Brandon Smith Photography

The best experience I've had with a photographer! It's true that you have to be really good at what you do to get even the least photogenic individuals to look so great in their pictures! Truly a pleasure to have worked with Brandon!

He was amazing!! We had such a good time, Brandon is so much fun! We had a huge group, he did a great time organizing us all and making us laugh.

If I could give Brandon 10 Stars... I would! (TL;DR: You should book him if you're interested and if he's available!)My now husband and I made a game time decision to elope in Hawaii 12 days before we left to vacation back home in Oahu for 2 weeks. We were so lucky Brandon was available! From the first text,... we knew Brandon was our people. His witty comments, his funny & caring demeanor, let alone his talent, solidified that he was perfect.He was willing to accommodate any of our hair brained ideas and when we did our site visit at Ko'Olina the day before our ceremony, both my husband and I had a gut feeling it didn't feel right. Too crowded, too many tourists, so few intimate spaces where the two of us could make our day just ours.In a heartbeat, I asked Brandon, "If you were to get married tomorrow anywhere on the island, where would YOU do it?" Brandon selected a spot with the caveat... "It's a bit treacherous to get there, but totally worth the shot...and I've never lost a bride there yet!" Hahaha. Sounded good, we were in.We implicitly trusted him and can I say... WOW! Brandon outdid himself a million times. Our photos were fantastic and from the moment he arrived on our wedding day, he made us laugh, put us at ease, and just worked his creative magic. Needless to say, we're overjoyed with our photos. Brandon started as our photographer, but I can easily say we're now family. We'll hopefully be back someday to take maternity photos and family photos. Book Brandon, you'll be so glad you did. We sure were!

This review is long overdue, but we absolutely loved working with Brandon! We booked him a while back for our upcoming wedding and unfortunately had to postpone/reschedule on numerous occasions due to the pandemic. Brandon was willing to accommodate every time without any issues which was a huge relief.On the day of our wedding Brandon arrived early with his second shooter and we all loved his fun energy! Although the weather wasn't the best, he did his best to adjust. He was very professional with all our guests and we appreciated his flexibility through everything. We absolutely loved all the photos we received and would definitely recommend Brandon to anyone looking to hire a wedding photographer. Thank you Brandon for capturing our special day!!

Brandon is the best! I love his aura and vibe. He makes you feel good and look good behind his lens!!! Just finished a shoot and he was so easy to work with. He knows this island like a local and knows where to get the money shots.... Can't wait to see the pics. The sunset today was epic so I know the pics are going to be gorgeous. I'll post some when we get them back. If you need a photographer, book Brandon. He's the best!

Update: Brandon sent us our pictures and we absolutely love them. Still highly recommend Brandon!

The best photographer I have worked with on island!! I booked Brandon for a portfolio shoot for my daughter. His energy was amazing, he was extremely professional, and has a gift for bringing out the magic in my daughter for her first portfolio shoot. Brandon suggested the most incredible location, had reliable clear communication, was so friendly and fun to work with, and delivered the photos with an extremely quick turnaround. I can't recommend him enough; we will book him for all of our future portfolio and family shoots!

The most incredible photographer ever!! My entire family was vacationing in Hawaii this summer and we decided to book a family photo shoot for 50+ people!! Let me tell you, Brandon delivered!! He was amazing! Charismatic, cheerful, funny, and PATIENT! A TRUE PROFESSIONAL!! The final images were truly spectacular ! If you're looking for a photographer, Brandon is your man!

Brandon is an incredibly talented photographer! I found him online while searching for someone in Hawaii to take our annual family photos, and the entire process--from booking to the final product--was seamless, fun, and effortless. If you have kids, you'll appreciate how wonderful he is with them; our children absolutely adored him and didn't want him to leave after our session. Be sure to check out his Instagram and website for examples of his stunning work. We will undoubtedly book a session with him every time we visit Hawaii--he's that good and worth every investment.

Update: Brandon sent a message to everyone explaining the delay and his queue for processing everyone's photos. We received our photos in the end after a long wait, but we really appreciate Brandon coming through for us. Photos are fantastic.
