I wouldn’t trade my job for anything. It’s a huge honor and privilege to photograph passionate celebrations between families and friends. My clients let me into their personal space and trust me to document with honesty and grace their deepest emotions: their love, their tears, their laughs, and their fears. For this I am grateful beyond words. While weddings are 90 percent of my work, they are not all of my work — and honestly, I think that’s a good thing. Shooting families & children keeps me inspired and allows me to see the world differently, which plays into how I document events

As a child, I fell in love with Hawaii. When the opportunity presented itself in 2015 for me to return to the state permanently, I jumped at the opportunity. I relocated myself and the business to the Big Island, and have been living on the Island of Hawai’i ever since. After serving our nation as an Officer in the Air Force, I went back to school for a Masters in Counseling Psychology and accidentally found a passion for photography. Realizing that I love hearing and seeing the stories that surround us, I graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in Professional Photography and founded Creation Swells Photography.

My husband is my second photographer, so we come as a photo team! Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I Got You!

Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

I’ve known Ali outside of her photography career and when I was starting to plan out things for my wedding I didn’t hesitate to reach to her for her to be my photographer/wedding helper. Her personality and work ethic spoke for themselves. I hadn’t seen her photography work before booking with her, and that’s how much trust I had in her and her expertise as a wedding photographer. Our engagement shoot with her was flawless and her patience was greatly appreciated. We had no idea what to expect but her many years of photography experience definitely helped our nervous jitters. She cued us on specific positions and things to talk about so that she could capture the perfect moments. Oh and she was great with the fur babies, they were doing their best but she helped us out with their quirks. 10/10 recommend Ali for your photography needs…I’m very excited for our wedding day!

We are incredibly grateful Xenia was our engagement/wedding photographer and couldn't be happier with the results! The photos will speak to her technical talent; her professionalism and dedication to her craft are evident in every shot. It was so hard for me to only select 6 photos. What the images don't explicitly show is that Xenia was an absolute joy to work with. She is clear, transparent, and helpful in her communication. Her straightforward and friendly communication ensured we were always on the same page and felt supported throughout the process. While shooting, she is organized and efficient. We got every shot we hoped for and then some. Her enthusiasm and joy were infectious. She made these two awkward nerds feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. We cannot recommend Xenia enough! We will cherish the photos you took forever!

So, so thankful we went with Calea as our wedding photographer. She was the first person we interviewed and the last. As soon as we spoke with her I knew it was going to be a perfect fit. She’s professional, she’s fun, she’s knowledgeable, she’s helpful, and absolutely amazing at what she does. I am incredibly happy with the way our photos turned out and how she captured our day. She showed up to our wedding a half hour earlier than her scheduled time to make sure she was all situated and familiar with the venue and made sure we stayed on track with all the photos we wanted to get throughout the night. She was such a positive part of our day and meshed perfectly with our families and friends. We had so many people at our wedding compliment the photographer and her presence at our wedding. She flew under the radar while capturing crucial moments and interacted with our guests and family when needed. She made it fun! She laughed, she cried, and she truly felt like family while she was there with us. Her passion for her work is clear and she truly gets to know the style and vibe of her clients! Thank you Calea, we will always look back on our photos with such love and joy in our hearts thanks to you!!!

We can’t say enough good things about them! From the start, they felt like part of the crew, super chill, easy to work with, and just fun to be around. On the big day, they somehow managed to be everywhere without ever feeling like they were in the way. They caught all the laughs, happy tears, and little moments we didn’t even realize were happening. And when we saw the photos/video? Absolutely blown away. It’s like they bottled up the whole feeling of the day, and now we get to relive it forever.

Meg was such a great photographer to work with during a winter wedding at our venue! She was creative with our space and was great at communicating with the bride and groom. She happily shared the photos with us after the wedding and they turned out so perfect! We hope she can shoot another wedding here again and highly recommend her services!
