HAWAII’S PREMIER PORTRAIT & PERSONAL  BRANDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Esther

Hey there, I´m Esther and love capturing the essence of YOU

I’m a portrait photographer located on the stunning island of Oahu in Hawaii. With over 10 years of experience, I’ve been capturing life’s moments through my camera lens. My real passion lies in encouraging people to chase their dreams and embrace their true purpose – a force that has the power to change our world one step at a time.

I’ve been through moments when I couldn’t fully see my own beauty and strength as a woman. That’s why I’m so dedicated to creating portraits that capture these timeless qualities within you. At Captured Imagery, I offer an experience that helps you rediscover and explore your inner self. We all have a unique and valuable light that shines from within and that is what I want to see, celebrate and document with you.

In addition to my photography journey, I’m a wife and a mom of twins. During my free moments, you’ll find me recharging in nature and enjoying quality time with my family and our adorable pom puppy.

If you’re curious about what drives my passion, take a peek at a blog post where I share bits of my personal journey. I’m genuinely excited to witness, celebrate, and preserve your individual radiance through my lens.

🥰What a magical experience!! From beginning to end, I felt like the Queen that I almost forgot that I was- that I AM! The proof is in care given from day one, and in the stunning images...to feel like and look like a million dollars is a rare opportunity. To be reminded of the beauty that I am, both inside and out, is an indescribable feeling! Highly recommended...a once in a lifetime opportunity to beautifully capture yourself in your radiant full bloom. A well-deserved tribute to self! Thank you for making this possible, Queen!

Esther is a very talented photographer! We had a fun session where I brought my cat for photos and it was a great experience. Here studio is beautiful with many backdrops and props and she is very experienced with posing her model in front of her camera. I highly recommend! Thank you Esther for the great experience and super fast delivery on photos!

Esther was such a pleasure to work with! I am not too comfortable in front of the camera, but she made me feel at ease and her coaching through the photo session were very helpful. And her pictures of my maternity shoot came out amazing!! hardest part was choosing my favorite photos because there were so many and I am usually really critical of my pictures. I 100% recommend Esther if you considering taking maternity photos or any photos for that matter!

Esther was very professional from the start! Something unique about her photography is that she really tries to get to know you before the photoshoot so that everything goes well on the date. She met with me prior and asked me questions about my tastes, down to the type of music I like to listen to! This let her really capture my style and aesthetic. On the day of the shoot, she was prepped and brought snacks + Perrier for us! I would definitely recommend Esther!
