from the moment we came across his website. We loved his work and wanted to have him photograph our wedding on Kauai. On the day he was super professional but also approachable and friendly, putting me and my partner at ease. He also far and above exceeded what we expected to get the best photos and an amazing surprise video for our special day.
I could not recommend Ikaika enough for anyone looking for an amazing photographer who understands how to show the best of you and convey the emotion of your special day.

His wedding and engagement photography is stunning and he has a unique ability to really draw out the love and connection between two people. He’s incredibly collaborative and spares no effort to ensure the entire process and day of shooting are seamless.”

“My husband and I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful photographer to work with for our wedding. Ikaika made the trip down to Mexico for the occasion, and was an absolute gem. While the weather was scorching hot and super humid, Ikaika kept his cool and made us feel super comfortable. The pics turned out better than I could have ever imagined.”

“Ikaika is hands down the most wonderful photographer we have worked with. My wife and I asked him to take our wedding photos this past December and we absolutely love how they turned out. He was on time to our shoot in North Orange County and made us smile the entire time we were with him. He made us feel comfortable and at ease which really shines in the photos. He has a great eye for poses and found the perfect lighting to compliment the day. He got the photos back quickly for us to enjoy right away. Thank you Ikaika!!!”

“I cannot recommend Ikaika highly enough. He photographed our elopement last month and the photos were perfect. They were golden and dreamy and gorgeous. He was professional, flexible when our plans changed, and got the pictures back to us a week earlier than promised. I turned one photo into an announcement and my friend said ‘I honestly think this is the best wedding picture I have ever seen.”
“My husband and I celebrated our elopement with family and friends in Kauai. Ikaika took the most gorgeous photos that we will cherish forever. He was super kind, communicative, and is incredibly talented. I'm so grateful to have had him as our photographer - and would work with him again in a heartbeat!”

“My husband, Alex, and I had the pleasure of working with Ikaika for our very non-traditional wedding in April 2018! Ikaika did a phenomenal job of capturing our most special moments in a few different settings. We highly recommend Ikaika and hope to work with him again someday!”
