"We had such a great experience the day of the wedding. Masha and her crew were so friendly and helpful that you don’t even feel uncomfortable in front of the camera. We have a big family and they were so patient with getting all the family portraits. She made me feel confident in posing and just having fun. When she sent our sneak peak pictures, I honestly screamed. I loved every single one! It was like a dream and I looked like a princess. She captured little moments that I am able to look back on and remember what I felt in that very moment. We were so blessed to have worked with her! She’s Awesome!"

Words truly cannot describe how incredibly talented, personable and genuine Masha is. She was not only our wedding photographer and planner, but had become an instant close friend. She was beyond accommodating since day 1 of meeting with her over Zoom and we felt an immediate connection with her. Masha was readily available throughout the months leading up to our wedding day, made the planning process & scheduling a breeze, gave us trustworthy vendor suggestions, and made us feel so comfortable behind the camera. We went from always feeling awkward posing for photos prior to our photoshoot with Masha to feeling like models on the cover of a magazine as soon as she arrived. She gave us amazing tips on how to pose and encouraged us to bring out our best selves. the photos truly blew us away. We had no idea we could look that good! We love you Masha!

"Masha is THE BEST. We loved working with her throughout the entire process and felt super taken care of. She went above and beyond the typical role of "wedding photographer", helping to plan our entire day. We wanted to do a super casual ceremony on the beach, and she was generous enough to scope out the planned locations a few days before and then let us know why they wouldn't work and offered some different solutions, and the result was even more perfect than we could imagine. We are OBSESSED with the sneak peak and can't wait for the full album. ALL of our friends and families also love the photos and say they look like a magazine spread. Beautiful, editorial, classy, romantic, timeless, sensual, they are everything. THANK YOU MASHA !"

why should you get married on oahu?
Personally, I love how so much is possible when you get married on Oahu, against the mountains or the island waters, it’s just an all-round incredible place.
Aside from that, Oahu has some incredible places to see such as the sweeping Ko'olau mountains, Kualoa Ranch (do a tour, you’ll thank me later!), vibrant Waikiki, iconic Oahu North Shore and Diamond Head – a national park that brims with overlooks Honolulu and incredible mountain landscapes. These are also stellar locations for Oahu wedding photography.
I also personally love the Chinatown and vintage Hawaii for it's unexpected charm, as well as the history behind it, and the Iolani Palace and King Kamehameha statue that might be a unique photography space away from the natural beauty of Oahu.
And an additional bonus of getting married on Oahu – the temperatures are mild and it's sunny and breezy almost all-year-round!
What’s also amazing about getting married in Oahu, is that it has such a rich and interesting history that only adds to its charm. Found in the Hawaiian-island chain, this island is home to Hawaii's capital and is embraced with various mountain ranges, volcanic craters, and inviting tropical waters.
The wedding scene in Oahu, Hawaii is absolutely thriving, and for good reason! Not only is Oahu gorgeous, but it has several luxurious wedding venues and unique spots for elopement, engagement, and wedding photography.
For those want a city by the sea feel, downtown Oahu offers some truly memorable spots. Here, you’ll find some quaint cafes, modern restaurants, high-end bars and architecturally distinctive buildings that have that offer an interesting contrast to the natural beauty of Oahu.
