popular add-ons

Where do sessions take place?

Our team is based in Wailea, Maui and is available for travel to West Maui for a $75 fee. Most of the sessions you see on our website were photographed in South Maui (Kihei, Wailea) and West Maui. Inter-island sessions may have varying fees which will be outlined on your booking proposal for inter-island shoots.

Who will our photographer be?

Adam shoots most of our sessions and is one of three photographers who comprise our team of associates on Maui. You will be paired with a photographer who specializes in the subject of your shoot. Most of our team has been with us for several years - their images are intertwined in our portfolio and you can expect the same experience!

What is the image turnaround time?

You will receive a social-media ready web preview from your session within 48 hours of your shoot! Standard portrait turnaround is 2-4 weeks (good things take time!) Because good things can also deliver quickly, we offer expedited editing of 3 business days for $250. We fulfill a limited number of expedited shoots per month.

Should we choose sunrise or sunset?

The main thing to consider when wondering about choosing sunrise or sunset is your family or group's needs. Keep in mind with the time difference, sunrise will likely be easier during the first days of your stay. Both times of day have distinct differences, however, and we recommend you check out our blog for more in depth information.

Will you help me with posing?

YES! Posing and direction are our strong points and trust us - if you've never been in front of a camera, you'll find the constant guidance very helpful. The more comfortable you feel, the more you'll loosen up, and the candid moments will unfold naturally. We've never heard we pose too much, only that it helps tons!

Can we get in the water or do underwater portraits?

If your photographer decides that conditions are safe the day of your session we can have a splash! The clarity near shore, however, isn't optimal for underwater imagery, and posing underwater requires a great deal of posing skill and breathwork so we reserve full undewater portraits for personal projects. 

What if we need to cancel our trip?

If you need to cancel your trip the $250 retainer paid to secure your session is non-refundable. We are human, however, so please let us know your circumstances and we'll see what we can do!

how many images are included? who chooses them?

Once your Maui portait session is complete we will upload a selection of edited images to your gallery for you to choose from. The number you can choose depends on your selected package. You can also upgrade to all images shown in your gallery for $150. We do not release unedited/RAW files and will show 2-3x the number of images included in your package from which to choose.

Will you retouch or "photoshop" my images?

Every image from your gallery will be cropped and straightened with our preset applied. Background distractions/people will be removed. Some sand may be smoothed on select images where deemed visually appopriate. Advanced edits such as extreme sunburn removal, liquifying and Invisalign removal will incur an additioanl $50 fee per edit, per image when possible.

Beach Elopements

When we photographed our first sunrise session 10 years ago, the one you see here, we were hooked. The stillness of the water, emptiness of the beach, tranquility of the morning before everyone goes about their day in the sun. 

Then there’s sunset, with its vibrant tones, warm golden sand and calling of the ocean as soon as your kid’s feet hit the sand. It has a separate and beautiful energy, which is why sunset goes hand-in-hand with sunrise as our favorite time of day to shoot.

From shoot to delivery, we give your gallery the royal treatment, applying our preset and removing background distractions with finer edits on select portraits. Going above and beyond in our editing is what keep us confident that we are delivering the best. When you invest in our photography services, you'll treasure your photos for life.
