On This Day
AOULEE
A Photography Collective
AOULEE is a brand created by combining the Hawaiian words “AO” (light, world, earth) and “ULI” (to steer), evoking the nature, light, and ocean of tropical Hawaii.
We cherish our dedication to “light” and our unique artistic vision, pouring our heart and soul into every single photograph. The name AOULEE embodies a global perspective and a deep sense of love.
“Capturing a moment in timeless beauty”—that is our motto. In addition to our diverse framing techniques, we offer unparalleled quality through our high-end silver-print albums and permanent data storage using Pixieset.
Among the many wedding photographers out there, the photographers at AOULEE draw on their individual artistic sensibilities to work as a team and capture your precious moments.

Kai Umeda (Bilingual)
Born in Kobe, he grew up in Hawaii and San Francisco from the age of three. After graduating from the University of San Francisco, he returned to Japan at the age of 25.
Exposed to international art from a young age, he studied art and design in San Francisco.
In addition to photography, I also create videos and music, and do digital design.
My Thoughts on Photography
I love creating creative spaces from scratch, and
During a photo shoot, I strive to make the camera feel invisible so that I can capture natural expressions.
To that end, I keep posing instructions to a minimum and focus on capturing the atmosphere and mood of each moment.
Hobbies: Making music
Favorite foods: Sushi and international cuisine
