Hi there!
My name is Rosie and I'm the personality behind the camera.
I am a full-time MFA student at University of Hawaii at Manoa. I am also a model, UGC creator/content creator and Substitute Teacher.
I started my photography business in 2018 in the hopes of connecting with others and sharing their unique stories. I love the outdoors and am always up for an adventure!
Many of my clients return for additional sessions because they love the images I create for them and know that they will always have fun with me! I am so lucky to call some of my clients lifelong friends now. For example my connection to the Louis family started as a booked maternity session. Since their first session with me, they booked me for their daughter's first birthday, a family session and a headshot session for Jasmyn. The Ezzell's started as a maternity session and then I was able to capture their new family of three right before they were stationed off-island. The Mendoza's were my FIRST wedding and I had an amazing time with them. Now I get to see their love and family grow through social media. I absolutely love following my clients' journeys and establishing healthy and long relationships with them.
FYI --- I am based out of Honolulu, HI (Oahu) but am open to travel. I hope that you will consider me for your photography needs!
Much love,
Rosie

"Rosie is seriously the best! She did my maternity pictures and our Christmas pictures! So fun to work with and the photos always turn out better than you could’ve imagined! So sad we’re moving and won’t be able to have her do our pictures next year!"
- Sabrina Ezell
"How can I express how amazing Rosie is! From beginning to end she’s so organized. Always on time, I could always rely on her. Which is one thing I found to be very important while planning a wedding, she never added stress to our wedding planning, she made me feel at ease. That’s just a little bit about her, her photos are out of this world! What we expected was amazing, what we got was STUNNING & BREATHTAKING!! Her attention to detail and capturing every moment that appeared! My only regret was not hiring her for the ENTIRE day! We love ya Rosie! She was not only our vendor but became a friend we will always cherish. We can’t wait to work with her again!!
All our love,
Newlyweds Mr. & Mrs. Mendoza"
