I loved how Blink Photography had a kiosk at our hotel and had multiple Q codes place all over the resort. I never imagined to take such beautiful family pictures on our vacation. I honestly took a chance since all my kids were with me and that does not happen to often. What a an amazing idea it is to take your entire family on a photo shoot with such beautiful scenery and to be able to pick a beautiful background was a winner for me. Please ask for Ikaika, he was so much fun and made us laugh so much that our photos turned put so beautiful with our genuine smiles. I am always so hard on myself when it comes to pictures because I always feel uncomfortable. However, Ikaika made our photo session so easy and naturally fun that our photos came out amazing. Thank you so much! We will truly always remember the time we spent with you (Ikaika) on our vacation.The Marriot Ko'Olina Beach Resort :)

We used Blinnk previously for our baby moon photos and had a decent experience. This time we were taking photos for our anniversary. Booking was easy. Photographer, Alfy was very friendly and worked well with our group. We spent about an hour moving around the resort. Poses and location were great. The process of taking the photos was great. My concerns were the next day. Photo packages were pricy but I expected that. But they ranged from $600 for 20 photos to somewhere around $1300 for all of them. A bit more than I expected but what can you do? My bigger concern and where I can't fully recommend them, is that none of the photos appeared to have had any editing. The colors seemed to be off, some were washed out. I was able to upload them and make some corrections on my own. But I just didn't feel like the quality was there for the prices they were charging. The staff member that was supposed to show us the photos didn't show up on time. We ended up having to view them online and make decisions about what to get on our own. When I did get ahold of the person about the viewing, she wasn't at all helpful. I ended up having to speak to the manager, just to figure out what the online viewing process was as the sales person could not explain it. I would be fine with the price if the quality was there, but unfortunately it wasn't. But we did buy the entire package because there was no way to get the moment back. Next time I'd look for other options.

We had a family appt with Blinnk at the Ko Olina Marriott this past week. Our expected photographer had an unexpected health emergency and so at first we were left waiting and wondering if we would be able complete our photographs. The whole family (grandparents, parents, kids) had all gotten ready which was no small feat, so the late start was at first frustrating for us. The manager quickly stepped in though and saved the day. With grace and professionalism he made what was at first a tough experience, ultimately a success. He was outstanding at managing the various needs and comfort levels of different family members, particularly a very squirmy 4 year old boy :). The true sign of their professionalism and focus on customer support was when we went to view the photos, everything was complimentary! We were shocked and grateful as it turned a tough experience into now a memorable one we can look fondly back on with our vacation. Thank you Blinnk!

We recently had a family vacation in Ko Olina and we booked a session before the luau. Alfie sat down with our group a couple days later and went through the photos. They turned out amazing. Alfie was patient with us as he walked us through the packages. Definitely not an easy thing with as big of a group we had. He also kept the littlest ones entertained while we went through all the photos which was a great help. Everyone was very professional and did a great job on the photos! Thank you, Alfie!

We took a family trip to Hawaii and our resort did not have the photography services we wanted. Despite not being a guest at their facility, they were so helpful! We had a great experience and we were thrilled with our proofs. It was hard to whittle down our choices!

Worst portrait experience in 25 years. Avoid wasting your time and skip scheduling an appointment with Blinnk. We Scheduled an appt for 8 am Monday April 22nd, received email confirmation and detailed instructions. Got seven people (including toddlers and grandparents) up early, dressed up and to the meeting spot. Photographer Alfie was a no-show. Had the gall to make up multiple excuses for horrific customer service saying he had car trouble then when I asked why he didn't text or call us he back-tracked and said it was an automated confirmation and he didn't get the appointment notice. Alfie clearly didn't care and is a terrible representative of Blinnk Photography and should be fired. Marriott should be horrified at having a vendor like this represent your brand.

Be sure to visit Blinnk photography located within the Marriott Ko'Olina Beach Club resort for family pictures! They are the best and get so many great shots around the resort and beach area which are so beautiful. Extremely friendly and accommodating and easy to communicate with.

On a vacation with my children celebrating the end of my cancer journey, I wanted to capture the memories we were creating. I saw an ad for Blinnk Photography at the Marriott resort and called for our free session. We had an amazing experience with our photographer, Alfy!! He was professional, creative, personable and open to suggestions. We didn't feel rushed or pressured and his photos were INCREDIBLE!! Alfy made our experience wonderful! We will definitely use Blinnk again... specifically Alfy :)

We used Blinnk Photography for a photo session at the Marriott Ko Olina Beach Club. Alfy was our photographer and did a great job. He made us feel comfortable and made it a FUN experience during our shoot with him. My wife is not big on having her picture made but Alfy rose to the challenge. And the final edited pictures were better than our wedding photos. If you are traveling to Oahu and considering doing a professional photo session, I would highly recommend using Blinnk and requesting Alfy to do your session.

We had the BEST experience at Ko Olina location. From start to finish. The manager to coordinate our shoot was fabulous. Our soon to be son in law was proposing to our daughter along with us having family portraits taken. Not only was this coordinated with ease but the shots were amazing. Our photographer was an amazing ray of joy and light during the shoot and it's reflected in the shots we received. Not only did the engagement go off without a hitch we have it captured on photo with just the most amazing photos. And with time and attention given to us. I cannot say enough about this team. If you are in this are BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY. You will not regret it. The shoot was downright fun and we have the most amazing photos that brought tears to my eyes and we can treasure forever. Thank you Alfred and the entire team at Blink Ko Olina. We love you all
