Matias + Sarah { Romantic Modern Bohemian Maui Wedding Inspiration }

The gorgeous of Maui hidden secret treasures are endless, what a better way to showcase a dose of inspiration for all those amazing couples looking to get lost in a tiny island in the middle of the ocean. Maui has so much to offer and even the most regular local roads are such an amazing backdrop for anything you can think of.  That's why I was thrilled when my beloved friend Vanessa from Delaluz Photos who was visiting us from Texas for the holidays, I met her in a photography Workshop in Joshua tree California last year. She asked me to create an spontaneous last minute epic editorial shoot to top off the last day of her trip with some colorful Hawaii bridal inspiration. What better models than Matias and Sarah from Nvmauimedia ,This stunning couple live in a constant honeymoon mode Its always a thrill to have them in front of a camera. I got to snap some shoots while accompanying my beloved friend. I am a firmly believer of comunity over competition and it's always so inspiring to see people who you admire work from behind. I am always beyond thrilled to play around with flowers also witch I crafted for this inspiration shoot just for fun 🥂👌🏽, I'm so in love with the elegant and romantic haku and floral bouquet , keep being inspired and do what you love.

Dana + Keith { Romantic classy Intimate Maui wedding at Ironwoods beach }

Ironwoods Beach is one of my favorite places to shoot. It’s a quarter mile long, covered in light colored sand, and usually uncrowded probably partly due to the fact that it doesn’t look like an obvious beach from the parking lot. A boardwalk surrounded by greenery runs above the beach as part of the Kapalua Coastal Trail. One of the best features is the lava rock cliffs overlooking the Pacific. With the wind creating movement and the waves providing contrast to the dark rocks, the cliffs become an awe-inspiring backdrop for those in love.

This next wedding was entirely planned around getting epic shots on the lava rock cliffs at Ironwoods Beach. Dana was looking for wedding inspiration on Pinterest and stumbled upon a picture of Ivana and Jan. She instantly fell in love with the place and decided she needed to have that picture for her own wedding! This set all the wheels in motion for a Maui wedding and led to them choosing me as the photographer to capture the magic. I worked closely with the bride to nail her style and the feeling of the day. We got the cliff shot that Dana fell in love with. We got in the car and drove down the road to finish the amazing day with beautiful sunset glare at Merriman's Kapalua where they were having dinner to celebrate their ever after!
