Calea was amazing from start to finish! I live in GA and got married in OR. All I saw was her IG and a brief conversation to book. I could not be more impressed with her and her work. I put all my faith into her from across the country and she did not let me down. Calea is so easy to work with and she is up for anything! Calea had sneak peaks to us immediately and a full gallery delivered in less than 2 weeks! My husband was skeptical at first but when he saw her work, he was absolutely blown away and how phenomenal she is! Calea also isn't afraid to be the voice if you are uneasy with telling others what they need to do. We had her at our Venue the day of the wedding. The next day we took a trip to Crater Lake and she captured my vision perfectly!! I have recommended Calea and True Light Photography to all of my friends and family!

From the moment we first spoke with Ari from Theel Productions, we knew we had found the perfect photographer for our wedding. Ari has a warm, friendly, and cheerful communication style that instantly put us at ease. She is an expert at what she does, and her talent was evident in the way she authentically captured every special moment during our engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day.

Aloha all! I am Kristen Iwalani and I am extraordinarily ordinary. What I mean is, I am just an everyday girl from Hawaii who loves to talk story and make connections with those I am lucky to meet and photograph. My hope is that our time together feels like a date with me third-wheeling... camera in hand. I love making this process easy and will show up for all your questions and preparations.

Once we found Kristen and her work we knew we could't trust anyone else with capturing our day! Kristen was incredible with communication from start to finish and extremely transparent. We are so grateful that we trusted her with our engagement photos and our special day. She captured every moment of our event in the exact way we wanted. 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. We hope to come back to Hawaii and continue to shoot our growing family photos with her. She truly made our day magical and now we have priceless photos to look back on for a lifetime.

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.

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!

Our clients are individuals who are fascinating in many ways. Their love stories bring us laughter and move us to tears. They are living proof that love is still a thing in these crazy times.

We will make sure that you are happy with the results not only after the shoot, but for many years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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!!

We love Sheyanne!!! She was and will always be the best choice for your wedding photographer! She somehow kept us calm yet hyped throughout our day and made us feel camera ready. We wanted someone that would capture the emotions of the day as well as shoot more candid photos versus posed. Her style of shooting is exactly what we wanted. We also had our wedding at a venue that Sheyanne had not photographed at before which made me initially nervous, but Sheyanne was very open about it and talked me through her process. She really took the time to get to know the venue and found beautiful and unique spots that really elevated our photos. She even took some complementary film shots! We love you Sheyanne! Thank you for our memories of our big day that we will cherish forever.

Our experience with Xenia and Mark (videographer) was truly amazing. Xenia is truly a dedicated professional and her camera work is truly phenomenal. We booked Xenia for both our engagement and wedding photos and she completely exceeded my expectations! We originally booked Xenia and Mark for our wedding in May but unfortunately our wedding venue closed last minute and we were left to scramble in finding a new venue and once we did Xenia was so accommodating and made the new wedding date work. Xenia and Mark are super easy to work with; truly genuine individuals!

Where do I even start? Jessica is probably hands down the easiest person we worked with on our wedding. We unintentionally scheduled our wedding on Mother's day and this was obviously an important day for her, but she worked with us anyway. She worked through our foolishness (my husband and I are incapable of being serious in most situations), and often would join in on the fun. She also provided a schedule of events which was incredibly helpful for me as I had no idea what I was doing. Jessica is an amazing photographer, but that is not really the best quality here. She is an amazing person all around and I highly recommend her!

Not only is she incredibly talented, but her sense of humor and personality made the entire experience so much fun. She knew exactly how to direct us, telling us how to position ourselves to get the best shots, which made everything feel effortless. She was also so flexible—she even stepped in last minute to photograph our reception dinner. We are beyond grateful for her professionalism and how she went above and beyond. I highly recommend her!

Hi, I’m Heather! (that's me on the left) I'm a wedding photographer with a deep passion for capturing the genuine moments and raw emotions that make each wedding day so special. I’ve always been drawn to storytelling through photography, and over the years, I’ve developed a style that combines artistry with authenticity. My goal is to not just take pictures, but to tell the unique love story of each couple I work with, from the grand moments to the quiet, intimate details. My husband is a wedding videographer. So, if you are also looking for video, look no further!

I was born and raised in the smallest little state, Rhode Island! With that comes a huge appreciation for the coast and a realization that magic can be found in even the smallest of details. Growing up in a small town where time seems to go by slower helped me learn the value of genuine connections which have now become apart of who I am.

We are SO glad we worked with Bri! From start to finish she was supportive, communicative, and onboard with our elopement. My husband and I are not comfortable in front of the camera and she made it so easy to get beautiful photos! I let Bri use her artistic vision to get a lot of our photos, and I am so happy I did. Her and Lucas were fabulous - and essential to keeping our elopement as quiet as possible. I will definitely be reaching out to Bri if we ever need any other photos done! Thank you so so much for capturing our day!!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

From the moment we reached out to Birchfields, their communication was quick, thorough, and sincere. Their attention to detail and ability to make us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera resulted in exceptional photographs that captured every special moment of our wedding day. Birchfields truly went above and beyond, taking unique angles and perspectives that allowed us to relive the entire day through their stunning imagery. When it’s hard to figure out which photo you want to print out and hang on the wall, you know you picked the right photographer! We could not be happier with the final product and would highly recommend Steve to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable wedding photographer.

I am so glad you're here! I LOVE my family and I am OBSESSED with anything Kate Spade and if I could live in yoga pants, I would. My favorite thing to do other than photography is cook. I am lucky my husband and kiddos love eating as much as they do! We love the beach and anything Disney! I fully believe in having ice cream for breakfast and I cannot pass by a good Italian restaurant without going in. My heart melts when my boy says I love you or kisses my cheek. Being a photographer has allowed me to freeze some of our sweetest moments and I hope to be able to do that for you. xoxo

I don’t have enough words to describe how much we love Lauren! We were recommended by a friend to Lauren for our wedding in 2017. We had met with 8 (yes eight!!) photographers before Lauren and from the minute we sat down with her, we knew she was special. Her attention to detail and care about us and our family was exceptional. I don’t even really remember seeing my own wedding planner more than twice on my wedding day but Lauren was there every second keeping me calm and making sure I was ready for every moment of the day and night. A few weeks after our wedding, we received our photos and my husband and i cried tears of joy looking through the best day of our lives. Your wedding is the fastest day of your life and to be able to relive it from the outside through these amazing photos was the best gift we could receive. Since 2017, we have used Lauren for ALL of our family shoots for holidays and special occasions. We will never look elsewhere. Do yourself a favor and contact Lauren! It will be the best decision you will ever make for your wedding!!

**We are only accepting elopements currently, but can’t figure out how to change our listing!** Whether you are professionals passionate about your careers, are #vanlife, found love later in life, or can’t be defined by traditional labels, it’s YOU that makes “Kate & Keith Photography.” From our first meeting, we’ll be establishing a vibe. If we can’t conceive of future inside jokes, then we’re happy to make recommendations to some friends who may align. But if we get carried away by conversations of favorite hikes, or where you grew up, then you can bet we’ll be showing up on wedding day with all the excitement shared by your inner circle.

We worked along side Kate & Keith Photography while we were setting up the flowers for a wedding. Their team was very professional and kind to all of the vendors working at the wedding and all of the wedding guests. We can't wait to see how they captured the rest of the day!
