I booked Ikaika about a hidden proposal in Haena Beach Park a month before proposing in March 2025. I was unsure about location to propose so Ikaika consulted me on a phone call about potential locations and times available. He was very detailed and thorough about pros and cons and tailored his service towards my preferences. Ikaika also offered back up time slots in case other circumstances changed our scheduled shoot. Ikaika was responsive throughout the day of the photoshoot. Proposing is stressful enough and Ikaika made the coordination process seamless. Our photos came out incredible and better than I could have imagined! Ikaika captured the moment perfectly and I am so happy to have these photos to reflect and share for the rest of my life! Post proposal photoshoot went well and Ikaika has a great photography eye to combine the beauty of the scenery and his clients. We took up the full hour and took any photo requests we had. Ikaika delivered 8 sneak peak photos to us through email the day after the proposal. The rest of our photos were sent 2-3 weeks later.

We're so happy to have these memories preserved in such an artistic way.
