Richard Marks, MA. has been a professional photographer since 1986.
His photographs have been in the San Francisco Chronicle, Pacific Sun, Marin Independent Journal and many magazines in the San Francisco Bay Area since his arrival
there in 1976. His photos are now distributed world wide via Getty
Images.
In 1992, Richard was invited to collaborate on shooting a high end wedding with a
dear friend and world class Getty Images photographer, Trinette Reed. Photographing
this wedding with Trinette was such a wonderful experience that Richard decided
to add wedding photography to his creative repertoire as he loves bringing his visual artistry to ceremonies that are centered around celebrating Love and has shot over 1000 weddings.
Since moving his photography business to Maui his photos have been featured in the Maui News,Maui Art and Cultural Center Publications and most recently the Pacific Weddings Magazine.
Richardʻs business is built around his philosophy of creating win/win scenarios with his clients, where he delivers exquisite and fun photos, while focusing on the Spirit of Aloha.
CLIENT FEEDBACK:
"Working with Richard Marks, one gets so much more than a
photographer or videographer. Richard is a true artist -
always sensitive to the occasion, the project and the people he works with and for.
Like any true artist, Richard is always looking for that truly special moment, special "light", which captures the essence of his subject or topic at hand. Of course, he is a consummate professional; reliable, punctual, accountable.
But those are qualities to be expected.
What Richard brings to his work is the magic and wonder of the UNexpected.
I have enjoyed every project we‘ve worked on together, including my Vocal Ease DVD,
and I look forward to many more opportunities in the future."

"I am delighted both by the process and by the results of having Richard Marks film my music video. During the production at the Grace Cathedral in San Francisco, I greatly appreciated his creative vision, professionalism, and passion for his art. I found him to be a joy to work with - attentive both to the needs of the project as well as to my personal needs on set. His enthusiasm and positivity helped me feel comfortable and supported in the creative process. I am thrilled with the results and look forward to
working with him again soon."

Feedback from high end wedding photographer

Richard
Thank you so much for taking the time to send me your e mail and for your words of
encouragement.I clicked on your aloha'ia link to see your work & ended up browsing for 40 minutes! Wow! I am speech- less….Your work is stunning! In viewing your work your advanced technical skills are immediately apparent in the beautiful lighting and composition of your images.
But what is so heartwarming to me is to see that elegance, drama, romance, passion, and humor are alive and well and so wonderfully portrayed in your images.
In a time when most of the skilled “old time” photographers have been pushed aside and overlooked in favor of inexperienced newcomers with limited talent and skills, it is refreshing to see
that the island is recognizing and supporting someone with true talent. You are the whole package…your sensitivity, warmth, sincerity and humor coupled with undeniable skill and talent is a rare combination that any bride would be lucky to experience.
Your photography truly is EXQUISITE!
Aloha,
Kathryn
