Aloha! My name is Drew. I am a wedding videographer here on the Hawaiian Islands. I love to capture weddings in a timeless and nostalgic way. I use a variety of cameras, from my 1975 Super 8 Film Camera, to my modern cinematic beast the Sony a7IV, to old digital camcorders. I like to incorporate the old Super 8 Film into my wedding videos to give it more of a romance and wedding day feel.
A little about me: I was born and raised in Alabama and moved to Hawaii 4 years ago. I have been doing Videography & Photography for 7 years now. I graduated from the University of South Alabama in 2021 with a degree in Film & Cinema with a minor in Photography. This is what I love!
I love capturing the moment in an artistic way and keeping these moments alive forever. Life is too precious and can go by so quickly. I am grateful to always have a camera in my hand and capture life's greatest moments so that I can remember them forever.
Please take a look at my work! You can find more of what I do on my website or Instagram. I will leave my website and my Instagram down below. I look forward to working with you!

We couldn’t have asked for a better videographer than Drew for our wedding day! From the very beginning, his communication was excellent—he took the time to ask specific questions, listen to our vision, and ensure every detail was perfect. His attention to detail and willingness to answer any questions (no matter when we asked) made the entire process stress-free.
On the day of the wedding, Drew arrived early, ready to go, and brought such a positive, friendly energy that instantly put everyone at ease. My family and I absolutely adored him! Even my husband and his groomsmen, who are usually on the shy side, had a blast filming with him. Drew’s personality truly brought out their confidence and made the experience fun and memorable.
Throughout the day, Drew made me feel like royalty. He went above and beyond to capture every detail and made sure I felt heard and cared for. Watching him work, it was clear how much pride he takes in what he does—he wasn’t just filming a wedding; he was preserving our most special memories.
By the end of the night, Drew felt like part of the family. We even got him to join us on the dance floor! His fun, kind-hearted nature made the entire evening even more special.
Drew was hands-down the best hype man and videographer we could have ever hoped for. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, creative, and genuinely invested in making your day unforgettable, look no further. I’d hire him again in a heartbeat and recommend him to anyone. Thank you, Drew, for being such an incredible part of our wedding day!

BOOK, DREW!! You will not regret it! Some advice we received early on was a budget for a videographer and for so many reasons we are beyond happy we did! He without trying was such a calm and energizing personality to have around us on our big day. Future couples, you’d be lucky to have Drew with you, capturing your once in a lifetime day. His skills were OUT OF THIS WORLD and the final product still brings us to tears, we’ve probably watched our wedding video an unhealthy amount of
times but his perspective and collaboration with us is something we will now be able to reminisce back on for a very long time to come. Drew, we have no words for how grateful we are to you and you and your partnership. We hope anyone who needs a videographer is able to experience you and your expertise! We truly can’t wait to connect with you again when we are back on the islands.
So much, Aloha! Kanani and Kapono.

our time spent with drew could not have been any better! he was everything you want in a photographer - accommodating, responsive, flexible and most importantly, phenomenal at what he does! my husband and i were visiting the big island for our 1 year anniversary, which also turned into our baby moon, and decided to have our maternity photos done here. we were thrilled with the entire experience and how all the photos turned out! he has quite the artistic eye. you would not be disappointed.
Any questions?

Drew has a unique talent and personality that relaxes anyone and everyone in front of a camera.

The engagement shoot felt more like hanging out with friends than taking pictures with a photographer — it was so much fun! Drew was the ultimate hype man and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. He knew the perfect spot to take us and the pictures turned out INCREDIBLE. 10/10 would recommend Drew every time!!

Drew is the best photographer/videographer you’ll work with in Hawaii. I’ve worked with many and Drew’s professionalism, energy, creativity and personality is what separates him from the rest. He brought our visions to life and was so upbeat and positive and made both of us feel so comfortable. The images and footage he captured is so special and beautiful and we’re so lucky to be able to have this for the rest of our lives. Thank you Drew for being a huge part of our big day!
