“Kalani and Kaelyn are the ultimate dream team and we are so grateful to have had them capture our wedding! I have known Kalani for almost 8 years now and his photography skills as well as his ability to adapt to any situation has always stuck out to me. When my husband and I were deciding who we wanted to shoot our wedding in Hawaii, it was a no-brainer to reach out. And we are so thankful that we did. :) Kalani was stoked to shoot our island wedding and made everything possible. From the initial email to the day of our wedding, we felt so lucky to have such special people capture one of the biggest days of our lives. And they exceeded every expectation- the photos are a perfect depiction of us. As a bonus to the priceless photos, they are two of the sweetest, most genuine people who only add goodness to the moment. I give my highest recommendation to WWK for anyone needing a photographer.”

“Kalani & Kaelyn- the absolute power team!
My husband and I made the best decision of our lives when choosing Kalani and his beautiful fiancé Kaelyn to shoot our engagement & wedding photos! From start to finish they delivered professionalism, organization and the most amazing photos we could have ever asked for. I lost count with how many people asked who did our photos!
During our engagement shoot they helped us feel relaxed and made it a light and very enjoyable experience! And boy for the actual wedding day, they ensured that we felt relaxed and not stressed when it came to snapping photos throughout the day!
If you are reading this, please take my word. Look no further, this will be a decision that you will be glad you made for the rest of your life! The kindest people & the raddest photos you could imagine!
Thank you Kalani & Kaelyn for creating a portfolio of photos that we will cherish for our entire lives! ”

“Okay, y’all have no idea how amazing Kalani is. He will become your best friend right away. He was the sweetest, most genuine and real person me and Connor have ever met. And don’t even get me started on his fiancé Kaelynn. They are just the best types of human. I always say I would get remarried all over again just to have them be apart of our wedding and get to see all the amazing work that comes out of the wedding and engagement photos. We laughed and talked life and genuinely made friends for life. Every major life event I’m having Kalani and Kaelynn shoot (whether they want to or not haha). Hiring them was an absolute no brainer, make the same decision and enjoy the freaking mind blowing photos that come from it.

“My wife Mary and I were married in February of 2021 in South Orange County. We inquired with Kalani to see if he could handle our quickly approaching day. From the ceremony at a local church, to short-distance cliff side post ceremony photos and finally our reception nearby. He took it on with grace.

What we loved most about Kalani was his “yes” mentality. Kalani and his small team make things happen. They have their own vision and come prepared all while being adaptive and in tune with our needs.

They were quiet, graceful and aware in our church for the ceremony, snapping priceless photos of all of the important moments without us even knowing they were there.

Kalani coordinated our wedding party photos like a seasoned veteran. At 22/23 years old many would likely wrongly assume an unqualified college aged boy behind the lens, but Kalani is far from that. He’s a consummate professional in all aspects of the term.

We have already recommended Kalani to a number of friends and family for their weddings, and guests of our wedding have reached out for Kalani’s information. A tall tale sign and instant verification that he is the real deal, and someone you can count on to capture everything you’ll want to remember for your special day. We are so thankful of him. ”

“Kalani and Kaelyn are the only photographers we will ever use or recommend to anyone. They have an ability to make you feel so comfortable and unguarded, which comes through in the most beautiful candid and natural photos. After talking to a few photographers in 2019 for our 2021 wedding, we knew right away Kalani was the one we wanted in charge of our wedding memories. When we originally booked, we were planning a 120 person affair at a local venue in Laguna Beach. Cut to late 2020, our 2021 wedding plans were looking a lot different. I texted Kalani and asked him if we could change everything except the date, and he was immediately understanding and accommodating. We ended up having a 15 person wedding weekend on Catalina Island. Kaelyn and Kalani arrived the morning of the wedding, stayed with our bridal party in the penthouse, and blended into our family for the day and into the night. We were not even back from our mini-moon before we got our sneak peek. I still look at our photos every day, and everyone that has seen them always comments on how naturally beautiful the photos are and how much emotion came through in his work. We have nothing but great things to say, if you’re on the fence, jump over it. You won’t regret having this wonderful couple craft your memories!”

“Kalani and Kaelyn,

Now that we have had some time to digest our special day and think about how it all went, we cannot stop looking at the photos and reliving it. You both put as at ease when decisions needed to be made, and you coordinated all of the little things we hadn’t thought of. When I show people the photos, the first thing out of their mouths EVERY time is, “Wow, those are stunning”... and they aren’t talking about us!

Family members frequently reference how lovely you both are, not only for your premier level photography, but the general aura you brought to our wedding day. You both listened to requests we had, and also brought immaculate ideas. This was clearly not your first rodeo. I don’t care where someone is getting married, it would be in their best interest to acquire your services.

Kalani - we have been friends for years and it was a blessing to have you both there. For our group who hadn’t met you, they quickly felt like you both were family and I imagine it is the same for any wedding you cover.

Sincerely, thank you so much for making the trip, parting from Knox and Oakley which I imagine couldn’t have been easy, and capturing stunning photos from our big day. Of the decisions we made throughout the wedding planning process, getting you guys sticks out as one of the best, probably the best.

Thank you both again for everything. ”

“When we decided to do an engagement shoot we knew exactly who we wanted to shoot it and that was Kalani. There are many photographers out there but how many *exceptional* photographers are there that you know of? We want to save you the search! BOOK HIM. You will not be disappointed!!!

Kalani has such an eye for capturing a moment and there’s a uniqueness in it because of his freelance background. He scopes out all the best spots and you can tell he is really just down for a solid adventure. You watch him work and you can see the wheels turn and his creativity unfold. His shots extend far past the typical poses, catering to each couples vibe but he has a plan to guide the session so you don’t ever feel awkward or ask, “what should we do now/how should we pose for this?”

His soon to be wife tags along quite often and she is always helping pose or bouncing off ideas on different shots to try. Her perspective is such an added bonus….they’re a great little team.

Kalani is authentic and genuine, on time, down to earth and you can truly tell he loves what he does because his work reflects that genuine and authentic love. You walk away feeling like you’re really good friends too because of how rad he is. It’s refreshing that it’s not just transactional as wedding planning can be with vendors.

When he sent us our gallery we were floored with excitement. He took some of our favorite photos we’ve ever had together and we’ve used these photos for practically anything and everything about our wedding. We cannot stress enough how important it is to set aside a budget for photography. It is worth the investment because you’ll have them forever.

Whether you’re getting married or doing an engagement shoot, you’ll be in fantastic hands. Your jaw will D R O P when you see your gallery and you will probably book him for any other major life events that require photo documentation because he’s just that freakin good. I know we will be in contact again very soon.”

“Kalani is the BEST wedding photographer there is. When we were first referred to him, we instantly fell in love with his style. We reached out to him right away and booked him literally 15 minutes after meeting him. From the engagement shoot to the wedding— Kalani and his second shooter, Kaelyn was so easy to work with. They made us feel comfortable, showed us how to do all the cute poses, and of course, took awesome candids. They both maintained professionalism and Kalani always stayed in contact with us. The results, THE RESULTS! were absolutely AMAZING!! It’s like he just knew our angles, understood our style and what we were looking for. Thank you so much Kalani and Kaelyn for being apart of our special day. We HIGHLY recommend hiring Kalani. You won’t regret it. ”

“Kalani and Kaelyn took our elopement pictures and they are the most gorgeous pictures I could have asked for. Kalani is a true artist behind the camera, he has a beautiful vision and it leads to absolutely gorgeous pictures. If you have the opportunity to be photographed by him, DO IT. I cannot rave about Kalani and Kaelyn enough, they are the perfect couple to take your pictures. They are such kind humans and will make you feel comfort and ease and the pictures will show it. I am forever grateful for Kalani and Kaelyn for taking my wedding pictures.”

“There should absolutely be no hesitation when choosing a wedding photographer! My husband and I got married in October 2020... cheers to COVID weddings am I right? Despite the madness we call wedding planning, Kalani and Kaelynn were so flexible, understanding, and professional throughout the entire experience.
Kalani is literally the whole package - especially when that includes his beautiful fiance Kaelynn ;) From the very beginning, you have this overwhelming sense of calmness, excitement, and trust all at once. And to have that with your photographers from the first phone call, all the way through your final song at your wedding night, is truly incomparable. Our engagement shoot was SUPER fun too! They captured everything beautifully!! We HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who is looking for organic captures of moments you want to cherish for a lifetime. ”
