It all started with a passion for car photography/video. We split a camera because we couldn’t afford it on our own. Then as we got better and ventured out to other genres we knew that this could be powerful. What we do is tell a story, preserve a moment forever, and evoke emotion.

This all really started as a hobby but soon grew into a burning passion. It really is something therapeutic that has helped us grow as individuals. Not only have we been able to impact others lives but our own as well.

Through this avenue, we have been able to meet so many people from around the world who have turned into life long friends. It really isn’t so much about the photo as it is about the journey to get the end goal. It’s about creating lasting memories, making people see their true beauty, and telling a story through visuals

I wouldn’t say we have an editing style but rather a style of capturing the moment. It’s working with clients to really get down to the core of who they are to put that into what we capture for them. It’s not just a nice product but more of how did you feel when you see it? 

If you’ve already perused our website, you probably noticed that we do a wide range of things from events, portraits, modeling and much more. The reason being that each of these different genres allows us to capture a different moment in life. 

Our personal projects allow us to express and expand our creativity. Not only is it a creative outlet, but also an opportunity to speak to viewers through visual content we create for small businesses, to show casing other creatives. On occasions we’ve also voluntarily created content for non-profit organizations such as Make a Wish.

We’re honored to have worked with a vast amount of locally owned businesses in Hawaii such as Ny’Ala Skin Care, Storybook Hawaii, Pineapple Palaka, the Public Pet and many more.

 What we take pride in is establishing a relationship with clients prior to getting into the business details; getting to know them as an individual learning what wants and needs are to be fulfilled whether they’re for business, first birthdays, weddings, graduations, etc.  As a media team it is our duty to save these moments forever. 

Working with Genki Media has been life changing for me as a blogger in Hawaii. We started out early 2018 with fun fashion concepts over Instagram DM and finally met in person to further set our plans in motion.Whether they work with clients or pursue passion projects, the Genki Media team ensures to get the jobs done efficiently with the best quality.

The majority of work that I partner with them on involve my blog section ‘Only on Oahu’, where I write about small local businesses on Oahu who are just getting started or who need more exposure. Genki Media is always throwing new ideas when it comes to the fashion portion of my blog and I thrive going back and forth on eccentric concepts.

Overall, I’m proud to work with this team and look forward to doing more working together to step outside the box moving forward.

"Shooting with Genki Media was the first time I've ever shot with ANYONE. Before the photoshoot, I was incredibly nervous and unsure of what the experience would be like. Those feelings fell away the moment we finally met in person. He is kind, understanding, and is all about empowerment and embracing yourself. I had so much fun, and I felt like such a strong woman the entire time. He helped me through the process and was understanding and patient with me throughout the entire shoot. It truly was one of the best experiences I've ever had, and I can't wait to shoot again with him someday!"

Thank you so much Genki Media for always taking amazing pictures of our family! They have taken family pictures for our Christmas cards, Halloween moments, and Engagements photos. Our photos look great on canvas prints and glossy prints. Very professional and highly recommend! Time is irreplaceable and Landen definitely captured our special moments. Thank you! We will always call you for our family photos!

The term “photoshoot” would be the last of my vocabulary that I’d choose to describe the session; it was rather an adventure that flourished into a lifelong friendship, to say the least.

My boyfriend and I flew from the East Coast—it being his first time and a 4th for myself. I never truly got to experience Oahu to such an extent and depth until the day with Landen. He drove us through the entire Island, while capturing us in our purest and candid of moments. 

He was our tour guide and photographer for the day, but our best friend for life.  Thank you for giving me something to hold onto for a lifetime; the photos still leave me spellbound.

Genki Media and Gabby were amazing to work with, they captured my brand and story better than I could have imagined. Each photo showed a different part of my process - and the editing was so perfect! Gabby was so detailed and thoughtful with her interview - the blog really provided Ny'Ala with a personal side and I really appreciate it. 

Genki Media is a phenomenal photographer who produces creative, artsy, and beautiful photos. But even more than that he is wonderful person who made me feel so at ease during the shoot! We got some amazing family photos as well as my senior pictures but would 10/10 recommend Landen as a photographer for any sort of shoot.
