A Word From Hawaii Big Island Wedding Photographer – Karen Loudon

Thanks for visiting my Hawaii photography site. My name is Karen Loudon. I am a professional photographer based in Kailua Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii. I am available for all islands of Hawaii. Big Island, Oahu, Maui, Kauai. Please visit my flash site or blog to view my portfolio

Wedding Photography

I focus on capturing the real emotions of the day, in classic style. I strive to take photographs that will stand the test of time and still look great 50 years from now. I like to shoot a lot of candid and photojournalistic style photos. I consult with the couple in advance to determine their photographic style, and work hard to infuse their vision into the images I take. I also like to get some fun photos and unique poses that show the happiness of the moment and the personality of the couple, family and wedding party.

Engagement Photography

An engagement photography session is all about fun, this is when I get to throw the traditional portrait rulebook out the window and catch the couple in highly unusual settings or moments. This is also when I really get to know my couples, where they can let loose, feel comfortable with me and get some practice in front of the lens before the big day. Engagement photos are a great way to personalize save-the-dates, personal wedding websites, and more of your wedding details.

Maternity and Baby Photography

Ahhhh……to capture that glow of impending motherhood or the look of awe and wonder exchanged between a father and his newborn child. My style is often described as modern, inspired, unique, even artful and anything but ordinary.

Family Photography

I can't wait to capture the little things that make your family extraordinary.

Portrait Photography

I try to convey the human spirit through my portraits. I want your true beauty to shine through, to be evident in every gaze and every smile that grace your face. We all want to look our best in pictures, soft light works wonders towards this end, and subtle digital retouching, when used properly, can help to compliment the photographic process by hiding things you do not want to stress and enhancing things you do. If you have any particular concerns, ask me about digital retouching

Boudoir Photography

A covergirl experience for the everyday woman. I believe that all women are uniquely beautiful and I want to show them that they are just as gorgeous as any model, in any magazine! It isn't everyday that a woman gets to see herself in a new light, and I love being part of this confidence boosting experience. The session is completely private & for your boyfriend or hubby's eyes only. I will coach you through every bit of the process, from outfit selection, hair and makeup to posing & expression.

Value

My approach to my business is to provide a solid value at a reasonable price. All of my prices are upfront without any hidden cost. I think you will find that all my photography sessions include a generous amount of images at a reasonable price.

If I were hiring a photographer, the first thing I would want to know is whether the original files are included in the package. If I have great pictures of you, I strongly believe that YOU should have them…ALL…and not be forced to pick and choose a few images because of your budget limitations. Every one of my photography sessions includes all full high resolution edited files on DVD as well as an online viewing album.

I also offer: Glamour Portraiture, Model Photography (comp cards, zed cards, head shots), Fashion Photography, Commercial Photography, Senior Portraits, Events….. basically I do it all!

I look forward to hearing from you, mahalo
