Recent project images from the Four Seasons Oahu at Ko Olina

The main goal of the three day photoshoot was to capture the unforgettable ocean views from several of the Hotel’s Rooms and Suites.  As you can see, the views from the rooms are stunning, the upper-floor corner room has incredible views from two private balconies of the vast Pacific Ocean! It truly has that wow factor!

We had a great shoot at the Four Seasons and the hospitality of all the staff was just amazing.  We look forward to going back to shoot soon! Mahalo Nui Loa to everyone at the FS Oahu!

Frank Lloyd Wright Hawaii /  by Ethan Tweedie

In 2015 It was my honor to have the opportunity to photograph the only Frank Lloyd Wright home in the State of Hawaii.  Surprisingly I never knew the home existed and to find out it was in my own hometown of Waimea Hawaii was really astounding.

The home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright was an unbuilt project designed in 1954, but shelved until 1984 and finally built in 1995 and was called the Cornwall residence.  The plans were prepared by Taliesin Associated Architects in Scottsdale, Arizona who are affiliated with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and the only entity authorized to oversee the construction of Frank Lloyd Wright’s unbuilt projects. The project was built by local builder Hans Torweihe and some recent interior design work by Willman Interiors.

The home sits on close to 3 acres right on a bluff over looking Keanuiomano Stream and in the distance looms the amazing views of Mauna Kea Volcano, Mauna Loa Volcano and Hualalai Volcano.  The property takes full advantage of some of the best views on the Big Island.

The home is privately owned, but they do allow the home to be rented for vacationers or Frank Lloyd Wright enthusiasts.  Here is the VRBO link

Luxury Hotel Photography | Halekulani Renovations | Hotel Room Photography | Waikiki | Hawaii /  by Ethan Tweedie

Over five days in December we photographed the newly renovated hotel rooms at Hawaii’s finest iconic Hotel, Halekulani.   I am so proud to be able to share some of our work from the photoshoot, each room was carefully scheduled and planed to take advantage of the sunlight and views of the Pacific Ocean/Waikiki/Diamond Head etc.

Here is Halekulani’s description of the design elements:

“Halekulani’s guest accommodations have been thoughtfully revitalized and designed, enhancing the property’s signature “seven shades of white” aesthetic philosophy. Framing dramatic and expansive views of the majestic Pacific Ocean and the verdant, oasis-like grounds of the resort, the overarching theme of nature and blending the sea with the sky will offer a haven of elegance and serenity. New elements of warmth and texture will serve to enrich the design, infusing a sense of harmony and balance throughout. Wooden panels and cabinetry will be incorporated, as well as textured wall coverings and meticulously crafted furnishings to fuse the subtle influences of European, Hawaiian, and Asian cultures.”
