Katie + John {Maui Honeymoon Session at Makena Cove Beach}

If you're not having your wedding in Hawaii, the next best thing is to honeymoon here... and then have your photos taken, of course! Katie and John came from the concrete jungle of New York to soak up the sun on their Maui honeymoon. A wonderful friend of theirs actually gifted them with this honeymoon session - such a thoughtful idea that will always bring back memories of their special time here. (Everyone should be so lucky to have a friend like that, don't you think?)

Maui Honeymooners Hawaiian Wedding Celebration at Ironwoods Beach

in , ,

Ahhh sweet young love! There truly is nothing like it in the world. Rachel and Scott were actually on their Maui honeymoon when they decided to celebrate their union Hawaiian style with Reverend Pia Aluli at Ironwoods Beach. No big dress or fancy decorations were needed… with the sun reflecting on the bright blue ocean and two leis that symbolized their commitment, these sweethearts radiated giddiness and affection. After the beach, we ventured to the nearby Honolua Bay Forest (West Maui Forest Reserve) for dreamy forest scenery. Their happiness was infectious and gave me the warm fuzzies.

Crisna + Brandon {Wedding at Olowalu Plantation}

in , ,

I was thrilled to see Crisna and Brandon's tropical wedding at Olowalu Plantation featured in Pacific Weddings because I know what a labor of love this day was. Crisna was an organized bride who was excited to plan their special day, an intimate celebration inspired by the natural beauty of Hawaii and her favorite flower, the protea. She contacted me early in the planning process, so we became close as she would bounce ideas off of me.

I was honored to witness the beginning of a lifelong marriage and even got to spend extra time with these newlyweds for a jungle trash the dress session at Twin Falls, which you can see here.
