"Aloha Frank! We just made it back to Illinois a few hours ago and I just got my first look at the photos...they are AMAZING...you a very talented photographer! I couldn't be happier with them. Our experience in Maui was overwhelming and emotional for many different reasons, so the way you so perfectly captured my family made me cry tears of joy. I will tell everyone I know who may be considering a trip to Maui that they should get their photos done by you. Well, I've typed a novel here and I am exhausted. Maybe some day our paths will cross again. Bless you!"Megan Wanek
