I wouldn’t trade my job for anything. It’s a huge honor and privilege to photograph passionate celebrations between families and friends. My clients let me into their personal space and trust me to document with honesty and grace their deepest emotions: their love, their tears, their laughs, and their fears. For this I am grateful beyond words. While weddings are 90 percent of my work, they are not all of my work — and honestly, I think that’s a good thing. Shooting families & children keeps me inspired and allows me to see the world differently, which plays into how I document events

My husband and I are probably the biggest fans of Aloha Zoe Photography! They photographed us for our adventure elopement on June of 2023 and it was the most amazing day of our lives! They were extremely helpful when planning our trip out to Hawaii, and they also listened to all of the ideas that we had for our special day. They helped answer any questions that we had about travelling to Hawaii all the way from Missouri, and they were so helpful with planning our entire trip! We thoroughly enjoyed spending our morning with Ryan and would highly recommend to anyone thinking about booking with them. We were able to be ourselves completely and not worry about other's opinions for our day.

Kamuela, HI
  • Photojournalistic style

As a child, I fell in love with Hawaii. When the opportunity presented itself in 2015 for me to return to the state permanently, I jumped at the opportunity. I relocated myself and the business to the Big Island, and have been living on the Island of Hawai’i ever since. After serving our nation as an Officer in the Air Force, I went back to school for a Masters in Counseling Psychology and accidentally found a passion for photography. Realizing that I love hearing and seeing the stories that surround us, I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in Professional Photography and founded Creation Swells Photography.

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

San Francisco, CA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,888
  • Serves Kailua Kona, HI

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Sarah was absolutely fantastic. From the beginning, communication was smooth and effortless, with prompt responses to emails and even video conferences to discuss details. Our photography package included an engagement photoshoot in addition to wedding photography. The quality of the photos from both our engagement session and wedding day was outstanding. One of the highlights was receiving a few 'preview pictures' shortly after each shoot, allowing us to enjoy some beautiful moments right away. The pricing was transparent, and the payment portal was easy to use, making the financial aspects stress-free. Throughout the process, Sarah provided invaluable advice on shot lists and was incredibly easy to work with when it came to posing. If we had a specific idea or location in mind for a photo, she not only took the lead but also enhanced our vision beyond what we could have imagined. She also emailed us ideas and example photos for different locations for our engagement photoshoot, helping us make our vision a reality. On our wedding day, Sarah took many photos throughout our events, including getting ready in the bridal suite, first looks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and reception. She was excellent at directing our family members to ensure we got all our posed family photos. Sarah also took some beautiful shots of just us post-ceremony. Throughout the dinner and reception, we felt at ease and relaxed knowing Sarah was there capturing every moment. Beyond the professional aspects, our interactions with our photographer made us feel like we were working with a close friend. She always helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera, despite us being introverted and inexperienced with being professionally photographed. Her support and encouragement throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding were truly appreciated and added to the overall wonderful experience. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a talented and personable photographer for their special day.

If you're in search of a photographer who will capture your wedding day seamlessly & eloquently...look no further. I can't rave enough about how beautiful our wedding day album turned out. From planned shots to the candids, it's exactly what I had envisioned. Katilin did such an awesome job of maneuvering around grabbing shots here and there and snapping shots of our day authentically. On top of it all, she was so friendly which made the experience even sweeter. It was easy to be comfortable around her and open up to the pictures. After the wedding day, sneak peek pictures were delivered promptly and she continued to keep us in the know of when to expect the full album. I would highly recommend her to any couple getting married!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Grace T Photography was the single best wedding planning decision I made and I would do it again in an instant. From our first conversation to the most recent, everything was seamless. Going in, I knew her photography was perfection. What I was not expecting to receive was 800 flawless photos just from our wedding day alone, not to mention the adventure session (which she went above and beyond for) and engagement session. Her photo style captures so much EMOTION and viewing them takes us right back to the day. She also made getting photos taken fun! I couldn't help but laugh during our entire engagement session at how much fun my (now) husband was having (he typically dislikes taking even 1 photo). Additionally, I cannot get over Grace’s service. Grace has a relaxed vibe about her while remaining 1000% on top of everything. It is contagious and it put even my ever racing mind to ease. It allowed me to be SO much more present on our wedding day and for that I will FOREVER be grateful. I appreciate Grace allowing me to put complete trust in her and continuing to do laps around my already high expectations. Did I mention that this was all while Grace and Kyle received the most devasting family news on the morning of our wedding (which I had no clue about until later)? Their selflessness seriously bring tears to my eyes. Thank you, Grace & Kyle. Seriously. You will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Photography is an artistic escape I love to have fun with! I enjoy meeting new people and stepping into their lives while capturing the love is something that sparked my joy. Photography has been a full time passion of mine since I picked up a camera in 2017. I love spending most of my time out doors in nature so I've kind of got the whole location scouting down to a 'T'. Let's go somewhere beautiful and make some memories.

Emily was incredible! I truly don’t have words for how amazing our experience was with her! Working with her was fun, easy and her photography skills are top tier! My wedding photos look out of a magazine! I cried when I saw them. They were more than I could have ever imagined! I’m so thankful I came across her work and had the pleasure of working with her on our special day. She managed our wedding party of 18 and our wedding of 60guests with no hiccups, no issues and ran the show perfectly. I hope our paths cross again in the future! Thank you Emily for everything!

I find that I thrive most when I get to work with couples who are so involved in the moment, they don’t care much about a wrinkle in their dress or a misplaced hair.

Once we got Marci on board, I felt immediately at ease about the wedding. I knew that, no matter what happened, no matter what details about the day wouldn't go perfectly, we would have great photos and the end of it all. She offered so much of herself before the actual date to check in with us and make sure we could talk about anything we wanted on the day. I love how everything she does feels intimate, natural, and captures the 2 people just as they are. I highly recommend booking Mars Takes Photos for your special day.

A creative soul, a love for romance, passionate to tell your love story. I am always seeking for true connection between humans, the genuine real type of connection. I believe, at the end of the day, these true moments, even the smallest ones, are what mean the most. Weddings are filled with these fleeting moments and the fact that I get to document them, stop time and hand them to you to be remembered forever means more than you may ever know. I can't wait for our paths to cross, to hear all about your ideas and plans for the day.

We LOVED our engagement photos but our wedding photos were/are something to obsess over. She captured the whole day really really well. If there was one thing that I would change I would just want more pics of the 2 of us laughing and having big genuine smiles. Sometimes getting your pictures taken can be a little awkward so anything to help with getting those big smiles on camera helps.

My style leans towards the editorial and documentary style and I am passionate about capturing moments as they unfold.

I know that you are putting so much thought and care into every detail, and your gallery will hold all those memories to last a lifetime. I have a passion for travel and am happy to follow you to your dream destination. I look forward to connecting with you and making your wedding day everything you want it to be.

After our engagement shoot with Heather I was immediately so relieved that I had booked her as my wedding photographer. She’s so easy going, funny, and transparent! Heather made us a mood board to capture the vibe of our engagement shoot, spent so much time posing us and researching locations for the shoot. She was so easy to get along with and knew exactly what I wanted! She sent my previews (so many!) the next day and I was in tears with how gorgeous they were. The photos sparked a new excitement for wedding planning for me, and I really can’t stop looking at them! Do not hesitate booking Heather. She will make you feel beautiful, comfortable, and confident! Book her!

I want to capture all your in-between moments, those are my favorite, the way you guys sneak looks and steal kisses. I don’t want to be just another person who shows up and waves a black box in your face. I want your photos to represent your effortless connection, the closeness with your person, and all the other things that make you guys YOU! I am inspired by your love and I want to capture YOUR raw and real story. I want to tell it through my photos. And the fact that no else has been in my shoes, I see the world through eyes that no one else has. That’s what makes me different. Also NO TRAVEL FEE anywhere in the states!!

We got married in June 2022, and even now looking at our photos and video has us in disbelief at how Ruzin beautifully captured our special day. It’s like we’re viewing someone else’s wedding, but it’s actually ours! Throughout wedding planning, she went above and beyond for us and we can’t truly express our gratitude. She takes the time to get personal and get to know you well and understand your vision to help take it to the next level. We’ve seen many wedding photos, but hands down ours were the best. Choosing her was the best decision we made!

This enchanting corner of the world - with its rugged mountains and sweeping coastlines - is the ultimate stage for unforgettable elopements. Because love, in all its forms, is magical. It stretches, it soothes, it heals. From heart-tugging proposals and starry-eyed engagements to secret elopements and joyous weddings, I live to frame these moments that make hearts flutter.

Working with Kim was a complete delight. We wanted a photographer with lots of experience and ideas who would boss us around so that it was one less thing for us to worry about. Kim was fun to work with, and made it so easy by coming prepared with lots of shot ideas and direction. We're in love with our photos, and will absolutely hire her again!

The photo was taken by me and I would guess with a basic point and shoot camera so the quality is not the best, kinda blurry, the colors are washed out but I LOVE that photo. That photo signifies to be to always be present and in the moment, because that’s the last photo I was able to take of my grandfather. As a photographer, that photo tells a story, its dated, its memorable and its timeless.

Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

We had a very specific aesthetic we were aiming for and he absolutely nailed it.

Wow!! Working with Gabriella was an absolute treat! When we were looking for a wedding photographer, I stumbled onto her Instagram page and fell in love with her work. For our wedding photos, we wanted real photos, not overly edited, too dark or too light and Gabriella’s work caught our eyes. From her angles to the way she captured the beauty in everything she shot. When I kept comparing the work of others to hers, I knew we had to book her for our wedding! From start to finish, Gabriella was so good at making us feel comfortable and natural. I am so thankful we booked the engagement session before the wedding because it gave us a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera and get to know Gabriella!! Through the planning process, Gabriella was diligent to check in to see if we needed anything and gave super helpful tips. With just a few weeks out, I found myself calling Gabriella once a week with little questions or last minute confirmations. She always met my phone calls with compassion and willingness to answer anything! Now, wedding day!!! Gabriella arrived on time and ready to jump into action! Through the chaos of the day, she worked around everything in the background and introduced herself to everyone. She was totally my calm through the day, I didn’t feel like I needed to know my timeline because I was certain she had it down. Even if things did not go as planned, she kept my priorities at the forefront and never made me worry. She was sure we hit all of our major points of the day. Gabriella was so easy to be comfortable in front of. Some of our most intimate moments, like the first look with my dad and groom, reading our letters, and opening gifts- Gabriella captured them beautifully and gracefully. The entire day, we were able to be completely enamored with one another and did not worry about where our photographers were. They captured beautiful photos without being overbearing or intrusive. Before Gabriella left for the night, she was sure to say goodbye to us as well as both of our parents. It is personal touches like that, that make your photographer. Everyone in the wedding party commented on how great our photographers were. For our engagement photos and our wedding photos, Gabriella went above and beyond with our sneak peaks! She promptly sent us a HUGE gallery, that we fell in love with! It was great to share them immediately with friends and family, and they all drooled over the photos too! Our photos were clearly, unapologetically, us. She enhanced the natural beauty that was around us. Our experience with Gabriella exceeded our hopes and perfectly captured our love.

Hi! My name is Valerie! I am a hopeless romantic who wants to be behind the lens of your love story. I fell in love with photography in my high school darkroom. I went on to major in media and communication at University of Washington with a focus on visual arts. I have always been a story teller, a big feeler and obsessed with all things love, so photographing weddings is quite literally living my dream. I have photographed over 130 weddings and have the same passion for them as when I first started. I cannot see myself doing anything else.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I booked Valerie after we had to cancel our first wedding date due to covid since our initial photographer wasn't available. We are so thankful we did! After canceling, my husband and I decided to exchange vows in New Orleans and it was an absolute DREAM! Valerie was more than willing to come along with us. Not only was Valerie the absolutely sweetest and so easy to work with, but she captured some of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen. Several of which look straight out of a magazine. A friend I know who is in the wedding industry said they were the most beautiful wedding pictures she has ever seen. Thank you Valerie for the perfect dream day! We will forever cherish the pictures you captured for us.

I'm a CA based and travel wedding photographer. I've photographed almost 200 weddings, and every single one goes by so quickly. I love my job because even though the day goes by fast, I get to find and capture those small moments, sometimes just a fraction of a second long, so they can be relived over and over in photographs. I have a photojournalistic and editorial style, plus 9 years of wedding experience under my belt, so trust me that I've got it while you are able to fully enjoy your day and be present.

We absolutely loved working with Holly Castillo Photography on our wedding day. Holly was a delight to work with: friendly, relaxed, and knowledgeable. During the ceremony and the reception, Holly quietly and unobtrusively snapped away, capturing some truly wonderful and emotional images. When it came time for posed group and couple photos, Holly was efficient and communicated direction clearly but didn't give the air of being rushed, so everyone was able to feel at ease in what can sometimes be an awkward experience. I'm hoping not to have another wedding of my own, but I would book Holly again in a heartbeat if I did!

Hi I’m Abby! been told all my life that I have an artistic flair and a gift for creativity, but that’s not the only reason why I started my career in wedding photography. I’m the biggest romantic and feel things deeply — in my photography there’s no detail in your connection that goes unnoticed. The little winks and smirks that silently set your soul on fire, the quirks that stay hidden to everybody else but you, and the parts of them that somehow make you fall in love with them even more… They’re how I tell stories because I know that in time, those are the things you’ll cherish the most.

Abby is such an incredible photographer and human to work with! She is positive, communicative, and I love her energy. I worked with her on a wedding I was coordinating and appreciated her check ins, questions, open communication, and desire to support me and honor the couple and their vision. I highly recommend working with her - the day will go smoothly and you will have hundreds of beautiful photos of the memories!

Quality: Jay was excellent. He captured so many great moments, great candids. Anything he lined up took a beautifully natural, but edgy look. He's great at this and it shows in his work and the way he makes his subjects feel comfortable and confident during the shoot. Responsiveness: he responded to all of our inquiries immediately, the weeks and months leading up to the wedding, until the day of, always communicating. Then kept us posted on the status of the photos after... which, by the way, were done within TWO WEEKS of the wedding. He even sent us some sneak peeks a few days after so we could share on social media. Professionalism: we contacted Jay to do a boudoir shoot prior to the wedding, which is always odd and a bit nerve-wracking bringing a stranger into such a personal setting, but he was professional to the extreme, great coaching, made us laugh and feel comfortable and had us looking our best. Value: he was with us for the entire day of the wedding, trying to catalog every moment as it happened. For the price, for his style and incredible skill, for the speed of return, for HOW MANY photos we got back (over 1,000!), his value can't be beat. Flexibility: he shot our private boudoir (indoors), pre-wedding (outdoors), wedding with friends and family, around-town reception on Halloween night - vast array of settings and styles with seamless transition. The dude is just that good. You're done shopping around.

I know the ins & outs of weddings because I live them every weekend & know the very real stress that comes with planning a wedding. Hiring me means being able to rest + relax knowing that everything is taken care of; somebody anticipating your needs before you even know them. I'm your hype girl, confidant, & the one to open the dance floor.

Look no further if you are searching for that special, amazing wedding photographer. Kara is incredibly talented, highly organized, kind, fun and easy to work with! My husband and I were absolutely blown away by the beauty and quality of our wedding photos! I can not express enough how Kara has the perfect balance of talent/creativity, organization and professionalism. I was impressed by her from the start, she is a real pro, and her sweet and laid back demeanor is so very calming on your wedding day! My bridal party loved her and said how comfortable she made everyone. Her photos speak for themselves. I will cherish our wedding photos forever, and you will too!!
