Russell, I applied for-the makeup artist position for the new store Expressions? Anyway I got the job! I think assisting you/listing you as a reference REALLY helped! You're like THE MAN in the industry :) I start on November 1st. I know, eventually I would like to just be able to freelance but this gives me the opportunity to work on other people instead of just my poor daughter and her friends.Thank you for sharing your time, patience and expertise with me. Your generosity is much appreciated. Always Berta Oct. 18, 2002

Morgan (mother to Kelly Morgan) Hi russell, "Just wanted to thank you again for taking such nice photos of Kelly. She got a job modeling Ethel's prom gowns this past month. I don't know what magazines or papers she'll appear in yet. Sharon Serene Creative picked her. Kelly will be in the Kahala Mall Fashion Show 3/10 at 1 PM wearing prom gowns. Kelly submitted her picture to Young Laundry as your web page encouraged. She won a $100. gift certificate for drycleaning. We really believe it's your talent that brought out her smile and appeal and helped her to get her first local modeling jobs this year. Last year she was in a Japanese cosmetic commercial but this year should be even better thanks to your assistance." |

He's a very caring, funny, and friendly individual, and once you meet him, you feel like you found a new friend... I look foward to working with him again! You are all that and more!"

Tanoue is a world class photographer with a world class act. The
creative & clean approach he embraces to capture the
talent my firm represents in his photographs is nothing short of
genius. Paris, New York and LA have nothing on Honolulu when it
comes to the cutting edge artistry of Russell Tanoue Photographer.

| "Well, I was very nervous about doing the shoot, but
working with him was great and I was quite comfortable throughout
the shoot. I could tell that he left an impact on people. In fact about
halfway into our shoot a little girl, who he had photographed on a prior
engagement, ran up to him out of no where and gave him a big hug.
He's really sincere, comes with alot of energy and ingenuity, and I look
forward to working with him again."
