“I have used Kanoa Utler as my photographer twice now. I would have to say that the pictures he took at my wedding in 2007 are some of my favorite photos to this day. His work is not only beautiful but he captures some interesting angles that no one else would get or even notice. Kanoa also took some of my “belly” pictures during my pregnancy and he made a very pregnant woman look lovely and elegant. Thank you Kanoa for your beautiful work, I will continue to use you as my photographer for events and family pictures!”- Nichole Medrano


“When choosing our wedding photographer, my husband Fernando and I knew we wanted someone that would capture moments that we would be able to share with our future family, moments that we might of lost in the chaos and or moments that we would hang up on our walls for years to come. Kanoa captured exactly that, he was not just our photographer, he went beyond what you would expect and gave phenomenal service. He is a talented young man, with much potential. We could not have been happier with the outcome of or wedding pictures and hope to work with him for years to come!” – Thalia Maldonado Jimenez.

Because of the quality level and the imagination of his compositions, I knew that I could trust him with capturing great images for my business blog. He really understands on how to portray your own personality in images, which is extremely important in building my brand.

Fashion/Entertainment:


Working with Kanoa Utler was one of the most enjoyable, engaging, and exciting moments of my professional career. Kanoa not only as an amazing talent that evokes the eye and captures the spirit of every model, he has a warm personality that is easy to work with on set. He brings out the best in his photographs and I can’t wait to work with him on future projects.

Alexandria Butler, Charity Fashion Show, (Former) Director of Events

I am no professional model, in fact I had never taken any professional modeling pictures in my life, until a longtime family friend, Kanoa Utler, had so kindly asked me if I’d like to do a photo shoot with him in our hometown. We scheduled a day for the photo shoot, since being my first time in front of a camera actually posing and attempting awkward angles and such, of course I was nervous! Kanoa had directed me what to do, what facial expression to make, where to look, and how to angle my body. He helped me in such a way, to where i felt completely comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Later in the week, he had sent me my photos and i absolutely love them and so does everyone else i had shown them to, they had said what an OUTSTANDING job the photographer has done and how fabulous i look.

Kanoa definitely has a PHENOMENAL gift in photography and catching the PERFECT shots, and he has got me begging for more photos!

Thanks a lot Kanoa! You’re the best :)

Kanoa Utler manages to capture all of those magical moments in our performances that rush by all too fast. His photos jump off the page with a real excitement that gives you the feeling that we as subjects in his photos are still there slinking around happily content to stay forever in front of his lens.”

Family/Lifestyle:

“Working with Kanoa was one of the most enjoyable photo experiences I have had! My husband is overseas working currently and is always asking me for new pictures. Kanoa really did a fantastic job and my husband has been glowing over my pictures for days! I am by no means a professional and having him direct me and tell me what do to made me feel at ease and all around I loved the experience! He also was very flexible with my schedule as I was leaving town shortly after. He had me the photos within 2 days! Hopefully someday he can shoot both myself and my husband! Thank you SO much Kanoa!! Can’t wait till the next time! :)

Erica Clark, Army Wife

“My wife and I met Kanoa back in July of 09 when he was working at The Picture People in Concord. From the beginning, we loved his style and professionalism in front of and behind the camera. His patience with our infant son was incredible. We never felt rushed even when it was busy. His talent behind the camera shined through the pictures he took. With his talent, he captured the first year of our son’s life from his monthly photos, holiday photos and his baptism photos, we were never let down. We will definatly use him in the future. Kanoa, We wish you the best in your future and may God bless you.”

Sincerely,
