Inspired by cinema & Grounded in connection
There are no poses or formulas—just direction that brings out who you already are.
Every session is customized: from wardrobe styling and location scouting to timing the perfect light. You’ll move, laugh, and explore, while I document the kind of moments that unfold naturally—the quiet glances, the spontaneous laughter, the way the ocean catches the light around you.
"Working with Masha was incredible and her style of letting you interact organically as opposed to too much posing was a great switch up from other photographers."

Hi, I'm Masha

As an Oahu couples photographer based in Honolulu, I know how to read the island’s light — when it filters softly through the palms at sunrise, when it glows golden against the cliffs at sunset, and when the wind becomes part of the story.
Every session is guided by that rhythm, crafted around how you naturally connect and move together. The result: images that feel cinematic, intimate, and completely you.
I’m selectively taking only a limited number of couples each year on Oahu, ensuring every story receives the time and intention it deserves.

Choosing an outfit or a location doesn't have to be overwhelming. I provide personalized styling tips and an exclusive guide to Oahu’s most iconic and hidden locations. Whether you’re envisioning a timeless look, something more chic or going for comfort, I ensure that both your style and the location perfectly complement.
