The weather was not great and we were limited on where we could shoot due to high surf; yet she still made the photos look amazing. Mahalo Tracey, and we hope to see you again when we visit next.

Yes. The answer is yes. Book Tracey!! She is an amazing photographer and you can tell she really…read morecares about work and truly loves what she does. Not only does she take beautiful photos, but she is so fun to work with! She is a beautiful soul inside and out and a wonder to work with! My husband and I are super awkward in front of the camera but she helped us loosen up and have a good time with the shoot. Definitely check out her Instagram @traceylyn for more proof of her amazing work!

The highest compliment I can pay James and Bev is our house is like a gallery for his artwork. We…read morehave hired JRP on two separate visits to the Big Island-- I mean, you've seen his shots on the Internet, they're amazing. And, each time, we get an amazing moment (or three, or fifty) in time of our family in our happy place. Bev is super-responsive in setting up the shoot and James lets us know the best place to head to to get the shot. In this day of smartphones, it has become harder to sift through the professionals who have an eye and the people who just have a camera that takes pictures. James is certainly the former, and we can't wait to keep returning to JRP to keep getting those great moments captured as our family grows older. Thanks, James. If you head to the Big Island (or anywhere in Hawaii) and you need to hire someone who knows how to handle a lens, call James. Use someone else? I certainly... SHUTTER at the thought. ;)

How does James Rubio only have a handful of reviews here?! He is the BEST! We have had 3 sessions…read morewith him so far - once for our engagement (2013), once when we visited with our 1st daughter (2019), and again once our 2nd daughter was born (2022). We live in Seattle and it is now a thing that whenever we make a trip to the Big Island we book a photoshoot with James! He is extremely kind, and always makes us feel welcome with his warm smile and conversation. He is very good with kids and for family photography too! As a long-time local he has a very in-depth knowledge of the island and photoshoot locations. Each time I've been easily able to email with his wife/business partner to sort out details for our session, and they've always been so helpful in suggesting locations based on any "look" we wanted. All the photos that we get back have been stunning and I always purchase the entire album. We have several very large prints of our photo with James hanging in our house. In my opinion, he could be charging a lot more for his superb quality work. I just LOVE Jame's style! Try him out, he won't disappoint!

We are so grateful we put our trust in her to capture this life changing journey for us. Her artistic eye, professionalism and turn around time are all flawless. We can't wait to get our family portraits done with baby Silas during our next island visit! Mahalo Nui Loa!

Rhianna is amazing in every way! I don't even know where to begin…read more I met Rhianna when picking out a wedding photographer 3 years ago. She took my wedding photos (through another vendor.) Rhianna happily met up with my husband and I two weeks before the wedding in Santa Barbara to go over photo options and do a complete walkthrough. On our wedding day Rhianna was early and ready to go. She made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She has such a fun, bubbly energy about her that it made our nerves go away. Her laughter and positivity is contagious! We laughed more with her than anyone else on our wedding day. Our photos from that day are absolutely stunning! Two years after our wedding, I reached out to Rhianna to have her take family photos with our one year old son. We are relocating away from Southern CA and I wanted special beach photos to remember this time in our lives - so these photos had to be perfect! She spent so much quality time with us to get the photos just right. We got our photos on time as expected as well. It was a great experience! Rhianna is extremely talented and great to work with! I would have her take all of my family photos for the rest of my life if possible! She is easy to communicate with, timely, and delivers high quality work. Her pricing is a steal also. Worth every penny! I highly recommend Rhianna for a wedding, family portraits, or any other important event you want to capture. She puts her all into her clients. Rhianna is the best of the best!

Wow!!! Me and my boyfriend wanted some simple photos of us to hang around our place and at work. I…read morecalled Rhianna up and she walked us through the entire process. We met up and discussed outfits, location, and exactly what it was we wanted. She was so easy to talk to and work with. Not only did she have us laughing but she was completely professional. All we had to do was show up and she did the rest. We got our photos back and were blown away with the results. We got results that not only surpassed her super reasonable rates, but the photos were so incredible as well. She lead us through the entire experience with comfort and ease. It was like hanging out with my best friend for that time. I HIGHLY recommend Rhianna's work to anyone who's looking for not only breath taking photos, but also a relaxed environment where you can be yourself and let your beauty and happiness shine!!! Are there any more fancy descriptive words to throw in here to display me squeeling in happiness right now??!?? :)

He also adds his own artistic flare to some of his images which sets him apart from other photographers. He never complained once even in the unbearable heat during our photo shoot at Lili'uokalani Gardens. He took his time, was patient, and very open to any suggestions we had on different poses we wanted to try. He is very friendly and makes you feel at ease. HIGHLY RECOMMEND him for any of your photography needs. He has a quick turn around time when you receive your final edited photos. It took no more than two weeks for us to get our final edited pictures. A big MAHALO to you Keahi! Thank you for making our special day as memorable as it could be. We our pics and wish you the best!
