Ke‘olu Golf Course Photography | Four Seasons Hualalai | Hawaii /  by Ethan Tweedie

The Hualalai Resort recently hired me to photograph their newly renovated Private Members Only Ke’olu Golf Course using Drone Aerial Photography.  For 5 days in a row we started our day at Sunrise and captured 3 to 4 Holes each morning ending the day by 8am as to capture the best light on each Hole.  

The renovation took two years and is the first since the Tom Weiskopf course debuted in 2002.  The Golf Course’s major changes were converting the Bermuda grass to Paspalum.  “The Paspalum grass is more salt tolerant and has a brilliant emerald green appearance” says Dan Husek Director of Golf Course Maintenance. 

It was truly an honor to have the privilege of capturing this magnificent golf course in its best light.

Luxury Hotel Photography | Halekulani and Halepuna | Waikiki | Oahu /  by Ethan Tweedie

Some highlights from our photoshoot at the Halekulani and Halepuna, both hotels went through some renovations and the client needed to update a few of the room images and capture some images of the Lobby at Halepuna.

Halekulani is one of the first and finest hotels in Hawaii and sits right on the beach in the heart of Waikiki. The name Halekulani means “House Befitting Heaven” and it's the quintessential Hawaii experience with amazing personal service with sunsets and dining on the ocean each evening.

Across the street from Halekulani is Halepuna, “it is the finest upscale boutique hotel in Waikiki and was named top hotel in Hawaii by CNN Travel four years in a row."

I hope you enjoy the images as much as we enjoyed shooting for our client and experiencing the hotel's offerings.

Luxury Hotel Photography | Halekulani Renovations | Hotel Room Photography | Waikiki | Hawaii /  by Ethan Tweedie

Over five days in December we photographed the newly renovated hotel rooms at Hawaii’s finest iconic Hotel, Halekulani.   I am so proud to be able to share some of our work from the photoshoot, each room was carefully scheduled and planed to take advantage of the sunlight and views of the Pacific Ocean/Waikiki/Diamond Head etc.

Here is Halekulani’s description of the design elements:

“Halekulani’s guest accommodations have been thoughtfully revitalized and designed, enhancing the property’s signature “seven shades of white” aesthetic philosophy. Framing dramatic and expansive views of the majestic Pacific Ocean and the verdant, oasis-like grounds of the resort, the overarching theme of nature and blending the sea with the sky will offer a haven of elegance and serenity. New elements of warmth and texture will serve to enrich the design, infusing a sense of harmony and balance throughout. Wooden panels and cabinetry will be incorporated, as well as textured wall coverings and meticulously crafted furnishings to fuse the subtle influences of European, Hawaiian, and Asian cultures.”

Stirrups Restaurant | The Equestrian Hotel | Ocala Florida /  by Ethan Tweedie

Stirrups Restaurant is a site to behold, massive 2 story ceilings, custom millwork and a 1,500 bottle wine cellar! For the main dining room image, we must have spent an hour lining up each chair so the image would be just perfect! If you ever go to The Equestrian Hotel you must dine at Stirrups! Here is the description from the designer, Roberts Design Group

“On the first floor of The Equestrian Hotel, Stirrups Restaurant is a timeless representation of luxury dining. As an elegant southern steakhouse and fine dining experience, we wanted the space to be refined with Parisian inspirations. The custom millwork and fine details, like the chrome door handles that mimic stamped leather, complete the look.

As one of the unique outlets found in The Equestrian, its design is honored as a part of the hotel's nomination for the 2021 Gold Key Awards in the category of "Best Hotel Luxury."

The Equestrian Hotel description: “Prime steaks and chops, sustainable Florida seafood and seasonal specialties are served in a refined dining room and terrace overlooking the Grand Outdoor Arena at the World Equestrian Center/Equestrian Hotel

Stirrups Restaurant is Ocala’s premier, elegant southern steakhouse, where refined comfort food meets elevated service with a wine cellar accommodating 1500 bottles of wine.”
