Awarded Best of Zola
Loulu Palm Farm Estate was absolutely breathtaking and the perfect place for our wedding. I had only done a virtual tour beforehand, and while it looked beautiful online, it is even better in person—truly stunning and it did not disappoint at all. The vendor list provided by the venue is excellent, and I’ve been getting amazing feedback from our guests, as well as from people who have only seen our videos and photos. Everyone keeps saying how gorgeous the location is. Adding Ashley as our wedding coordinator was hands down the best decision we made. She is a must. Ashley helped me so much throughout the planning process, always answering questions and guiding us every step of the way. On the wedding day, when our baker completely forgot to make our wedding cake, Ashley immediately stepped in, coordinated a replacement cake, secured us a full refund, and truly advocated for us. She even encouraged the baker to send an apology gift—we ended up finding a treat box waiting for us at our hotel after the wedding. Ashley went above and beyond, and her support made all the difference. Loulu Palm Farm Estate is a gorgeous venue, and with the right coordinator, it becomes an unforgettable experience. I couldn’t recommend this place more.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I finally saved up for our dream wedding in Hawaii, the best choice we ever had was to have Masha as our photographer! If you are tight on the funds, we opted out of a wedding planner and allocated are funds to a very good photographer. I am baseline awkward and she was able to make me look like a model! She is very professional, always on time/punctual with appointments and prompt email replies. She has a very in depth understanding of shadows, light, angles. I appreciate how she directs us on poses and she is very accommodating. She has a wide range of photography styles but we chose her for her editorial photography style like Vogue or Elle magazine, which is very hard to do. Would strongly recommend to anyone.

We got married at Sunset Ranch in September 2025, and it was everything we dreamed of and more. The setting is absolutely breathtaking, surrounded by lush greenery, sweeping views, and a peaceful, romantic atmosphere. Every part of the property felt intentional and special, from the ceremony at Fern’s Garden to cocktail hour at Sunset Vista and the reception at Charlie’s Pond. What truly made our experience unforgettable was the incredible team behind it all. Ronda and the entire Sunset Ranch Ohana were amazing to work with. They were kind, organized, and so genuine in making sure everything went smoothly. We felt supported throughout the entire planning process and on the wedding day itself, which allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment.

Jen did my hair and makeup for my Indian/traditional wedding and I could not have been happier. I was very stressed about my wedding because I did not know what to expect and it was very large being an Indian wedding. I also was changing from a traditional Indian dress to a white wedding dress during the reception and I wanted my hair to change as well. Jen stayed as a guest for the wedding and helped me redue my hair for the new dress as well as change which was not easy at my venue. She went above and beyond for me and I could not recommend her more.

I got involved with the University radio station (90.1 FM), started doing live events, and really loved showing off my rare music finds. Nothing beats the feeling of rocking a live crowd for track after track, especially after the long pause in events! DJing is all I do for "work", and I love it! Each wedding or event I play is full of different people and different ages from all over the world, and they all have differing tastes in music- blending so many different genres and styles of music is such a fun challenge!

DJ Roman Candles was excellent! He pulled off a set that was beyond our wildest dreams. We had a brief phone meeting a week before the wedding about how we wanted the vibe to be and he pulled it off perfectly. Us and our guests were blown away by his performance. After the wedding, all of our guests were raving how awesome he was! He blended all of our requested genres. The transitions between genres and between songs were spot on! He had all of our guests up and dancing. Our wedding coordinator said he was very easy to work and communicate with. He was very organized and had all the equipment we needed. He also took care of the emcee duties and did an awesome job! He had an app we could use to upload all of our song requests. We found it very useful for organizing the songs we wanted played at each part of the night. He totally killed it and we could not imagine anyone doing better. 10/10. We can’t stop watching videos of how fun the night went! Totally recommend DJ Roman Candles for your wedding or any other events!!!

I truly don't even know where to begin. In less than two weeks Charina and her incredible team pulled together an absolutely breathtaking wedding, something I didn't think was possible. What could have been overwhelming and stressful turned into a calm, seamless and dreamy experience because of her and her team. From the beginning, Charina stepped in with grace, professionalism, and unmatched attention to detail. She listened to every detail and executed it. On the wedding day everything flowed so smoothly. We had no cares in the world. Her team was just so exceptional, organized, kind, responsive, and clearly passionate about what they do. You could feel how much heart they poured into making our day perfect. Izumi did my hair and makeup. I truly cannot recommend her enough. I sent her just a few inspiration photos of what i wanted and she brought every single detail to life flawlessly. I don't know how to do my own hair and makeup at all and she made absolute magic happen. She made me feel so comfortable, confident and beautiful, exceeding anything I could have imagined. June, the day of coordinator at the beach, took care of everything from the moment we arrived at the beach. She was calm, organized and completely on top of every detail. Knowing June was there allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the ceremony without worrying about a single thing. I also asked for the impossible. I asked for Plumeria flowers for my bouquet. And red plumeria flowers for our leis. June literally climbed trees for me to make this happen. Chihiro was our photographer. The photos are absolutely amazing. She captured every special moment so beautifully and naturally, allowing us to relive the day through her work. The images are stunning. The wedding was just the two of us, so we were relying on the photos to tell our story of the day, and she captured it so perfectly. Leilani was our officiant, and she was truly amazing. From the very beginning, it was clear how deeply she cared. She brought so much warmth, sincerity and heart to every word making our ceremony feel meaningful, special ,and perfect.

My couples enjoy curated experiences and thrive on exploring exotic landscapes to create memorable organic moments. I enjoy a multi-layered approach that infuses editorial touches and fine-art styles while still highlighting the candid, authentic moments of your celebration. My pursuit of impeccable details pushes me to continually evolve my vision while reminding me of the importance of carrying my camera with humor, compassion, and curiosity.

We were left in TEARS! Each photograph captured the essence of our day in such a beautiful & authentic way. It was like reliving every moment, every emotion, all over again. Book her now, if looking since she only takes a handful of weddings each year.

Aloha, I'm Mai, the photographer who will be capturing your day from start to finish. My passion for capturing your special moments is something that I can't get enough of. There's just something so beautiful in telling someone's love story through my lens that is just so magical it has me wanting to do it Every, Single, Second. I consider photography to be an Art of storytelling and I would be honored to be a part of your day. Allow me to capture your love story, so that you can tell it to others.

Ah such a great experience working with Mai shooting our maternity photos. She was truly a pleasure for us to work with from start to finish. So professional. So sweet and accommodating to our needs and concerns. She was so helpful in positioning us and giving pointers on how to look more natural and flattering. She helped make me feel comfortable in front of the camera which is rare for me. And also loved that she really took to heart the inspo photos I shared with her beforehand. We are so happy with how these turned out and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to book a shoot! She is a versatile photographer and was also especially sweet with our 2 year old daughter, which really does mean so much!!

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.

If you want one-after-another STUNNING images that take you immediately back to the emotions felt on the happiest day of your life… every single time you look through your wedding album…. Hire Taylor Walston. Her energy is peaceful, she made our sloppily-planned adventure so much fun, and she’s truuuuuly down for anything during your session. My husband and I decided to elope on a whim in HI…. But before we made any plans, I made a deal with him. We’d do it, only if Taylor was available for our date. After our original wedding plan fell thru during C*VID, we wanted to do the dang thing in a beautiful place with absolutely no stress and no real “plans” aside from saying our vows somewhere stunning with our parents to withness. I had a dress… but no photographer. I followed Taylor’s work months before we ever decided to elope and knew it HADDD to be her. The movement and genuine emotion/energy in her photos was exactly what we wanted. When Jake and I decided to do this (bc Taylor said yes), we really had such low expectations for how everything was going to play out - esp as last minute and “thrown together” it all was. But when we met her in person, it was just 5000 times better than we could’ve ever dreamed/hoped for. She thrives on spontaneity which was perfectttt for us. She was such a breath of fresh air to work with and really connects with you both as a couple. She was the cherry on top of this day for us. Our whole group was talking about how easy she was to work with and how seamless the day was because of her. I’m beyond thankful Taylor was behind the lens on a day we’ll never forget. 12/10 experience. 6 stars. Absolutely recommend to any and everyone! Thank you for everything Taylor!!

Aloha! My name is Sarah and I am so excited that you're considering me to capture your special memories. I'm a wedding and couples photographer based on O'ahu, but I am always up for island hopping or going anywhere beyond!

A mutual friend recommended Sarah and I am so glad they did. Our wedding being relocated to Alabama due to COVID in June of 2021, and Sarah jumped in and made it the best. She helped make the planning for and the day of go so smoothly, and she was a fun companion for the day. She communicates quickly and clearly. She has great ideas for the "staged/posed photos" and the ones we requested, and captured all of our silly dance moves. She definitely wants the best for the people she works with and wants their input every step of the way. On top of all that, she is a great photographer and her beautiful photos of our wedding day are so special. I highly recommend working with Sarah.

Sugako was INCREDIBLE to work with. I was a destination bride and my entire wedding was traveling from the mainland. I booked the venue and all of the vendors sight unseen so there was a lot of anxiety going into how it would all pan out. When I arrived, oh my goodness. Words cannot describe how on top of things Sugako was. I texted her multiple times, at any time of the day, leading up to the wedding and she was prompt and had the answers to everything. The vision came to life more than I could’ve imagined. Destination brides- this is your girl. You will not have to worry about a single thing. Sugako we loved you!!! Cannot rave about her services enough as a wedding coordinator.
