Kristina + Scott { Elegant romantic Classy Hawaii destination wedding in Kauai Beach House }

This wedding has all the magic ingredients for an amazing and truly inspiring Hawaiian destination wedding. Little did I know I was gonna encounter such an amount of striking love all around, what a spectacular combination of beautiful people, the Bride a dedicated ocean lover who works with dolphins! and the groom, a Pilot - can anybody ask for a more spectacular power couple?! I was so excited to make the trip to Kauai for this love affair in company of my all time Bff photographer Caitlin for a mega teamwork to capture this lovely couple's everlasting love. The styling of the wedding was ooh la la, so classy and elegant with traditional white and blush as the main colors with touches of gold here and there, putting the modern touch at The Beach House restaurant which they chose for tying the knot.

But what definitely strikes me the most about the future Mr and Mrs was, without a doubt, their contagious smiles. Kristina gave me an overdose of smiles I will be bragging about for years to come, such a charming and lovely spirit, the huge wedding party just added up the cherry on top to make this celebration the most happily ever after. Hope you enjoy.

Emily + Andrew {Rustic Boho Chic Wedding at Tradewinds Ranch}

This next wedding was so amazing that it will stick with me forever. It's such a pleasure for me to hop on the plane to breathtaking Oahu's north shore to capture all the beauty of this Ranch chic wedding. From Emily’s gorgeous lace crop top wedding ensemble to the selection of handmade favors and the furniture that was flown in from the mainland, I just couldn’t get enough of all the fun details and the texture that surrounded me. It was an overload of eye candy for my lenses!

But beyond the details, what I will remember most is the genuine kindness shown to me by the couple and their family. I first met Emily and Andrew when I came to my neighbor island a couple of months in advance to do their engagement shoot, and from the beginning, they were so warm and sweet. During the excitement of wedding day, each and every single person and even the little ones truly made me feel like part of their ohana.

From the bride:

'Our hearts were so full and happy and BLESSED this morning scrolling through them and reliving our day, and you made us look and feel like a superstar magazine couple! You are truly an ARTIST and oh-so-talented and inspiring, you super mom you! We would love to work with you again when the baby time comes! XD We will recommend you to anyone we hear that is needing wedding/engagement/lifestyle photos done, you do such amazing work. We are truly blown away. And so easy and FUN to work with! I actually got teary over a few this morning wink emoticon. Thank you for being such a huge part of our special day, it was so so nice to have you be a part of it'
