My wife, Meredith, and I had the immense pleasure of working with EJ & Sarah Stavick for our wedding this year, and we cannot recommend Stavick Studios enough! From the very first interaction, EJ & Sarah's communication was exceptional. They made us feel comfortable and confident every step of the way, ensuring that every detail was covered and that our vision was understood. Their organizational skills were impeccable, leaving us stress-free and able to enjoy our big day. On the wedding day, their team was phenomenal.

The candid moments especially, were some of our favorites. When we received the teaser film and the photos, Meredith and I were left speechless. The quality and artistry of their work are beyond words. Every shot, every frame was beautifully, bringing out the emotions and joy of the day in a way that we will cherish forever. Their passion and dedication were clear in every aspect, from the carefully planned photo setups to the spontaneous video moments they were able to capture.

Sarah Peterson Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,888
  • Serves Hawaii

I'm a Bay Area native with over 12 years in the commercial photography realm. I got my start on the beaches of Los Angeles back in 2012 shooting commercial swimwear campaigns for some of the best designers in swim and fashion. That opened the door to countless opportunities with modeling agencies, reality television, and fashion design. In 2018 I made the move back up north to San Francisco where I grew up. With a wide network of friends and family up here, I found myself catapulted into the Wedding and Elopement industry - and absolutely loved it! I'm honored when I get to be a part of one of the best days of a couple's life together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Sarah was absolutely fantastic. From the beginning, communication was smooth and effortless, with prompt responses to emails and even video conferences to discuss details. Our photography package included an engagement photoshoot in addition to wedding photography. The quality of the photos from both our engagement session and wedding day was outstanding. One of the highlights was receiving a few 'preview pictures' shortly after each shoot, allowing us to enjoy some beautiful moments right away. The pricing was transparent, and the payment portal was easy to use, making the financial aspects stress-free. Throughout the process, Sarah provided invaluable advice on shot lists and was incredibly easy to work with when it came to posing. If we had a specific idea or location in mind for a photo, she not only took the lead but also enhanced our vision beyond what we could have imagined. She also emailed us ideas and example photos for different locations for our engagement photoshoot, helping us make our vision a reality. On our wedding day, Sarah took many photos throughout our events, including getting ready in the bridal suite, first looks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, and reception. She was excellent at directing our family members to ensure we got all our posed family photos. Sarah also took some beautiful shots of just us post-ceremony. Throughout the dinner and reception, we felt at ease and relaxed knowing Sarah was there capturing every moment. Beyond the professional aspects, our interactions with our photographer made us feel like we were working with a close friend. She always helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera, despite us being introverted and inexperienced with being professionally photographed. Her support and encouragement throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding were truly appreciated and added to the overall wonderful experience. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a talented and personable photographer for their special day.

Got married in May of 2024 and Tara and her team were amazing. She touched bases with me the day before the wedding to go over all the details and was very knowledgeable and attentive to all of our wedding and family details. Fast forward to the wedding day and they were amazing in getting all of the photos we wanted and making sure everyone was where they needed to be. We just received our photos last week and they are absolutely beautiful. She got us the best sunset photos, even better than we could have asked for during our overcast wedding day.

Aloha! I love showing people how beautiful they are through capturing their precious moments. I love working with light and the amazing opportunities Hawaiian weddings allow; magical sunsets, splashing waves, magical wildlife, gorgeous lush foliage… I have been a photographer for 15+ years and have shot 100’s of weddings. I am passionate about love and photography, and I put everything into my work. I am married and have two beautiful little boys who are also my passions in life.

I absolutely loved having Terra shoot my maternity pictures. My husband and I are pretty awkward in front of the camera but she made us feel super comfortable and she gave us great direction. Also, I was glad to see that she came to the location early so that she can scope out the place. I was questioning some of the chosen spots in my head, but I trusted her and it all came out amazingly in the pictures. She has a great eye and her editing is just magical. I was surprised that she got us a sneak peek the day after! I hope to go back to the Big Island with my baby boy so that we can do another photoshoot with her!

Kristen was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. Even before the event, she was eager to get to know us on a personal level and we now call her a friend! Weeks before the event, she sent us a very detailed questionnaire to make sure she captured everything we wanted for our wedding. On the day of the event, she was professional, flexible with schedule changes, and went above & beyond our expectations. Our pictures were natural and authentic which is exactly how we wanted it! 100% recommend. I would choose Kristen over and over again!

I’m Grace Troutman. I’m a wedding & elopement photographer who loves to frequent the West Coast, Hawaii, and the Midwest (where I grew up.) I approach working with my couples on their weddings from a place of trust and compassion, so I can document the day how it is true to them. No forced moments, no stiff posing, only true to life candid imagery. I’ve shot all over the world from Iceland, Ireland, & France to all over the Midwest, all the way to California and Hawaii, and I believe that you should say “I do,” in a place that makes you feel like home.

From the moment we first reached out, they were incredibly responsive and provided us with so much inspiration and guidance to help us plan the perfect day.

They helped us plan the flow of the day by contributing feedback and building the schedule, and we even got special moments, like a pair of bunnies that photobombed our engagement shoot! We couldn't have asked for a better photography experience and would highly recommend Grace T Photography to any couple looking for a talented and personable team to capture their special day.

She made everyone feel comfortable and somehow managed to be everywhere at once without being intrusive. Looking through the photos feels like reliving the whole day, and we couldn’t ask for more.

She is someone who really makes her clients feel comfortable in every aspect of the shoot.

She not only meets the needs of her clients, but by far exceeds your expectations!! We eloped last minute and she was able to arrange a time with me to be able to capture our special day, which I will always be grateful for. The experience with which she directed not only us, but our family, made the shoot that much more amazing. She made us feel like family and ensured that we got the best of the best out of our day.

Harold with Alvea Studios is by far one of the kindest, most professional, and fast working photographers and videographers I've ever had the opportunity to work with! When I initially reached out to Harold for videography, he not only responded super quickly but was also able to listen and HEAR what my dreams and visions were of my big day. My wife and I eloped on Oahu and Harold not only delivered the most stunning images as a photographer, but went even further to deliver the most heartwarming elopement ever. Even when I show my friends, the always tear up. When I sit in the quiet moments of life and want to sit back and reminisce of Hawaii and the love that I share with my wife, I watch the video that Alvea Studios made for us. It's perfectly cinematic. It makes me feel like my love story is worth being seen and that it's perfect and beautiful. Not only that, but the cinematic and storytelling way that Harold captured both of us makes me feel like not only is our love story uniquely ours (which he captures perfectly) but also that it's something epic and truly a romance for the ages. Every time I know someone is going to Hawaii for a wedding, an elopement, or even a vow renewal, I ALWAYS refer Harold and Alvea Studios. His attention to detail is beyond measure and I cannot thank him enough for creating the perfect memories for my wife and I to share and cherish for the rest of our lives. And for those of you wondering if you should invest in a videographer, I can tell you that photos are great but video hits different. And if you want to look back in 1 year, 10 years, in 100 years and show your love story for how it actually is--which is a lifetime romance of the ages, videography with Alvea Studios is the way to go. Please, go and book him now. You won't regret a single moment. I'm eternally grateful to Harold and his team for creating this masterpiece of an intimate and perfect moment that stands still in time forever.

Photography is an artistic escape I love to have fun with! I enjoy meeting new people and stepping into their lives while capturing the love is something that sparked my joy. Photography has been a full time passion of mine since I picked up a camera in 2017. I love spending most of my time out doors in nature so I've kind of got the whole location scouting down to a 'T'. Let's go somewhere beautiful and make some memories.

Emily was incredible! I truly don’t have words for how amazing our experience was with her! Working with her was fun, easy and her photography skills are top tier! My wedding photos look out of a magazine! I cried when I saw them. They were more than I could have ever imagined! I’m so thankful I came across her work and had the pleasure of working with her on our special day. She managed our wedding party of 18 and our wedding of 60guests with no hiccups, no issues and ran the show perfectly. I hope our paths cross again in the future! Thank you Emily for everything!

these are the values that drive my biz: you are allowed to be YOU: this is a space that was created out of a ferocious desire to give the permission for you to be fully and fearlessly you. this is a space where you are wanted for being exactly YOU. embrace the ordinary: there is truly nothing better than right here, right now: the present moment is the sacred ground that holds all of who you may be, but more importantly, who you are right. now. be curious: the most beautiful things in life lay in the listening. we are surrounded by beauty, wisdom, groundedness, genius, love… if only we will listen.

We love ALL of our photos, which is so rare. I never heard of a bride who loved every single shot their photographer took. We should have hired her for our engagement photos, but oh well. We'll be sure to hire her for all our photos because we love her and her work so much.

We booked our June 2021 wedding with Simple Maui Wedding which connected us with Karma Hill. I really liked the aesthetic of the Karma Hill photos and how great all of them turned out so I felt really comfortable booking with a photographer even though I wouldn't meet them until the day of the wedding. The booking was all done through Simple Maui Weddings so I can't speak to that part of it but as for the day of and after the wedding, I have nothing but fantastic things to say. First, I was really excited when our wedding planner told us that Cheynice had been assigned as our photographer. I was drawn to her photo style on the blogs and was secretly hoping we'd get her. Cheynice was on-time and really easy to work with. She did a fantastic job of coaching and posing us and even got my introverted husband out of his shell a little. She also did wonderful with including our daughters in some of the photos. I am absolutely blown away with the pictures Cheynice took. I couldn't possibly love them any more. Last, but not least, both our sneak peek and our edited photos arrived really quickly. I am glad we added on the extra photography time as we were lucky enough to get a great sunset and a full moon in some of our photos.

Hi! I’m Lexi. I photograph couples, weddings & elopements on Maui & the surrounding Hawaiian islands, as well as everywhere else in the world. I am devoted to story telling, to avoid the “posey” and focus on the real. I am passionate about imagery that makes you feel something. More than a cute kiss on the forehead. I want to capture the smirk, the look, the snuggle, most importantly the moment. Being a photographer is more than mastering your camera, it’s about showing up vulnerable to capture human connection. Love. Because that’s what life is all about.

We loved working with Lexi. We were booked with her via our elopement package and she was so awesome! She really knew the area and the perfect places for photos. Our photos turned out absolutely stunning and I could not be happier with how they turned out. 10/10 recommend

Meet Sheyanne, a globally recognized wedding and elopement photographer based in Hawai'i, USA. With a portfolio gracing the pages and sites of prestigious publications worldwide, Sheyanne is celebrated for her ability to capture the intersection of effortless elegance and luxury in every frame. Her distinctive style seamlessly weaves together digital and film photography, offering couples a meticulously curated visual narrative that encapsulates the timeless essence of their love stories, whether they unfold in the heart of Hawai'i or at destinations across the globe.

This review is LOOONG overdue, but I always kept it on my eventual to-do list because Sheyanne is INCREDIBLE. She is extremely kind-hearted, welcoming, and (obviously) TALENTED!!! I was a bit nervous because we were planning a wedding in Hawaii from California, but from the first initial phone call with Sheyanne I knew she was the one. Her art speaks for itself, but her mix of professionalism and warmth sparked the connection for my now husband and I. She is truly a wonderful human being. Her pre-wedding checklist helped to bring our wedding vision to life due to Sheyanne's remarkable eye for photography. I told her to experiment and to feel free to try out new unique shots with us and gooooodness, did she deliver. I was blown away at the moments she was able to capture - your wedding day goes by so quickly, it's important to work with a photographer who will capture every precious shot. I look back at our photos with a huge smile as every memory rushes back to me, thanks to Sheyanne. Like all photographers, you will get what you pay for. Please don't see wedding photos as an "expense," but rather as an investment. Sheyanne was worth every penny in our budget, not just because of the art she produces, but her sunny demeanor and the ability to make you feel comfortable, like you've known her for years. Thank you Sheyanne for giving us such a wonderful experience! To anyone still reading this long-winded review – BOOK HER! You will not regret it!

***Please be sure to contact directly through my website listed below, Zola messages are not checked regularly*** Located in Northern Kauai, the Garden Island of Hawaii. Documenting love stories with soft lit narratives and playful interactions.

We did a couple’s wedding/honeymoon photoshoot with Julia in June (sunrise at Waikoko). We found her on the Knot and from the beginning she was quick to reply and easy to communicate with, which was great for us. We took the majority of the pictures in our wedding attires - and those are some of our favorite photos of us ever - and some in bathing suits. Julia was very flexible when it came to the timing of the shoot as the weather was constantly changing. We could not avoid the rain completely, but Julia had a see through umbrella we used and those photos are so precious! She gave us enough time to finish all the poses we wanted, and delivered the photos in a timely manner! She made edits on request as well. We really love the way she captured the beauty of Kauai and also our love in our pictures. We recommend Julia Streich Photography!

I found my way behind the camera after years of art directing in the fashion industry in NYC. I always loved photography as it captures a moment in time, frozen forever. Taking my knowledge & experience from my fashion days, mixing it with my love for romance, love & art I made the leap to weddings. I photograph film in which I believe that is has a romantic dreamy elegance that only film can capture. I’m based in Honolulu,Hawaii, and I love to travel. Exploring the world to learn about new cultures, meet new people, get lost in a museum and drive the countrysides taking in the sublime sceneries around brings me joy.

The photos we have previewed so far, have turned out perfect. For our wedding day, it was stress free and flowed seamlessly, which if you have a big family (or party) is significant especially since you need to corral them for photos. She met with us beforehand to make sure we were able to get everything we wanted from our special day. The day of, she helped us move our pictures along (while still taking breathtaking photos by the way, one of them is going to be life sized on our wall) so that we could really enjoy our wedding. We still cannot believe how perfect our wedding was and cannot thank her enough for capturing it. Mahalo nui loa!! (Thank you very much)

Reese's lover with huge ambitions and a fire under my feet. Quite literally! I have a Bachelor's degree in business, and I'm not just some girl with a camera: I'm an auntie to three amazing boys, a club volleyball coach (after playing college Volleyball!), a follower of Christ, and a world-class adventurer. That's right, I love traveling and the only thing that would make traveling more fun is having YOU in front of my camera. I'm seriously down to adventure anywhere! ​

Kaitlyn was great! We had some funky family dynamics and she knew exactly how to deal with them. She was great at helping facilitate at the venue and worked well with the coordinator so the day was smooth. I only have some of my photos back since the event was two weeks ago but what I got back looks amazing! 100% satisfied!
