Since moving to Hawaii, I’ve been blessed with so many great opportunities to collaborate with extremely creative people. One is the wonderful crew at Disfunkshion Magazine. I am just so in love and impressed with the heart behind this magazine.

Disfunkshion is a bohemian style magazine targeted at young women. It focuses not only on fashion- but art, music, advice, life, community, and spirituality. It has truly been an inspiration to me. Check out the website here but stop in your nearest Barnes & Noble store to pick up an issue. I’ve always felt there is nothing like holding pages in your hands. Nothing.

Below is one of four “Get This Look” shoots I did with the talented Disfunkshion team and the absolutely stunning model, Gabby Harrington.

Also, check out this awesome behind the scenes video my friend and ever so talented videographer, Andrew Tran, shot.

Andre + Vicka’s Honolulu Wedding

Vicka and Andre might be one of the nicest couples I have ever met. The first day I met them, we decided to grab coffee and discuss the details of their wedding. This turned into hours of chatting about their long distance relationship, my transition moving to Hawaii, how much we love frozen yogurt, discovering that we are neighbors (yes, they live right down the street), and the firm decision that we should all hang out the very next day for drinks and more laughs. Since then, they have invited Bobby and I over for game nights, tennis matches, and even recycling debates in their hot tub. Needless to say, they have quickly become two of my favorite people. Looking at these photos makes me especially happy because these aren’t just photos of clients… these are photos of my friends.

I was thrilled when Vicka and Andre agreed to do a first-look before the ceremony. We explored Chinatown and happened upon a parade. It turned out to be one of my favorite photographs:

The ceremony was sweet and intimate with their parents and siblings. Oh yeah, and it was on a sailboat!
