FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing reflects not just time spent shooting, but also planning, editing, location scouting, and making sure you have the best experience possible! I offer a variety of packages for elopements, couples, and intimate weddings. Please feel free to message me so we can find the right pricing within your budget for you. Travel within the islands is usually included, and I’m always transparent—no hidden fees here. My goal is for you to leave Hawaii with affordable, quality photos that will last a lifetime.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First, we’ll hop on a discovery call or connect via messages to talk about your ideal session. Once you're ready to book, we will set a date and you'll receive a payment link to hold your spot. Payment is in full upon booking. Then we move into planning—think timeline help, location ideas (including hidden gems only locals know), outfit inspo, and more. On your special day, I’ll guide you through a relaxed, fun shoot while capturing the real, unfiltered magic between you. Afterward, you'll receive a beautiful online gallery with downloadable, high-resolution images to relive every moment. Roughly 50-100 photos is what you can expect, sometimes more!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’ve studied marketing and business management, which helps me bring a thoughtful and strategic approach to every shoot. I’ve also spent years behind the lens, refining my style, learning the latest editing techniques, and understanding how to create movement and emotion in every frame. Photography is my passion, and I’m always growing, learning, and staying inspired. In addition to years of hands-on experience photographing couples in Hawaii’s most breathtaking locations, I’ve been featured in Minted Weddings, USA Today’s 10 Best (for a dreamy sailboat session on the Vida Mia), and recognized as a Top Experience Host by Airbnb with the "Once in a Lifetime" award. I’m also a proud member of the Professional Photographers of America, which means I stay up to date with best practices and industry standards.
