Love Stories

We had the pleasure of helping Jocelyn & Luke with their Kauai elopement. It was a perfect day in May for this intimate elopement! They had their ceremony at a private waterfall and afterwards they went to Puu Poa beach with Harneet for sunset photos.

Kristina & Evan met in Boston 7 years ago through an app named Hinge. Their first date at a restaurant was a comedy of errors with embarrassing moments, but they were destined to be together! After 3 .5 years in San Diego Evan proposed before their going away party. After the party they drove across the country, newly engaged to start their lives together in a new place. They decided to elope on Kauai, heir elopement on Kauai was truly beautiful! It was just the two of them, and so much love! The photos tell the story best..

It was a perfect day for this intimate family wedding! Biana & Jordan wanted just their closest family members and friends with them on their special day, and it was an absolutely gorgeous wedding. They had their ceremony and group photos at Princeville beach after which they went to Hanalei with Harneet for photos with just the two of them. They and their families were so happy with everything, it was such a special day we were honored to be a part of!

We had the pleasure of coordinating Surena & Joseph's Hanalei elopement on July 4, the same day as our anniversary! They were such a joy to work with and had so much fun with their photo shoot. The weather was extraordinary that day beginning with sunshine throughout the ceremony, then a rainbow, a light shower, then a gorgeous sunset. It was a wonderful evening, the photos tell the story best!

A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to shoot yet another amazing proposal out at Hanalei Bay. I was contracted by Veronika at Ali`i Kauai weddings to be the photographer. Veronika was hired by ‘Brian’ to bring his vision to reality. Brian had the brilliant plan to propose to his girlfriend, ‘Jennifer’, standing amidst flowers on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world as the setting sun lit the sky on fire. Add a Hawaiian musician playing his chosen song in the background, and it was sure to make her heart melt.

It was a brilliant plan on paper but a lot of things had to fall in place for it to work perfectly. It was supposed to happen yesterday but the bad weather made us cancel it. So here we were waiting to board the helicopter with a young beautiful couple. It was either happening today or we had to go back to the drawing board and come up with something entirely different. John(name changed) had planned this weeks in advance.

Back in February, Danny inquired if I was available to do a maternity photoshoot for his girlfriend. Pretty straight forward right? No.He then told me his secret plan to propose to her during the photoshoot.Two weeks later, I met Danny and his girlfriend Meg at Hanalei bay on a beautiful evening. Meg was all excited about the shoot and was wearing a beautiful teal dress that showed off her baby bump perfectly. The photoshoot turned out to be perfect excuse for Danny to suggest make up and flowers to the unsuspecting Meg. She even had a second dress for the shoot.

On a beautiful spring evening, Augustine took his girlfriend, Monserrat, for a walk on the pristine Ke’e beach. As they were enjoying their stroll, they stumbled upon a circle of flowers on the beach. Augustine took Monserrat’s hand and led her into the circle. Before she could realize what was happening, he looked deeply in her eyes and got down on his knees. The look on her face was priceless.

On a beautiful evening in Hanalei, I was hiding in the bushes ready to shoot at the right time. Crouching beside me was A.T. with his guitar, Joel with the video camera and Veronika, the co-ordinator of this surprise proposal.About twenty feet away from us was perfect circle of flowers on the beach. It attracted attention of the people passing by it. We just hoped that no one decided to camp in or around it.
