Anita and Jody Grigg, Ke Iki beach Oahu wedding

I had a great time shooting Anita and Jody's wedding here on the North shore of Oahu. Rainbows are fairly common this time of year on this side of the island.

It was a beautiful day. Pastor Ron Valencia officiated at the wedding.

Jody is a an amazing landscape photographer. Click here to see his work. Always flattering when other photographers hire me to shoot their weddings.

The cloud that brought the rainbow in also brought a quick shower. Jody is doing his best to keep Anita's hair style intact. I guess chivalry isn't dead.

My approach to wedding photography

If I had to describe my goal for every photo shoot it would be to create timeless photos. I want all of your portraits to look better every year. Every couple of years there are new trends in photography. Right now I see a lot of extreme color processing-- artificial vintage looks, etc. It is kind of fun to look at but I avoid it in my work because when the trend has played itself out you don't want to be stuck with wedding photos that look really dated.

Waimea Valley Lotus in the Sun-- Print give away

Just got a little time to relax after the busy summer wedding season and it's time to do another print give away. The prints are archival giclee prints hand signed on water color paper. (6.5x9.5 inches-- mattes perfectly to a 11x14.) They are almost free ; ) All you have to do is link to my website and or blog (www.adamapalmer.com/adamapalmer.blogspot.com) from your blog or website and send me a note telling me your address. If you like the idea of a print but don't love either of my lotus in the sun picks just stay tuned as I have a few more print giveaways coming in the next little while. I have some really nice turtle pics I've been meaning to edit and print up. The giveaway is while supplies last. I'll make a note in the blog title when I've run out of prints. Thanks!!
