Grace T Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Kailua, HI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500

I’m Grace Troutman. I’m a wedding & elopement photographer who loves to frequent the West Coast, Hawaii, and the Midwest (where I grew up.) I approach working with my couples on their weddings from a place of trust and compassion, so I can document the day how it is true to them. No forced moments, no stiff posing, only true to life candid imagery. 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.

Grace is pure MAGIC! We had the absolute pleasure of working with Grace for our engagement photos and our wedding day - She came highly recommended from trusted friends and when you see her work, it's easy to understand why! Grace is attentive, warm, inviting. She truly makes you feel 100% comfortable being in front of the camera which is not a small feat. By far the best investment we made throughout our entire wedding process was the decision to work with Grace and her team. We now have the most incredible photos that will last a lifetime and we could not thank Grace enough!

Kailua, HI
  • Photojournalistic style

I'm Jasmine, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Kailua, Hawaii, with over ten years of island living and a passport that stays busy. My style lives at the intersection of photojournalism and nature editorial. I shoot what is actually happening, the real tears, the stolen glances, the chaotic in-between moments, in places that make the photos extraordinary. I cover proposals, elopements, micro weddings, and full wedding days across Hawaii, US National Parks, and destinations worldwide including Europe, Canada, and Australia. I believe a wedding photo should transport you right back to that moment every single time you look at it.

Jasmine was an absolute pleasure to work with for our special day. From the moment we first reached out, she was prompt in her communication, clearly knowledgeable about her craft, and incredibly understanding of our needs and preferences. Her attention to detail and thoughtful approach shone through in the amazing final photos, which beautifully captured all the special moments of our day. Jasmine made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the process, and was incredibly accommodating to ensure we got all the shots we wanted. The whole experience was just wonderful, and the pictures turned out great - we will cherish them forever.

The goal is to create images that tell your story naturally, allowing you to relive the feeling of your day for years to come.

Oliver was an amazing photographer! My partner and I are both pretty awkward when it comes to photos and he made us look great! He was a calming presence in our very busy, chaotic day. He always had a smile and was cracking jokes. One of the biggest compliments we got for our wedding was not about the food, venue, or even our clothing but Oliver. He truly was a great photographer and person overall. We could not have picked a better person for us. We absolutely love the photos and we’re so excited to share them for years to come. The photos are beautiful and I smile every time I view them. He captured our day perfectly. Thank you so much Oliver! We truly truly appreciate your presence and the photos. Thank you!

I dont know what else to say except: YOU NEED ELLA!! If you want your pictures to be lively, bright, and fun, she is the one! We worked with her for a couple months through engagement pics up until our wedding, and I just don’t have enough good things to say about her. We provably hired a different photographer for our wedding, but the vibes were off and she did not listen to my vision. Me and my husband can be awkward in front of the camera, but she directed us and told us exactly what we needed to do. Our wedding experience would not have been the same without her! She captured the exact vision that I had and then some. 100% worth every penny. Please just book her already!!

Aloha and congrats! You’re considering to get married on the beautiful islands of Hawai’i or beyond — your own slice of paradise! Our journey together means everything to me. I capture your day in the most spontaneous, colourful, and nostalgic way possible. I’m Tâm — a full-time Dutch freelance photographer with a passion for travelling the world and documenting once-in-a-lifetime moments for wonderful couples like you.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very first time we reached out to Tâm, he was so enthusiastic and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. Before even putting together a proposal, he took the time to really listen to our ideas and get familiar with the location, which made us feel so at ease and understood. What really stood out was his initiative, he went beyond just showing up with a camera. He suggested a beautiful nature reserve near our venue for part of the photo session, something we hadn’t even thought of, and it turned out to be one of our favourite parts of the day! I was a little nervous at first, worried the photos might feel too posed or unnatural, but Tâm reassured us to just be in the moment and enjoy each other while he worked his magic. And honestly, we couldn’t be happier with the results! The photos feel so effortless, real, and full of emotion. We’re beyond grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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.

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.

Working with Mar was the absolute best! My husband and I are not the most affectionate, but when we received our pictures, we love them so much. She captured our love and our story perfectly. During my getting ready pictures, she made me comfortable and beautiful. I never felt any awkward times and she made every moment a good time. She caught the most fun pictures of my husband and I, along with our wedding party. When my Maid of Honors or coordinator were not around, she held on to my blotting sheets and lip gloss, made sure I was good, it was great! She was more than our photographer that day and we absolutely appreciated it, and loved it. It was a quick turnover and such quality work; we would recommend her to anyone!!
