Keoni Kitagawa
I'm relaxed, I'm not too bossy, and I'll stay out of your way. I believe that wedding photography doesn’t have to be safe and boring. I don’t want to just give you photos, I want to give you works of art that will blow your mind, that communicate the essence of who you are, that tell stories beyond what you see, and that move complete strangers to stop and stare.
8 Reasons you will love working with me

Weddings are supposed to be fun and I believe the photographer should be too! Whether it's the wedding party taking shots while getting ready, the inappropriate jokes that slip out when friends get together, or crazy ideas you want to do during portraits, we encourage it all.

Cliche photos make me bored. So I am not afraid to try something different and I'm always looking for a new perspective to keep things fresh. The best part about doing this for 10 years, experience has given me the ability to let my creative instincts take over.
Having done weddings for 10+ years, i've seen it all from momzillas, drunk uncles, crying babies, or simply a wedding party with ADHD. I've seen it all and know how to work with any situation so the day can keep moving along.

Couples can get nervous about the portrait session because most couples are taking portraits of themselves in their daily life (no judgment if you do). I keep the session relaxed with simple games or directions that I know work that helps make the time fly by.
Your wedding photos shouldn't be an anniversary gifts. I personally guarantee to get the photos to you 4-6 weeks.

Client Reviews
At our wedding, Keoni and his team were all courteous professionals. His team demonstrated the perfect mixture of laid back, fun, and directive. The picture I am trying to paint is that when you work with Kpix, you work with individuals who not only capture your wedding day but enrich the entire experience.

When I saw Keoni's photography his style and originally was what caught my eye! I love great quality photography with a contemporary look. I felt his photos depicted grace and style as well. He was easy to work with and his prices were very reasonable. He also was a great listener when I asked for certain requests and he went with the ideas that I had as well which we greatly appreciated.

We chose Keoni as our wedding photographer based on his stellar reviews, reasonable price, and high quality photos. I found that a lot of Hawaii wedding photography was too expensive and/or too cheesy, but his photos looked authentic and impressive. I liked that his photos showed variety, which led me to believe he took care to adapt his photography to the place and people around him. He did not disappoint.
