Samantha is such an incredible photographer!

I booked with Samantha for my engagement photos and elopement experience and both encounters were amazing. The photos that she takes are simply breath taking. She makes you feel very comfortable throughout the session and provides great guidance for the perfect shots. Aside from being an amazing photographer, Samantha is sweet, caring, accommodating, just overall a pleasure to work with. She is the best person to spend your special moments with and she will no doubt exceed your expectations!

Samantha exceeded my expectations as our wedding photographer!

Our elopement photos were absolutely beautiful, I am so obsessed. My husband and I aren't that great at taking pictures and we needed someone to take the lead and fix the small things, pose us and lead the way - that's exactly what Samantha did. She was so easy to work with, she made the entire day so fun, & she was so nice and caring when I wasn't feeling well for part of the day. I can't say enough amazing things about working with her. Thank you Samantha for making our wedding day so special. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANYONE WORKING WITH HER. SHE IS THE BEST! :)

Aside from the fact that Samantha takes the most lovely photos you can imagine she is warm, flexible, professional and just a joy to be around!

When our wedding was rained out at the last minute due to a tropical storm Samantha was the first person to respond to us and not only did she reschedule right away but she also helped us coordinate with our officiant and reassured and encouraged us all along the way! She is truly an amazing photographer/human and I could not imagine a better person to share our special day with!!

WE LOVE SAMANTHA! Our elopement photos turned out AMAZING!

As someone who tends to pose awkwardly, Sam was able to direct me with simple instructions for beautiful photos. She was super easy to work with and made us feel very comfortable throughout the session; her energy was just great to be around.

A Maui resident who understands the island, its places, and our distinct landscape. Experience photographing weddings in this unique environment. This is the kind of knowledge your wedding deserves. 

The Lay of the Land

I recognize that I live and work in an indigenous space and gratefully acknowledge the Kanaka Maoli who stewarded this land and its resources throughout history and continue to do so today while facing the enduring trials of colonialism. I aim to work and encourage my clients to vacation in a way that respects Hawaii’s land, people, and culture.
