Maui & Hawaii Elopement Photographer Extraordinaire

YES, you should ELOPE to Maui for your wedding!

So, you are on the fence over having the big grandiose wedding your family is TELLING you to have, or running off to Hawaii, just the two of you, to run and frolic on the beach the way you have in your dreams!

Over the years, I literately have heard this SO MANY TIMES! It is just too common that the family is calling the shots and making the decisions on what your most important day should look like. Really you should listen to what your heart is telling you to do, but there are certainly some really attractive perks that come with eloping.

With cost of weddings running anywhere from $10,000 to more than a $100,000, it is easy to understand why so many couples decide that the BEST course of action for them is to elope! Starting a new marriage with lots of debt, is never a good thing. Another important factor to consider is the stress of doing a big wedding. Just deciding on the guest list can be a deal breaker with todays complicated family dynamics. The stress felt by many couples to have the perfect wedding, inviting everyone are all reasons to forgo the big expensive wedding & elope just the two of you to a little island in the Pacific Ocean!

Being a professional photographer, I LOVE shooting weddings! I Love all aspects of it, but I also really love elopement’s, the simplicity of it & the freedom it allows the couple. The benefits of going this route are numerous and make it a much more attractive way to go.

Here are some tips to make your Elopement easy and stress free.

The very first thing to know is the sky is the limit. Literally! You can keep it super simple w a beach ceremony just before sunset, a helicopter wedding landing in a remote locations with just a pilot, a minister and a photographer. You could marry on the summit of a 10,000-foot volcano at sunrise or sunset, or perhaps a jungle wedding in Hana with waterfalls and an adventure photography session before/after the wedding giving you a complete feel for true Hawaii!

Let your imagination run wild as there are no limits.

Personally, I LOVE IT when the couple chooses to do an ELOPEMENT THEIR WAY. It shows not only their style, but also the unique ways they choose to celebrate and express their love for each other. Of course, doing a more adventurous elopement makes incredible photo opportunities and will make especially profound memories. Planning a three-to-five-hour photo session is reasonable in price and will guarantee that you get all of the great moments that tell the story of your day. Adventure Elopements go from location, to location to location: sometimes 5-10 different spots which can include getting ready at your hotel, exploring wild wind blown cliffs, gorgeous white sandy beches, rain forests and amazing sunsets all documented for you to cherish for a lifetime.
