Honolulu Wedding Photographer —
why Pure Media Hawaii.
Pure Media Hawaii has been Honolulu's premier wedding photography and videography studio since 2011. Founded by Brandan Lee — a born-and-raised Hawaii local — we've spent 15 years building an intimate knowledge of Honolulu and Oahu's wedding venues, light conditions, and the unique character of what makes a Hawaii wedding truly extraordinary.
When you hire a Honolulu wedding photographer, you want someone who knows the city — the venues, the traffic patterns, the weather tendencies, and where the most beautiful light falls at every time of day. That local knowledge is something you simply can't get from a photographer who flies in for the weekend.
Honolulu Wedding Venues We Know Best
Honolulu is home to some of Hawaii's most iconic wedding venues — and we've photographed at virtually all of them. In Waikiki, we work regularly at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, Royal Hawaiian Hotel, Halekulani, Moana Surfrider, and Alohilani Resort. In Ko Olina, we cover Aulani, Four Seasons, JW Marriott, and Lanikuhonua. In Kahala, the Kahala Hotel & Resort and Waialae Country Club are two of our most elegant venues.
Each of these venues has its own lighting conditions, logistical requirements, and visual character — and we know them all.
Waikiki Wedding Photography
Waikiki is Honolulu's most famous neighborhood and home to some of the most iconic wedding backdrops in Hawaii. Diamond Head on the horizon, the Pacific Ocean stretching endlessly, and the warm golden light of a Honolulu sunset create wedding photography conditions of extraordinary beauty.
We know exactly how to work Waikiki — where to position you to minimize crowds in the background, how to use the hotel architecture and beachfront settings for maximum visual impact, and when the light is at its most beautiful at each specific venue.
Honolulu's Most Experienced Wedding Studio
After 15 years and over 1,000 Honolulu and Oahu weddings, we've developed systems and experience that simply cannot be replicated. We've seen every type of wedding day — perfect and imperfect — and we know how to adapt, problem-solve, and deliver exceptional results regardless of what the day brings.
Our 4.8-star rating on WeddingWire with 57 verified reviews reflects what our couples consistently experience: professionalism, warmth, and photography and videography that genuinely captures the emotion of their day.
Combined Photography & Videography
Many Honolulu wedding photographers offer photography only. At Pure Media Hawaii, we offer both photography and videography as a combined, coordinated team. This means one aesthetic vision, one timeline, one point of contact — and significantly better value than booking two separate vendors.
Our combined photo + video packages start at $3,799 for full-day coverage — making us one of the most competitive combined studios in Honolulu.
