Kathy and Derek Same-Day-Edit (Trump/Hale Koa, Waikiki)



It's not so uncommon nowadays to get ready in one hotel, and married in another! Kathy and Derek utilized the best of both worlds by starting off at the Trump Waikiki, and ending up down the street for the ceremony/reception at the Hale Koa. Kathy and her friends were super giggly all morning. I couldn't figure out why! Perhaps it could have been a bunch of cameras in their faces (or the mimosas). Either way, made for good photo/video ; )
Congratulations to you both!

Kristin and Jake Same-Day-Edit (Madison, Wisconsin)




It's so nice to have clients that follow and appreciate our work from thousands of miles away. We had another opportunity to travel this summer for Kristin and Jake's wedding in Madison, Wisconsin. The day started shooting in a church for their traditional ceremony, followed by a walk along the water where Kristin and Jake first met. It was so breathtaking to see the capital building first hand (and be sure to look for the squirrel!).
Congratulations Kristin and Jake!

Before and After Makeup and Hair for Charity!

Charity and Bridesmaids at the beautiful Paradise Bay Resort. 

At Charity's trial, we took this before and after picture to see what a big difference makeup can do.  We love to enhance what the bride already has - Natural Beauty.  For makeup, shades of purple, browns, and golds were dusted on her eyes while keeping everything neutral and radiant.  Her hair was twirled in loose waves in a half up half down do.

Check out her beautiful wedding highlight video captured by our fabulous video team by clicking here!

With Love,

Before and After picture of Rachel!



Rachel's makeup was kept simple.  Tones of beige and gold was applied on her eyes for that soft overall effect. 

Her hair was pinned up in a low off centered chignon designed with these beautiful cymbidium orchids.

Stay tune for more on her wedding video...
Thank you for stopping by!

Chanel and Enoka Married! (Hale Koa, Waikiki)



Chanel and Enoka go wayyyyy back to high school days when Enoka would court Chanel by escorting her to and from all of her classes. It seemed as though no time had passed as Enoka watched Chanel walk down the ceremony isle with the same eyes that quickly watered up at first sight of her in that beautiful wedding dress. This was a long time coming for these two and we were so happy to be part of it.
Congratulations to Chanel and Enoka!

Kharen and Jason Video/Photo Same-Day-Edit *with reaction cam (Hale Koa, Waikiki)



It's been awhile since we have posted a reaction cam from our same-day-edit. But after seeing Kharen and Jason's tears first hand, I knew I had to share this! We strive for all of our couples to smile, laugh, and cry when they watch our videos. If we can convey all of these emotions in our work = success! ....It's also no secret either that we have shot at the Hale Koa in the past.... but we challenge ourselves by making it different.....every.... single .....time (ceremony btw. was at Keahi Lagoon). Enjoy the surprise same-day-photo slideshow at the end! We will also be posting the SDE w/out the reaction cam shortly!
Congratulations Kharen and Jason!!!

Charzelle and James Married at Laie Temple! (Northshore, Oahu)



Charzelle and James's wedding was our first Mormon wedding. The interesting part : no outsiders are allowed to witness the ceremony inside of the temple. That means no pictures or video : ( So, we had to be a little creative with the shooting to say the least. Charzelle and James love to dance (can you tell?) and we had fun with the getting ready and formals. Their friends were clowns too, and we loved it.
Congratulations Charzelle and James!

Chantelle and Kawika Same-Day Edit! (Kihei, Maui)





Over a year and a half ago, Isle Media participated in the Maui Bridal Expo. We had a grande price giveaway and Chantelle happened to be the lucky winner. : ) Although we have shot in Maui many times, we were very excited that their ceremony was at the historical Keawalai Congregational Church. That was a first for us. Chantelle and Kawika had an ENORMOUS reception. Lots of great live music and great vibes, it was too bad we had to come home!
Congratulations Chantelle and Kawika!
