It certainly seems to have been a really long time since there has been some great new photos of Alex. After a fourteen week hiatus where Alex pretty much stayed underwraps the majority of time, season 8 shooting began and with that came some great new pics and videos.
The season started on July 7th with a Blessing that was also kept underwraps due to reasons only the cast and crew know for sure. There were no actual good facial shots of Alex during the blessing and this back shot of him and Chi pretty much sums up the day and the lack of coverage.
However, on July 11th they all came out of hiding and were shooting at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. From that came many new photos and the first real sighting of Alex.
Since they are back, we are back with the wrap-ups so check out everything that has happened in the last couple of weeks. If you missed any of the hiatus wrap-ups you can also find June, May, and April at these highlighted links.
Behind the Scenes
First and foremost, the majority of the photos and videos are courtesy of Hawaii_isla808 who is a local photographer in Honolulu. Over the last few years he has provided some really great behind the scenes photos and videos, so go follow him and say thanks!
Here are his social media accounts:
Here are the pics and videos! Note since we are an Alex site we have only included ones that he is in but there are others on the Hawaii Isla 808 social media accounts so that is just another reason for you to follow his accounts.

Here are some other pics from other sources that also caught some behind the scenes action this past week.
Here are a few peek-a-boo-shots. Look closely and you will see him.
This is kind of an interesting shot from on set. Looking through the lens, you can see some insight of the boys siting down and getting to know Tani. (we think). This is a good place to mention that Meaghan Rath is who was on the set with the guys at the Hilton. Whether she is going to be playing Tani or not is still not verified but it would be a good educated guess based on how the character has been described and what we see them shooting. If true, then we will be seeing a lot more of her throughout the season as she joins the cast in what is sure to add some new story lines and new blood to the show.
Here are a few candid shots from the day including the first selfie of season 8.
