Family vacations on Maui are a special treat and what better way to remember them than with a professional photography session on one of Maui’s world famous beaches? There’s probably a digital camera for every member of your group but that also means every picture you bring home will have one person missing! Give us a call and let our team capture your entire group, all together, during a relaxed and casual Maui family portrait session. We always have an assistant at the shoot to create that magazine look we all like and we always provide an edited cd of high resolution digital images along with full reproduction rights. Please call us at 1-808-242-1100 to book your session. It’s fun, easy and a great way to capture your Maui Memories.

We get to do the occasional local wedding here in Maui and it’s always fun to hook up with one of Maui’s ohana and get some great imagery. Yesterday, we had the pleasure of spending a few hours with Kahikolu and Kimo who married in a small church here in Wailuku and then had a lavish lunch reception at the King Kamehameha golf course (The poke was ono). It was your typical Maui Wedding Day - Warm, bright and breezy. So breezy, that we almost lost a flex fill but one of the guests was kind enough to chase it down the hill. Mahalo! Here’s a couple of images from the event.

As professional Maui Photographers, we have the honor of photographing folks from all across the globe. While we love ALL our clients, some of them sparkle and shine like no others. Such was the case with Christelle and Jefferey. A couple, obviously very much in love with a beautiful family in tow, we were privileged to photograph their wedding at Kapalua Bay on July 28, 2010. Rev. Pia did his usual outstanding job and the evening was perfect! Some pictures of the event follow.

April is always a busy month here on the valley isle; the weather is beautiful, cool crisp nights and bright sunny days that hover around 80 degrees. Perfect for ocean kayaking or a round of drinks at the pool bar. Rochelle and Hedley decided April was a good month to tie the knot so they talked a group of their friends and family, some of them from down under, into taking the plane ride out to paradise. I’m sure they didn’t have to twist their arms! The wedding was beautiful and the weather cooperated with us. After a bright blue wedding we finished with a gorgeous Makena Sunset.

Maui Commercial Photography

While we spend a lot of time doing wedding photography, we are also Maui commercial photographers and enjoy the assignments that come along in that arena. Recently, we had the opportunity to do an estate in Kaanapali for magazine publication. The home was a beautiful one, with outrageous ocean and island views, where you could sit on your lanai and watch the skins tournament. We got some killer images and had a good time doing it.

Lighting and staging a house is radically different from the wedding photography we do and requires a whole host of equipment we never use on location for a beach gig. In some ways it’s easier, because the house doesn’t move around or get emotional, but in other ways it presents challenges you’ll never have at a wedding. It’s good to do different things and we’re glad to have the opportunity.

As wedding photographers in Maui, we have had the privilege to photograph people from all around the world at some of the most pristine beaches on the planet. Occasionally we are blessed with a passing shower but they are generally brief and tend to cool things down. Most people are unaware of how dry Maui really is. Maui Rainfall averages vary from over 300 inches per year at Puu Kukui in the west Maui mountains, to 12 inches per year in the Kihei/Wailea/Makena area. Most of the beaches we use fall in the 12 inch category, so rain is rare. I’m posting a shot of a wedding we did at Kapalua Bay in April, you can see how beautiful the weather was. This representation is the norm rather than the exception.

Alicia and Mike caught a fantastic Maui sunset last night. We haven’t seen one this intense in a while. While sunset is always pretty spectacular, this one went on for quite a while and kept getting more intense. Alicia and Mike had booked us several years ago and gave it another go this year, Thanks, guys! I think we got some killer images.

Maui Wedding Photography, Destination Weddings

A Maui destination wedding is one of the best ways to tie the knot. Maui has a large pool of professional photographers, awesome venues, reliable wedding planners and some of the best catering on earth. We were fortunate to have the chance to photograph Candice and Josh at the Haiku Mill, a rustic and beautiful wedding venue on the north shore of Maui. I’m posting a few shots from the wedding from inside the guest house where brides often get ready, as well as some shots from the outside. We have photographed Maui weddings at every major venue in Maui so if you’re looking for a private venue, call us for the photography, we’re well acquainted with the particulars of every location.

Maui Wedding, Kapalua Bay

On June 3rd, 2010 we had the pleasure of photographing Mary Kate and Dan at a morning ceremony on Kapalua Bay Beach. The morning was cool, as is usual and a little cloudy which softens the light and acts like a huge softbox. The wedding was intimate, about 15 guests in attendance and was beautiful.

What about the sunset, you say? Simple, Mary Kate booked us for the next evening, in a different location, to do those shots. The morning wedding gives the family a free day to celebrate and the evening sunset session the next day gives the couple a chance to rest and go at it again.

Mahalo Mary Kate and Dan. Much happiness and Aloha.

What a privilege to live here on Maui doing what we love to do. It’s always a treat to take a group of people who have never been here before and bring them to one of Maui’s pristine beaches for a heartfelt wedding ceremony and photo shoot after. Even folks who’ve been coming here for years are surprised by some of the out of the way spots we know and delighted by them.
