THE BIRTH OF IZUMOTO PHOTOGRAPHY--OUR STORY
We love what we do
In the beginning, we were passionate photographer hobbyists with the island of Oahu and our travels as our muse.
The birth of our first child, however, inspired us greater than we could have imagined. Kai's first newborn moments included having a camera in his face. After being born, he endured the torturous baby props and those cool poses where baby has to be sleeping. Kai & Kiari amazes us everyday and motivates us to do more. We see our children learning and growing before our eyes, and feel blessed to be able to treasure the moments we have captured in our images. The excitement, contentment, sillyness, thoughtfulness, and yes, even pouty moments. No matter the sentiment, our children have shown us how precious these moments are. This is why we dedicate our photography business to our children--Kai and Kiari. They are our life and inspiration.
Izumoto Photography provides premier services for families, engagements, and Hawaii wedding photography from all over the world, in addition to the Kama'aina of Oahu and the neighboring islands of Hawaii.
Through the years, we realized that our photos are not just about what you see on the surface, but most importantly, the emotion they exude. It's the emotion you felt when the image was captured. It compels you to relive that moment of feeling love, laughter, or happiness. It's the culmination of your dynamic personalities and genuine love for one another, combined with our artistic vision, that creates unique images— just for you.
We love capturing unhindered emotion and will often tell clients to pretend that we are not there. As a result, this is how we create timeless photos that tell your story, and why our pictures look effortlessly natural. Your personalities plus our style together combined, will produce meaningful heirlooms for you and your family to enjoy for the rest of your lives.
