This new year marks a new start for REDHEARTPHOTOGRAPHY.
Let me know if you like the changes I have made so far.
Things to look forward to: iSite, a new portfolio compatible with your mobile browser, my new WEDDING site, slideshows at receptions, and much more!
So how about I write about my life…
My kids have been home the past 2 weeks on spring break. We have gotten to go to the beach a couple times (once with my brother and his shell collection), hiked up to a waterfall, bought a old Bronco (the kids LOVE riding in it with the top off!), and Tj passed his first belt test last week at taekwondo. 
I just realized that this past weekend was my last free weekend until mid-JULY!
Last weekend, I photographed some amazing style, one part fashion show, two parts wedding. There was never a dull moment on Kanoe and Justin’s wedding day.
Kanoe, daughter of China Uemura , is what I would call a fashionista. Every detail, from her toes (Gucci!) to her hair (pink!) were rocking. I was so in love with her dress and all her bride’s maids!
The groom was a really nice guy I have know for over 20 years. [Scary, I can say I have known people that long now!] Justin wore some sweet brown and white checked Vans slip-ons. I would have worn some too, but I prefer to go barefoot at the beach. Also, if this guy looks familiar, it is because he is in OLIVIA the Band.
Thanks to Kanoe and Justin for letting me be a part of your very rad wedding!
xoxo, Marina
My brand spanking new Nikon D3 arrived just in time for my “Trash the Dress” session with winner Kate from Seattle. We met up in Waikiki and drove to a few stunning locations in the south east corner of O’ahu.
Her dress was still in great condition from her wedding day, but now may need a good cleaning to get the salt and sand out! Thanks again Kate for being such a daring bride.

Rachel and Ali’s wedding this past weekend was AMAZING. Hands down the most interesting and crazy event I have had the privledge of photographing.
Early in the day we had a session in San Francisco’s Chinatown, then we were off to the Bentley Reserve for a traditional Persian ceremony and a feast of a reception.
Prints will be available for purchase by the 15th on the print site.
A special thanks to Terry Chay. Terry is a resident in San Francisco and he graciously loaned me his Nikon D3 for the day. I must say that am so impressed with that camera. The low light capabilities were unbelievable. i actually took my flash off of my camera, for the reception.
