Jannae + Garrett {Chic Maui wedding at amazing Ironwoods beach Kapalua }

After getting to see their awesome everyday style during their engagement session (if you haven't already seen it, look here first!), I was so excited to find out what everyone was going to wear to Jannae and Garrett's wedding. I wasn't disappointed. Garrett was effortlessly cool in his suspenders and bow tie. The pattern of Jannae's dress reminded me of a mermaid and photographed so beautifully, especially in black and white. All the little simple details were the perfect match to perfection.

The day was lovely and the ocean had some huge waves the biggest I ever seen in Ironwoods it was just so breathtaking to watch them during ceremony with such spectacular backdrop .

Can I just say I have the best "office" in the world?! Some weddings are all about the details, but really when it comes down to it, I can be just as inspired by a couple in love and the stunning landscape of Hawaii. From the swaying palm trees to the ever flowing waves, and the dramatic lava rocks, I will never take this magnificent island for granted.

Chantele and Blake had a sweet intimate ceremony on the lawn at Merriman's, coordinated by Maui's Angels Destination Weddings & Events. After they became united as husband and wife, I whisked them away for some romantic alone time on the rocks and let their love speak for itself. They were delightful and infatuated, it's safe to say the beauty of their love rivaled the scenery.

Natalie + Levi {Epic Beautiful Maui Elopement}

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.
