Anthony,

On behalf of Eve & I, you the man! The pictures look great and the experience we had that day still brings Eve & I smiles and laughs. The wind, messy hair, crowded beach, rambunctious Abby and your positive attitude made it all worth while.
Thanks for the great pictures, but most of all great memories. I'm definitely referring you to all of our friends & family. We're definitely going to call you again the next time we set off for Hawaii, hopefully by that time we will have another addition to the family!

Cheers & Aloha,- Kenny, Eve and Abby - San Francisco, Ca.

Hi Anthony,

The pictures arrived on the following day you sent them. THANK YOU so much for sending them by express mail. We really enjoyed looking at each and every picture you took. We love them all!! Each one is a favorite one and it'll be hard to choose a few to enlarge!! Capturing our feelings and emotions in a picture is worth more than a million words!! This was exactly what we both wanted so we can treasure them for a lifetime. The time we had there in Manoa Valley and at Sandy Beach will always be a memorable one! Thank you Anthony for all your hard work and time in dedicating yourself in what you love and sharing it with us. Again, we will definitely recommend your professional services to all our friends and we will be contacting you in the near future for more of your exceptional artistic photography service for our wedding day!!

Lots of Aloha!, Rey and Lyn

Dear Anthony,
God's abundant blessing on you and your wife in 2007. I know it was a difficult job for you to work with my " high maintenance " family, but I must tell you the photos you captured of my three sons is a priceless treasure for Scott and Me. Thank you for giving of your gift and striving to always do your best. You are a very special man and world is better with you in it!!

Hi Anthony, We are very happy with our pictures! The images are very much what we expected and they are representative of everything we loved about the pictures on your web site. If anything, I would say that our expectations were exceeded. Thank you again for taking so much time with us, and for being so patient and making us feel so comfortable. The photos are once-in-a-lifetime images and they mean a lot to us. You were truly able to capture something that isn't reflected in any other pictures we have. We have too many favorites to name and are currently trying to decide which images to get prints of to display as art in our house. All of the pictures are also very flattering - in addition to the emotion you were able to capture, I think you also brought out our best physical traits. While I would agree that some of the images are better than others, I definitely think you were overly critical in your assessment that we have "some" winners! I understand that you probably have different criteria in assessing your work, but to me all of our pictures are priceless! Thanks again for everything, and have a happy New Year!

Adam and Barbara Kline - Norman, OK


Dear Anthony,
Thank you for your, highly-professional, work with me on shooting portfolio pics. Your ability to coach me as well as the quality of the photos gave me a great deal of confidence in the project. Amazingly, my agency called me for an audition within three weeks of submission of the photos, I was really surprised!
Perhaps the best thing about working with you is that you showed how much you cared about me as a person, not just a subject for photographs and that soulfulness came right through in the shots we did.
Thanks again...I owe you one (or two or three...)

Aloha Anthony, I received the pictures and disk. My mom was so pleased with them. My sister cried tears of joy when she saw the pictures of her and her family. We can't wait to print larger prints and frame and mat them as Christmas gifts. Thank you for your lovely work.

Hello Anthony, Thank you so much... We received the photos and we agree... there are definitely some we'll be enlarging and framing. We'll definitely be recommending you to any friends/family planning a trip to Hawaii. Peace to you! Sincerest thanks,
Sera and Joe, Ontario, Canada

Our deepest gratitude for the outstanding photographs you shot of our family. You managed to capture each one of us at exactly the right moment. When one looks at the pictures you took, one can definitely see our personalities and feel the love and sincerity in our hearts. The location was awesome and your patience, kindness, understanding and laughter made the photo session fun and relaxing for each of us. Every time we look at our photos, especially the ones openly displayed in our home, we will have you to thank. Again, you have given us a portfolio of lasting memories and for that we will forever be grateful. God bless you,

Candace, Butch and Gregory, Torrence, CA


You are wonderful Anthony! There really were some winners in the bunch! Thank you. I think the thing that is most special about your work is that you don't sell photographs, you sell art. You treat every picture like it's your last, and you never settle for anything less than beautiful. I could feed off of your creativity, and I felt relaxed the whole time. Infarct, I had a lot of fun the whole time. The "art" you gave me had feeling and meaning (which is just what you were shooting for), and I was really glad to be a part of it. Thanks again for your artistic eye! -
Sarah, Davey NE

Anthony: Just a note to let you know we received our photos yesterday, and we're very pleased! Thanks so much for all of your hard work and most of all your patience. The four of us had a lot to overcome to get the quality images you captured, and we appreciate the fact that you worked with us instead of just taking quick snapshots. If we're ever on the island again, we would be glad to commison your services again. Mahalo!!!

The Ellisons, Tennessee


Hi Anthony!! I just wanted to say Thank You!!!! Over that past two years of working with you I have learned sooo much... not only about the technical aspects of photography, but about making everyone feel comfortable, and making every shot count. It's all about the energy, and you always give 110%. You have a great eye, and treat every photograph as a work of art. Thank you for the inspiration and encouragement! Thank you for letting me borrow your cameras and lenses!!! I really appreciate the time that I have spent working with you, and everything that you have done for me.
I'm going to miss you, and I can't wait to work with you again in the future!! Aloha, Allison

Hi Anthony! We received our photos today and we were so pleased! To be honest, I wasn't expecting to get that many fabulous photos because of my little boy's meltdown, but I was pleasantly surprised! I just wanted to thank you for your communication, patience, and beautiful work. We're very excited to share the photos with the rest of the family! Mahalo!

Elizabeth, Pasadena, California


We had such a nice time and have memories to last forever. But I do have to share something with you that makes our photos more special. We had no idea at the time- but you actually photographed the "three" of us, yes, "three". Just four days after we returned home, we discovered that our first baby is on the way. So now we have even more reason to cherish our photos! Thank you for the experience and your kindness will always be remembered.

Molly Herrick, Marshall, Minnesota


Anthony it was great working with you, we are so happy with the pictures they are a work of art. You have such a wonderful eye Keep up the good work!

You were very specific and detailed to achieve perfection with every picture taken. You are very artistic and it shows in your work. Thank-you for showing me the beauty of Hawaii and what it has to offer. I would love to work with you again in the future. I highly recommend you as a photographer. Anyone who comes to your web site will understand what I mean by the beauty that lies within. Again thank-you!
