Awarded Best of Zola
Got married in May of 2024 and Tara and her team were amazing. She touched bases with me the day before the wedding to go over all the details and was very knowledgeable and attentive to all of our wedding and family details. Fast forward to the wedding day and they were amazing in getting all of the photos we wanted and making sure everyone was where they needed to be. We just received our photos last week and they are absolutely beautiful. She got us the best sunset photos, even better than we could have asked for during our overcast wedding day. We are so glad we went with Tara Lee photography and would highly recommend her!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding was chaotic with family everywhere, kids running around, and lots of moving parts, but they somehow managed to capture everything so perfectly. I’m someone who usually doesn’t like photos of myself, but I can say without hesitation that I love how I look in these pictures. They didn’t miss a single detail, from the decorations on the cake to the little looks my husband and I shared. The colors in the photos are rich but still natural, not overedited. The video they created was something I’ve watched probably 30 times already it’s that good. They even caught my grandma dancing, which meant the world to me since it might be the last big family celebration she attends. The team was professional but also so fun to be around, making everyone laugh and feel comfortable. My bridesmaids couldn’t stop saying how nice they were. Delivery time was quick, and communication was always clear. This is a service that cares about people, not just about business.

Kylene frequently checked in with me to ensure I had all the vendor locations and details sorted out, and she offered invaluable insights about the area in Florida where I was getting married. She also had a detailed meeting with my husband and I to confirm our wishes for our day, which put me at ease because she took very detailed notes about what I wanted and envisioned on my day. Just before the wedding, Kylene confirmed the type of photography I wanted and which photos were most important to me. On the wedding day, she upheld all of my wishes and made sure my entire family felt included. Afterward, she provided a sneak peek of the photos incredibly quickly and put together an amazing album with my input.

I’ve shot all over the world from Iceland, Ireland, & France to all over the Midwest, all the way to California and Hawaii, and I believe that you should say “I do,” in a place that makes you feel like home.

Terra at Earth's Island Photography is an absolute rockstar. We are BEYOND THRILLED with our wedding photos (just look at them! they're incredible!) and on top of it, she was such a joy to work with from start to finish. We spent a lot of time looking at portfolios of different photographers in Hawaii, and Terra was far and above our favorite- and she captured for us exactly the beauty and love that we were so enchanted by in her portfolio. - Terra was so organized and helpful before the event, helping us with a proposed timeline for photos and travel (getting ready photos, ceremony, sunset couple photos, reception, etc), having us draft a list of the group photos we wanted to make sure to take, looking at examples for ideas of the kinds of photos we wanted, suggesting the best beaches for sunset photos, and even recommending places for our last-minute rehearsal dinner. Just everything- and it put us so at ease to have it all sorted. - She is such a kind and sweet human! She is so friendly and lovely, and made our wedding day just that more wonderful by being such a ray of sunshine. She coached us into flattering positions, she was creative and up for any shot, and she waded into the ocean and scrambled over lava rocks to make sure she go the best angles of us on the beach. Just a dream to work with. - What an expert! She knows what she's doing- and it shows. We loved that she had a ton of experience shooting weddings in Hawaii, and the photos she captured for us all day were just top-tier perfection. Her skills with the camera are exceptional, her skills with retouching are exceptional- she is such a highly-skilled photography professional and we could not have asked for better photos. Terra was so supportive, charming, and cheerful, she captured our wedding so beautifully and perfectly, and she delivered an amazing gallery of memories (faster than expected!) I cannot say enough good things about her- she is just amazing. Thank you SO MUCH Terra!

I am a lover of love and adventure. I am a pretty down person (I free dive with sharks so if that doesn't say something...) I moved to Hawaii in 4 hours notice and quit my corporate job to chase my dreams and here I am! I'm a bit of a minimalist like to think I'm pretty fun. I'm an ocean conservationist and use my skills to also educate people about human impacts and ways to make shifts in our own lives in order to help the planet. I am really big on quality over quantity. I would rather deliver a handful of WOW photos over a ton of average photos to fill a number.

My husband and I were traveling to Maui for our 4 year anniversary and we were looking for adventure photos to document our trip. I searched and searched and finally found Taylor and immediately knew I HAD to book with her. The entire experience was fantastic. She was extremely professional but also super personable, my husband and I immediately felt comfortable with her. We trusted her every second of the experience- from asking what outfit would look best, to whatever location she thought would be best, and then went in to the session with no expectations other than to let her do what she does best. And I just have to say, Taylor does more than just capture images she captures absolute art. The images from this trip are images we are going to cherish for the rest of our lives! I'm already trying to plan another trip to Hawaii just so we can work with Taylor again.

Hi, I’m Megan—a film photographer based on Oʻahu and in Colorado, traveling worldwide. I’m passionate about preserving the magic of weddings through the timeless beauty of analog photography. My work is rooted in honest, artful moments—candid, unscripted, and full of feeling. I love the texture, warmth, and intention that film brings, and I’d be honored to document your day with images that feel both timeless and true.

Megan flew from Oahu to the Big Island to shoot our wedding in Kona back in January and I have only good things to say about her. She was so sweet and easy to work with through the whole process. We met with her on a call before the wedding to discuss our vision and she was able to help me narrow down our packed shot list and schedule for the day. Of course things don't go as planned the day of and she was flexible when we had a few changes during get ready photos. My husband has captured many of our moments on film so it was important to us that we found a photographer who shot film for our wedding photos. Megan did offer to shoot a mix of film and digital but we both agreed that the feel of film was what we were looking for. Megan took such amazing care to capture all the big and little moments from our day. Within a couple weeks Megan delivered over 500 images to us in a digital photo album for us to download. We are overjoyed to have these beautiful images to look back onto for the rest of our lives.

What began as a casual hobby of snapping photos on our travels, slowly grew into something much more. Now, it’s our passion and purpose... capturing life’s most precious moments for others.

Makamae Moments, LLC was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, their communication style was simple, direct, informative, patient, and fun. They took the time to understand our vision and made the entire process seamless. The quality of their work is exceptional - they were efficient, ensured our pictures turned out beautifully, and made sure we felt well taken care of and comfortable throughout the day. They had a keen eye for detail and were able to mentally visualize the perfect shots, making it all work perfectly with the scenery. We are thrilled with the final results and would highly recommend Makamae Moments to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photography experience!

Guillermo (Willy) Navarro is an award-winning photographer passionate about capturing love stories with elegance and emotion. With experience spanning hundreds of weddings and events, his signature cinematic style transforms special moments into timeless works of art. “Photographing weddings in Hawaii is about more than just taking pictures—it’s about telling a love story. I strive to capture every moment with emotion and glamour, turning fleeting memories into lasting treasures.”

My husband and I did a couples shoot with Guillermo Navarro, and we honestly can’t say enough good things about the experience. We're both naturally pretty shy, so we weren’t sure what to expect—but from the very first message, he put us at ease with his professionalism, warmth, and clear communication. He was reliable, punctual, and incredibly easy to work with. You can tell right away that he’s experienced—not just in how he handles the technical side, but in how he reads people and creates a comfortable, relaxed environment. What could’ve been an awkward or stiff session turned into one of the most fun and memorable afternoons! He guided us throughout the shoot with just the right balance—tailoring everything to our personalities and what we were hoping for, but also giving us creative direction that made a huge difference in how the shots turned out. We found ourselves laughing, being goofy, and totally forgetting we were even posing. Some of our favorite photos came out of those spontaneous moments he captured so naturally. His background in film is definitely reflected in the final images—they’re cinematic, intimate, and just so beautiful! The final photos were delivered quickly, and we’re genuinely obsessed with them. If you’re even thinking about booking a photographer, do yourself a favor and go with Guillermo. You want this guy! Thank you so much, Guillermo!

I don't have words to thank her for the things she did for us. I appreciated every click, every moment. She helped me with absolutely everything before and during my elopement. Even when we were in completely different zones. She understood exactly how my husband and I wanted our memories to be told and eternalized. She will always gonna be in our best memory!
