    “We had an amazing experience with Grant & ELP Productions! We got married in December at the Fairmont Orchid and Grant captured the day better than we could’ve imagined. He took so many amazing natural/candid photos and helped make sure we got all our inspo photos done even when we had to pivot indoors due to weather! He found us an area for family photos outdoors that we were covered by trees from the rain. It was clear how much he cared about making our day perfect and making sure we would have memories through photos forever! We would highly recommend Grant & ELP Productions for anyone who needs a photographer!”

    “Grant is so easy to work with -- he takes all the guess work out of photos in an unfamiliar place, and he was comfortable and easy during the photo session (which made for great pictures). The edits to the photos were icing on the cake. We will absolutely head back to HI at some point, and when we do, we'll be looking to do another session with Grant.”

    “Grant captured beautiful photos and video of our wedding. He was a calming presence in a chaotic setting, very flexible and willing to go with the flow. Grant went out of his way to return to the beach to take photos of us with the sunset as our backdrop. I highly recommend choosing Grant to be your photographer or videographer for any event.”
