    Amazing photographer

    My wife and I got married at the Royal Kona Resort in January 2020.
    Our photographer was Ranae with EMotion Galleries-she was so attentive to us and the types of pictures we wanted. Ranae has so much great experience to bring to photography. If you are looking for a photographer of any kind in the Kona area I recommend Ranae!

    Best photographer of all time!

    Hawaii means so much to my husband and I. He grew up there and we wanted to find a photographer that could capture our big day in a cherished place. I had no idea how to go about finding the perfect photographer. Ranae was brought to my attention by my wedding planner. I am so glad we found her! Ranae was absolutely amazing to work with! She was very professional and so much fun! My young niece kept wanting to help and Ranae put her to the task! When my husband and I looked at our photos we fell in love with them! I sent a single photo to my family to preview and they immediately started telling me...

    Ranae did an AMAZING job with our photos. She was included in our destination package at the Royal Kona so we didn't really know what to expect....I could not have asked for a better photographer. Thank you so much for the amazing pictures!

    Above and beyond expectations

    My husband and I booked Ranae through our resort for our wedding photography while we were in the planning phase. On the day of the wedding, Ranae arrived on time, and ready to work. She was great to work with and got a multitude of different shots. She did everything she could to get the perfect shot, including laying down in the grass. I absolutely can't wait to see the finished product. The couple of photos she showed us were stunning!

    Ranae of Emotion galleries did the photography for our wedding and was absolutely INCREDIBLE! We originally only signed up for the base package as I was leary of using a photographer I had never met and that was just included in our wedding package, but half way through the wedding we were SO impressed that we asked her to add more which she willingly did. Our photos turned out beautiful and we have them hanging all over our house. Her creativity captured what will always be remembered as the perfect day! Thank you Ranae!

    We could not have asked for better photos or a better photographer to capture our wedding. We received them in a timely manner and the photos set to music brought tears to both of our eyes. You cannot go wrong with booking Ranae.

    Still married! And still thankful for gorgeous pictures!!! The most awesome pictures I or my husband have ever had taken of us. Ranae's eye for lighting, composition, angles, and photo retouching - the best!! Being a photographer myself for corporate projects I am very picky and was extremely pleased with all the photos.

    We were very fortunate to have Ranae do a photo shoot with my daughter. Ranae made her feel very comfortable. She really helped bring out the beauty in her. She even got a couple of shots of my son. Very talent and professional lady to work with

    Ranae was exactly what we needed for our wedding photographer. We didn't really have any idea of poses and all of her suggestions were great. My photos turned out so beautiful and better than I imagined. She even got us the perfect sunset photo silhouette. I would highly recommend to anyone considering her services.

    Ranae was amazing! My husband's family is all sorts of crazy, with step mom's, step dad's, etc., she had the patience to make sure we were all happy as everyone made it into a picture with the bride and groom and their respectable families!

    Ranae was an absolute delight to work with. From the minute I met her it was like catching up with someone I already knew well; was so so friendly and easy to work with. She knew exactly what to do to get the best photos out of us and I love every single one of them. Not only that but we had the photos two weeks after the wedding which is fantastic.
