Just Maui’d at beautiful Makena Cove on October 2nd, 2014. Right after they exchanged their vows, it started pouring down rain to bless their new journey together. Gordon suggested changing the location to Po’olenalena Beach which is about 5 minutes from the cove for their sunset shoot. When we arrived there it was dry as a bone with a glorious sunset starting to commence. They are ecstatic to have a great variety of shots taken on two amazing beaches for their precious wedding day.

Betty & Martin choose some unique locations for their memorable wedding photos. They had an intimate morning ceremony at pristine Makena Cove. Being from chilly Montréal Canada, Martin always had dreamt of getting bright tropical colors in his wedding photos. Jayanne, our coordinator found them a perfect place, Maui Tropical Plantation to make his dream come true! We went there after the ceremony at lunch time for some gorgeous tropical garden photos and then their photo shoot ended with a beautiful sunset at Po’olenalena beach to complete their big day!

Just finished editing Le Le and Yuan’s wedding photos yesterday. “Wow!” I do not know how many times I was amazed by the beauty of the photos that Gordon and Arien captured on this lovely couple's big day. The photo sessions started at Honolua Bay Forest which has a romantic fantasy feel which is almost fairytale like. Then they moved to the private estate in Laniupoko for their ceremony and reception. That evening, they had one of the most magnificent sunsets I’ve seen on Maui. Gordon and Arien captured their gorgeous silhouette with their reflection floating in the pool with the glorious orange and yellow clouds surrounding them. While I was editing these photos, the cropping and color enhancement created a somewhat mysterious new layer of beauty that started to appear on the surface on the photos. I really enjoyed being a part of the team to create these amazingly artistic photos with Gordon and Arien!

Just Maui’d on September 24th, 2014. They had a wonderful wedding and reception at famous Olowalu Plantation House. This private estate on the westside of Maui is one of the finest venues for weddings and this couple really did it up well with a gourmet caterer to wine and dine their large gathering of friends and family. We got some awesome dancing shots!
