Cocktail hour at weddings can often be seen as just a filler between the ceremony and the reception. But if you ask me, it’s one of the most important parts of the big day! Here’s why you should seriously consider making your cocktail hour a long and leisurely affair. Your cocktail hour at your wedding…
April and Kyle had a beautiful oceanfront Maui wedding at the Kukahiko Estate in Makena. This was my first wedding after COVID hit and I could not be more thankful that it was April and Kyle’s wedding. There were only family members present which couldn’t have been more perfect, especially after the craziness of the…
Almost a year ago, Brooke reached out to me with her own little secret “We’re planning to get married. But it’s going to be really small. And I want you to photograph it. Oh – and it’s going to be in Hana.” Hana. One of my favorite places on this little rock in the middle…
Sometimes when I’m reminiscing on past weddings, I forget all the little details. Micaela and Jon’s Maui oceanfront wedding – man, that was one for the books. The special dances, the sunset that night, the Lakers shot, all the special little touches throughout the day; their day was really special to me. On many different…
What do dinosaurs, Freddie Mercury, and chicken nugget bouquets have in common? Easy. They were all intricate parts of Alyx and Denise’s Hotel Wailea wedding. I mean, don’t spoil it and scroll to the bottom – but I know you’re curious. In all seriousness though, I don’t think I’ve ever seen two people more candidly…
From the moment I met Jayann and Eric, I knew that their wedding would be intimate, gorgeous, and have a raging party. And boy do I love being right! Their Andaz Maui wedding was full of so many special moments with their friends and family. The Andaz is one of my favorite hotels on Maui….
I swear to you I’ve never seen a group of better-dressed wedding guests than at this Maui Tropical Plantation wedding with Patrick and Melissa. The groomsmen wore tuxes and every lady in attendance looked like something straight out of the Great Gatsby. The day began at Melissa’s condo in Wailea as the girls got ready…
Of all the weddings I’ve shot – this is one that I will always hold near and dear to my heart. It’s one that I’ll reflect back on when I’m having a hard day. One that I’ll remember when I question my capacity as an artist and one that will bring me back to the…
Nearly 200 guests. Scorching hot temperatures. Lots of Mehndi. Plenty of blessings. Three days of celebration for Kristie and Tagh. And because it was my first time being a Maui Sikh Wedding Photographer, I had a lot to learn about culture, ceremony, and what an epic three day wedding looks like! I met Kristie and…
Within the first 10 minutes of meeting Heather and Brad, I knew I had hit the ideal client jackpot. They were laid back, had an AMAZING sense of humor (as displayed by the groomsmen’s shirts), and, I later learned, were party animals. Basically, this White Orchid Beach House Wedding was a wedding I would relive…
