It's Kay-le-na and my name is Hawaiian for flower.
I'm a wife, and a mom and a creative.
I absolutely love Hawaiian coffee, sunsets, the beach, the mountains just do not ask me to choose between the two, this is why you see me splitting my time between the pacific ocean and the rocky mountains.
I cherish spending time with family and friends.
I love reading, candles. anything hibiscus, and
Quality time is very important to me.
I absolutely adore being behind the camera and I truly deeply connect with love.
There is truly something so unique and truly heart warming about documenting weddings, the small moments and the connection that comes with them.
The connection between the bride and groom and the connection between the couple and their family and friends. A wedding day is the beginning of a life long journey and commitment and my films are truly crafted for those who are in it for the long haul.

TIMELESS ARTISTIC
NOSTALGIC
I can’t even begin to explain how much we loved working with Kailina. We found her by chance when we were looking for someone to document our Maui elopement and I’m SO thankful we found her. S he was so flexible, helpful, fun, and sweet to work with! We were both nervous about being in front of a video camera, but she made us feel so comfortable. She is truly one of the nicest, most professional, and best vendors you can work with. I cannot brag enough. Do yourself a favor and book with Roots + Wings!! You’ll be so thankful you did!

Kailina was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! She is one of the kindest,most caring people I met and one of my favorite vendors for my wedding! First and foremost for the rest of my life I will cry ugly tears at the absolute amazing video Kailina made for me. Kailina was an overwhelmingly calming presence all day. From the moment she arrived at my hotel room she was was asking if I needed anything, reassuring me we were on time, and jumping into tasks that she did not have to do. She got amazing shots and worked flawlessly with my photographer Somehow at the first look and during the ceremony and reception she was everywhere all at once, but invisible too. She was absolute magic.

"She was absolute magic"
Kailina did an incredible job documenting the most perfect day. Her attention to detail and artistic abilities make her excellent at what she does. She is very kind, funny and charismatic and exactly who you'd want filming your big day. Also prior to the wedding I felt like she really made the effort to get to know us to portray a video that is truly us
