MEET
the ARTIST
Known for my signature modern-romantic style, relaxed approach, and artistic imagery, my award-winning, Oahu wedding photography is the perfect blend of candid, documentary narrative and the kind of creative portraits you'll pass down forever.
Believing great stories transcend mediums, classic style is eternal, and champagne is always a good idea.
“We are baseline awkward. Masha made us look like models.”

"I feel like the photos capture us perfectly while also looking almost too good to be us."

My Style:
An Ideal Balance of the Candid & Curated
I am seeking a true representation of our time together as it unfolds — from the grandest ceremonies to the subtle imperfections, from the dazzling first kiss to when you ditch the heels and dance barefoot, from the impeccable styling to when your makeup just can't take it anymore... that’s the real thing.
On your wedding day, I want you to be present; and know that my team and I have the photos covered.
MyWhy: I believe in creative AND thoughtful imagery, because you shouldn't have to choose.
My approach is about more than just taking pretty photos; it's about telling a story that feels true to who you are. I focus on quality, detail, and a relaxed experience that lets you enjoy your day while I capture it in a way that feels effortless and natural.
My Only Goal: to provide you with stunning images & exceptional service
Consider this: how a photographer treats you is arguably just as important, if not more important, than the photos they provide. Because if you don't enjoy the experience, you'll probably dislike the images too.
While the basics of our job are to artistically capture your day, we promise to never forget that this is a celebration of love, not a "photoshoot". I won't be bossing you around to "get the shot" or putting a camera in your face when you need a moment to yourselves.
Instead we'll provide an ideal balance of direction & downtime, prioritizing how you feel above all else.
BEHIND
the LENS
I'm masha — "like marsha without the r". i'm an enneagram 3 to my core, undiagnosed shopaholic, constant world-wanderer, and reluctant hiker.
With the keen vision of an art director, I work alongside you to craft images that are seamlessly editorial — brimming with genuine energy, breathtaking vistas, and effortless moments (with the subtle direction you need to achieve the photos you want) I am endlessly inspired by the interplay of light, and I view weddings as intricate, exuberant, and stylishly emotional festivities that continually captivate my heart.
When I found my artistic eye and unique perspective on a traditional concept, I was lucky enough to find countless couples who also valued this type of storytelling.
Truly, I believe I am doing exactly what I should be doing with my life right now and I would be honored if you chose my team and I for your celebration.

At this point in my business, I am unable to take on every wedding or couple that inquires, but I still have a desire to serve you. An associate booking means that I'll personally handle all pre-planning, communication, post-processing, editing, and gallery delivery, and you'll be paired with another wonderful photographer from my team on the day of your wedding or session.
