It’s been a little more than a month since I came back from Hawaii and I’m still not done going through all of the pictures I took. This is the continuation of my first post on Hawaii – be on the lookout for a third post soon!

Coffee Trees in Kona – Coffee beans are the seeds of the red berries (you can see some on the far left side of the photo)
I just got back from my first trip ever to Hawaii. The 2 week long adventure was amazing – Hawaii has to be one of the most naturally beautiful places in the world. There are so many things to photograph in a small area whether it’s gorgeous beaches, lush rain forests, delicious food, interesting people, or mountain landscapes.
No lie, it was hard to take a bad picture in Hawaii. Of course I had my Canon 5dmkII and all of the associated gear in tow to document the experience. Here is the first batch of photos from the trip (and a video!) Be on the lookout for more in the future!

Nita and Joe got married a month ago on the beautiful Eastern Shore of Maryland among many family and friends. Despite some challenges with the weather, everyone managed to have a great time.
I’ve shot a lot of weddings and I can definitely say that this reception was the most fun one I have ever been to. The location and food were amazing, the live band was rocking, and the dance floor was packed for the whole night. Lets just say that this family knows how to have fun!
