True Light Photography was a wonderful experience for our family/maternity photos. Calea is timely, kind, and clear in her communication. She was enthusiastic about any idea for poses or backdrops we had, and kept us moving efficiently so we could capture great photos while our kids were in good moods. The final photos were absolutely stunning - the shots were so moving and incredibly flattering. We are thrilled with the quality of her work and the value she provided on such a special day for our family.

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.

Grace T Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. 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. Their team, including Hannah and Mike, were dedicated and fantastic. They captured our wedding in the most candid and romantic way. 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.

Every time I turned around Kristen was right there capturing every detail. She became more than our photographer but a dear friend through the process.

I am a local, born and raised kamaʻaina of the island of Oʻahu. As a teenager and into adulthood, I fantasized about being a wedding photographer. Today, I get to live and share my pipe dream with amazing people right here in my island home in Hawaii. Your Big Day is as special as you are, as individuals, as a couple, and as a growing family. I have come to find my purpose in helping people highlight what glows about them.

Kristie is such an amazing photographer. She is so professional, yet flexible and goes above and beyond to accommodate her clients to make their special day even more special. She is someone who really makes her clients feel comfortable in every aspect of the shoot. My husband, who isn't one for having his photo taken, was able to relax and (with the help of our incredible photographer) take the best photos that we've taken to date! 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. Thank you so much, Kristie! We will definitely be booking with you again for any future events and special occasions!

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.

Working with Mar was the absolute best! My husband and I are not the most affectionate, but when we received our pictures, we love them so much. She captured our love and our story perfectly. During my getting ready pictures, she made me comfortable and beautiful. I never felt any awkward times and she made every moment a good time. She caught the most fun pictures of my husband and I, along with our wedding party. When my Maid of Honors or coordinator were not around, she held on to my blotting sheets and lip gloss, made sure I was good, it was great! She was more than our photographer that day and we absolutely appreciated it, and loved it. It was a quick turnover and such quality work; we would recommend her to anyone!!

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!

Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.
