    Getting Around Honolulu

    I love Honolulu. There’s something about it that reminds me of New Orleans, where I lived and worked for a decade. It’s overgrown, hot & humid, unkempt in places. I love that about both cities. It also shares a quirkiness with New Orleans. It’s more subtle. New Orleans tends to wear its freak flag on its sleeve, but you don’t need to look too deep to notice island life has its own unique style. Take personal transportation. The forms and sizes are varied. Personal style expressed via helmets, or not, flip flops, shorts, and even the vehicle themselves.

  • Rogo Family Portrait

    At the east end of the Waipio Valley, along a mile long stretch of black sand beach, at the base of a 1500 foot cliff, with waterfalls spilling into the ocean, in the late afternoon, the light is just so… it’s the perfect time and space for a Rogo family portrait.

  • Pa Ka Makani Farm

    I recently toured Pa Ka Makani Farm in Hawaii. My friends Anne and Andrew Strawbridge have created something special on The Big Island.  Kudos to them for acting as great stewards of the earth by envisioning this sustainably designed and built slice of paradise.
