HONEYMOON • ROMANTIC MAKENA COVE SUNRISE BEACH SESSION

Andie + Danny {Maui Beach Trash the Dress}

After Andie and Danny's super fun New Year's Day wedding on the north shore, we went to the south side to get wet. These two were already so laid back to begin with, now that the wedding was over, they were even more relaxed in total honeymoon bliss. We had such an amazing time cruising around in their Jeep, first going to Makena Cove and then over to Big Beach, where the water was absolutely crystal clear and perfect for jumping in.

Natalie and Levi had the best of both worlds - an elopement with just the two of them and then lots of pictures to make all their loved ones feel like they were there. They hired me for 5 hours because they wanted to make sure I captured each and every part of their amazing day. This extremely kind, humble Canadian couple also brought their own wedding planner from Canada, and it was a joint effort to make this the best day ever!

We did a first look at the Hotel Wailea where they got ready, then went over to Secret Beach for some lava rock and palm tropical scenery. Natalie was a fan of my faraway landscaping shots and wanted to showcase all the beautiful lushness of Maui.

The ceremony was at a bird sanctuary in Haiku set on a cliff with glorious ocean view landscape that was oh soooo stunning, the perfect place for them to say I Do's with birds flying all around them the entire ceremony while the sun was setting behind them. We ended the day with a romantic private dinner at Sugar Beach Events.

We met up the next day for a Day After session, where we played in the forest and Natalie got to show off another beautiful look.
