New Hope Leeward (www.newhopeleeward.org) is like family to ARIA. About once a week, we get to help dream up and produce a video that airs at all 8 weekend services at 3 leeward Oahu campuses. Whether it’s a church announcement, testimony, or video illustration, once thing for sure — it’s so different from weddings — but we love it… it feels like home.
The projects are always different… but THIS is one thing that stays the same: the monthly Water Baptism at Ali’i Beach Park. It is one of my all-time, most favorite things to shoot. Standing with our church ‘ohana, hearing people’s stories, and capturing the emotion and joy of the day… *sigh*… it gives me the warm fuzzies every time. Aloha ke ‘Akua. — KA
