Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.

Masha is an incredible photographer. As a fellow wedding photographer, finding the right person to document our colorful wedding on Maui took some time, but as soon as I talked to Masha and saw her full wedding galleries I knew she was the one! She took such care to get to know us the months leading up to the wedding and on the day made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Just a few days after our wedding she sent over the most beautiful sneak peeks. When I saw them I immediately started crying she just captured our day so beautifully!! I highly recommend Masha for her artistic eye, professionalism, attention to detail, and the care she puts into her job. She is fantastic!!

Aloha! I love showing people how beautiful they are through capturing their precious moments. I love working with light and the amazing opportunities Hawaiian weddings allow; magical sunsets, splashing waves, magical wildlife, gorgeous lush foliage… I have been a photographer for 15+ years and have shot 100’s of weddings. I am passionate about love and photography, and I put everything into my work. I am married and have two beautiful little boys who are also my passions in life.

I absolutely loved having Terra shoot my maternity pictures. My husband and I are pretty awkward in front of the camera but she made us feel super comfortable and she gave us great direction. Also, I was glad to see that she came to the location early so that she can scope out the place. I was questioning some of the chosen spots in my head, but I trusted her and it all came out amazingly in the pictures. She has a great eye and her editing is just magical. I was surprised that she got us a sneak peek the day after! I hope to go back to the Big Island with my baby boy so that we can do another photoshoot with her!

We hired Alvea Studios to take our first maternity photo shoot back in 2019, both my husband and I were expecting our first baby! We got to choose the location to have our shoot and both Abbie and Harold made both my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable. We are ones to not take pictures but I knew this was a milestone in our life we wanted to remember, I left having fun and it was the utmost positive experience we’ve ever experienced! Both were 100% professional, accommodating and captured every moment. After seeing the final product of pictures we were incredibly happy as it came out perfect! Something for my son to see when he gets older. They both were so awesome we also ended up hiring them to do my engagement photos in the summer of 2019 as well after my son was born! They even made a wedding teaser video for me, which came out awesome! Harold and Abbie have a gifted talent, to capture a moment in time with their photography I’ve never seen before with past professional family photos taken when I was a child. In the end I hired them for my wedding, my second maternity shoot back in 2021 and the last two years for our holiday Christmas cards. Consider them for any event you may have, both again are extremely professional and great at what they do!

I am a storyteller, inspired by the timelessness of cinema and the beauty of honest, unguarded emotion. From the rolling hills of Hudson Valley, New York, to the sun-kissed shores of Maui, I bring a deep appreciation for the interplay of light and shadow. This dance of luminosity and depth breathes life into each image I create. Your wedding day is a chapter in a story that began long before we met —and will carry on long after. If you find beauty in romance with a touch of mystery, if you want your wedding photos to feel like visual poetry, let’s create some magic together.

Sari Wynne Photography provided the most incredible photographic experience for our wedding day. From our very first interaction, Sari's communication was fast, clear, and friendly, putting us at ease right away.

We love ALL of our photos, which is so rare. I never heard of a bride who loved every single shot their photographer took. We should have hired her for our engagement photos, but oh well. We'll be sure to hire her for all our photos because we love her and her work so much.

Photography is an artistic escape I love to have fun with! I enjoy meeting new people and stepping into their lives while capturing the love is something that sparked my joy. Photography has been a full time passion of mine since I picked up a camera in 2017. I love spending most of my time out doors in nature so I've kind of got the whole location scouting down to a 'T'. Let's go somewhere beautiful and make some memories.

5 stars honestly doesn't begin to capture our experience working with Emily. I reached out to various photographers in Maui in our search for the right fit to capture our elopement. As soon as I heard back from Emily we both knew she was the perfect fit. She totally understood our vision for an intimate, fun "adventure elopement" and she led us to a couple locations for our shoot that were UNREAL.. in addition to that she was more than happy to give hair/outfit recommendations and help us find the perfect hair/makeup artist, officiant, etc and we ended up with an absolute DREAM TEAM for our day. Our trip to Maui was met with some severe weather which wouldn't have permitted outdoor photos (talking torrential downpour and flooding) and Emily handled the situation with the utmost professionalism, calling us with her recommendations and actually rescheduling our elopement for another day she was able to clear her schedule, which was such a relief. When we FINALLY made it to our elopement day, our photo shoot was an absolute blast!! Emily instantly made us feel so comfortable despite my wife being someone who hates taking photos. Instead of setting up awkward forced prom poses she let us have fun and be ourselves and would provide just enough guidance like "move this arm here, take a step this way, or drop the bouquet down a bit" so we felt like we knew what we were doing. Lastly, the PHOTOS! OMG! Not only was the turnaround time fast, the photos easy to access and downloading very easy, but the photos were STUNNING. Like, we gawked at them for hours and can't even decide which ones to print because they're all so fantastic. Her touchups are subtle and true to color, no dramatic or obvious editing. The locations looked like something out of a fairytale, and she captured our natural poses and movements so well that you can truly see our happiness and glow in every photo Emily is friendly, easy-going, flexible, organized, professional, and WILDLY talented and if you're reading this rather lengthy review just book her now before she's booked up! (Not to mention her pricing is very reasonable, especially for the location)

Hi! I’m Lexi. I photograph couples, weddings & elopements on Maui & the surrounding Hawaiian islands, as well as everywhere else in the world. I am devoted to story telling, to avoid the “posey” and focus on the real. I am passionate about imagery that makes you feel something. More than a cute kiss on the forehead. I want to capture the smirk, the look, the snuggle, most importantly the moment. Being a photographer is more than mastering your camera, it’s about showing up vulnerable to capture human connection. Love. Because that’s what life is all about.

We love Sheyanne!!! She was and will always be the best choice for your wedding photographer! She somehow kept us calm yet hyped throughout our day and made us feel camera ready. We wanted someone that would capture the emotions of the day as well as shoot more candid photos versus posed. Her style of shooting is exactly what we wanted. We also had our wedding at a venue that Sheyanne had not photographed at before which made me initially nervous, but Sheyanne was very open about it and talked me through her process. She really took the time to get to know the venue and found beautiful and unique spots that really elevated our photos. She even took some complementary film shots! We love you Sheyanne! Thank you for our memories of our big day that we will cherish forever.

***Please be sure to contact directly through my website listed below, Zola messages are not checked regularly*** Located in Northern Kauai, the Garden Island of Hawaii. Documenting love stories with soft lit narratives and playful interactions.

We did a couple’s wedding/honeymoon photoshoot with Julia in June (sunrise at Waikoko). We found her on the Knot and from the beginning she was quick to reply and easy to communicate with, which was great for us. We took the majority of the pictures in our wedding attires - and those are some of our favorite photos of us ever - and some in bathing suits. Julia was very flexible when it came to the timing of the shoot as the weather was constantly changing. We could not avoid the rain completely, but Julia had a see through umbrella we used and those photos are so precious! She gave us enough time to finish all the poses we wanted, and delivered the photos in a timely manner! She made edits on request as well. We really love the way she captured the beauty of Kauai and also our love in our pictures. We recommend Julia Streich Photography!

Hey! I'm Angie! In a nutshell, I’m a Midwest girl living out her Neverland dreams in Maui, Hawaii. I moved to Maui in 2009 with my husband, a few suitcases, and a chance for a new beginning. It was Maui that re-ignited my love for photography. From the second I stepped off that plane, I knew that there was something special about this place; it was real-life magic. I am inspired by love, nature, and the beauty of relationships – and years from now I want you to remember how your wedding day FELT through your images.

Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the most important decisions for me and my husband, as we wanted someone who could truly capture the essence of who we are as a couple. From the very first conversation, we knew we had found the perfect fit with Angie Nelson. Her warm demeanor, unique perspective, and natural style made us confident that she would not only capture beautiful moments but also be a wonderful addition to our wedding day – we were not wrong. Angie’s presence on our wedding day was both calming and joyful. She blended in seamlessly, capturing candid moments that truly reflect our personalities and the essence of our celebration. Her photos are not just images - they are memories filled with emotion and life (she took Disney-inspired photos of us after realizing we were Disney adults!). We couldn't be happier with the results and would enthusiastically recommend her for any occasion. Thank you, Angie, for being such an integral part of our wedding day. Your talent and warmth made all the difference, and we are forever grateful for the beautiful memories you've given us.

I found my way behind the camera after years of art directing in the fashion industry in NYC. I always loved photography as it captures a moment in time, frozen forever. Taking my knowledge & experience from my fashion days, mixing it with my love for romance, love & art I made the leap to weddings. I photograph film in which I believe that is has a romantic dreamy elegance that only film can capture. I’m based in Honolulu,Hawaii, and I love to travel. Exploring the world to learn about new cultures, meet new people, get lost in a museum and drive the countrysides taking in the sublime sceneries around brings me joy.

We had Jeanne take our wedding photos for our minimony in Sept 2021. We booked her originally through our wedding planner. Covid restrictions were still in place and required a huge amount of flexibility from all vendors. Jeanne took our couples portraits, helped get everyone in place for our ceremony, and then took portraits with our family and friends. She was super easy to work with, she had a good vision for what poses and shots she wanted, and she was fun and laidback. We loved seeing our photos - they were beautiful and we are so grateful to Jeanne!

Reese's lover with huge ambitions and a fire under my feet. Quite literally!

That's right, I love traveling and the only thing that would make traveling more fun is having YOU in front of my camera. I'm seriously down to adventure anywhere! ​

Kaitlyn was great! We had some funky family dynamics and she knew exactly how to deal with them. She was great at helping facilitate at the venue and worked well with the coordinator so the day was smooth. I only have some of my photos back since the event was two weeks ago but what I got back looks amazing! 100% satisfied!
