Imagine a wedding day that's actually about you & your partner.
No rules. No strict timelines.
Nowhere to be but by each other's side, enjoying a spectacular experience, exploring somewhere new or somewhere sentimental, with the love of your life.
It might sound like a dream & maybe you already started planning "the big wedding" already...
However, somewhere along the way, it started to feel like you were trying to please everyone but yourselves.
If you've made it this far, I think it's safe to assume you crave adventure and intimacy. If the thought of making new memories together and being completely yourselves gets you excited, then you're in the right place.
"Words truly cannot describe how incredibly talented, personable and genuine Masha is.
You'd be lucky to have her for your wedding."

Choose Your Location Wisely
Plan for the Best Lighting
Keep it Simple and Intimate
Planning your elopement photography in Honolulu can be an exciting experience, and with its stunning backdrops and warm ambiance, you’re sure to create unforgettable memories. Here are three essential tips to ensure your elopement photography in Honolulu, Hawaii is everything you dream it to be:
Lighting plays a crucial role in photography, especially for outdoor elopements. The golden hour—about an hour after sunrise or before sunset—provides the soft, warm light that enhances your photos. In Honolulu, this magical lighting creates stunning, romantic images against the backdrop of the ocean or mountains. Be sure to schedule your elopement ceremony during these times for the best possible results.
Honolulu offers a variety of breathtaking locations for your elopement. Whether you prefer the iconic views from Diamond Head, the serene beaches of Waikiki, or the lush landscapes of Hanauma Bay, choosing the right spot will greatly influence your photos. Consider what type of backdrop resonates with you and your partner. A scenic beach offers romantic ocean views, while a botanical garden provides lush greenery. Plan a location that reflects your unique love story.
One of the joys of eloping is the simplicity and intimacy it offers. When planning your elopement photography in Honolulu, focus on capturing the authentic moments between you and your partner. Limit the number of guests and consider incorporating personal touches, such as a handwritten vow exchange or meaningful decorations. These intimate details will shine through in your photos, making them even more special.
I would be honored to capture your wedding day on Honolulu or abroad. To inquire about booking or schedule a consultation, simply reach out for more information.
