HOW WE TELL

  your STORY

Did you know that our memories are based on the last time we remembered them? So, each time we revisit a memory, it may not show the entire picture.

As a photo and film team, we cherish the quiet in-between moments, the tears shared by parents and grandparents, the empty chairs honoring those watching from above, and the glances you and your partner exchange when words fall short. These are the moments our memory returns to.

Every image is an act of remembering. A way back to who was there, how it felt, and the love that surrounded you. So that one day, when future generations see your album, they’ll say, “this is where our story began.”

        and it all starts here…

“SHE came SO PREPARED ON

OUR WEDDING DAY, and I DIDN’T

HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT A THING!”

“She was very much invested in us, and it was evident in our photos. I was in love!!! I am in awe of how beautiful they came out! I couldn't stop smiling ear to ear when I received them. Each photo was filled with so much feeling and emotion. Scrolling through each one was like reliving that day all over again.”

MOMENTS & MUSINGS

The JOURNAL

  • "THE EYE FOR DETAIL IS UNMATCHED, AND THE PHOTOS & VIDEOS EXCEEDED ALL MY EXPECTATIONS. EACH IMAGE FEELS LIKE A WORK OF ART, PERFECTLY REFLECTING THE EMOTIONS OF THE DAY."

    “What truly sets them apart is their ability to make everyone feel comfortable and at ease. I felt like I've known them for years and felt like they were family. They were a calming presence, a creative guide, and a true joy to work with. I cannot recommend Ka'i and Co media enough! If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond to capture the essence of your day, look no further. I am forever grateful for their incredible talent and dedication.”

    -Macey & Jordan Banaga, Elopement, Ko’olina  


  • "WE CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO DESCRIBE HOW AMAZING ASHLEY WAS!"

    “She was recommended to us by one of our dearest friends & after our first consultation we knew we had to book her. We felt so comfortable & she asked all the right questions & guided us in the right direction. She created a moodboard for our engagement session & timeline for our wedding which took so much pressure off of us! All our pictures came out so magical & we can’t wait to work with Ashley again!" 


    -The Mendozas, Wedding, Cafe Julia

  • "WE WOULDN'T HAVE WANTED ANYONE ELSE TO CAPTURE THIS SPECIAL MOMENT FOR US!"

    “Ashley was amazing to work with. She is so friendly and kind and made us feel very comfortable and eased our nerves on the big day. We loved that she's very good at taking initiative and using her creativity to capture special candid moments of everyone. We stayed in touch a few months prior to the wedding day and had monthly meetings. She communicated very well and was always flexible and catered to our busy schedule. We are IN LOVE with the photos! She captured our vision perfectly and they came out even better than expected. We are so grateful to have found Ashley and wouldn't have wanted anyone else to capture this special moment for us!”
