"They exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are so grateful to have these beautiful memories to cherish forever."
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Karma Hill Photography for an engagement photoshoot. I must say that the experience was amazing! The photoshoot was a surprise for my fiancé, and our photographer did an incredible job of making the whole process smooth and enjoyable for us both.
From the moment we met our photographer we knew we were in good hands. She was friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera."

What time of day is best for portraits? Morning or sunset?
Morning and sunset are both great times of day for portraits so it really depends on the look you want for your pictures. Morning sessions give a brighter more tropical look and it’s usually less windy! Sunset sessions create a warmer light with a beautiful Oahu sunset in the background.
