Take a look into my life :-)

TEHLOR TAKAHATA

hi guys! just a lil about me here :-)

I first started off my journey shooting photos of my adventures back home- hiking, the beach, and my everyday lifestyle as an island girl. Born and raised in Kaneohe, Oahu, I'm just a girl that fell in love--with love, and life.

I'm here to help you do the same!!

Through lots of true colors and sunshine, a lil runnin' around, a whole lot of laughter, and living a life of pure gratitude above all else, I'm here to capture some of the biggest and most important moments + people in your life in present time. Moments, exactly as they are-- that’s the kind of photographer I am.

I'm there to pay. attention. To let your wedding day unfold as it naturally will in real time. No staged posing, no do-overs. Just here and now.

To let you truly FEEL your wedding day.

To let you be truly you.

It's not just you booking a photographer. It's creating an experience. One that helps you remember just how beautiful your life truly is.

I'm here to show you that your life is ART and catch those once-in-a-lifetime moments, preserving them as memories for you to look back on for years to come, down to the tiniest and most special of details. I'm here because one day when you look back to remember, you can truly say you didn't miss a thing.

Sharing a life of gratitude and forming friendships with you all along the way, always reminds me to never forget what my real mission + life purpose here is, and that's bringing people closer together.

I’ve learned through my journey not just as a photographer, but as a daughter, partner, lover, sister, friend, and human being—that the real journey in life is measured in moments you truly feel ALIVE, and how much heart you invest into not just fulfilling your potential + purpose but helping as many others as possible to do the same.

So live a little!!

Laught a lotto.

Love a whole bunch.

Take some photos :-)

Wake up every day with an attitude of gratitude and I hope you fall in love with your life in the process.

Can't wait to hang soon!

SWEET WORDS from the SWEETEST PEOPLE

“Couldn't have asked for better communication. Working with you felt like hanging out with a good friend! It kept us all so comfortable when taking pictures. Everything was a dream and I couldn't have trusted anyone else to capture us or our day as perfect as you did, I felt like the little things that mattered to me also mattered to you (like getting our dream rainbow shot!!). Overall, you are the best in the biz and we can’t wait to have another opportunity to work with you again!”
