Emily

Owner, Coordinator + Photographer

Aloha, my name is Emily! Born on Maui, I grew up in San Clemente, CA, and have since returned to this beautiful island with my husband, Daniel. My passion for photography began at age 16, when I started taking senior portraits for classmates, capturing family moments, and even photographing friend's weddings. A few years later, I was hooked and decided to turn my passion into a career, launching my business in 2019! Since then, I’ve had the honor of capturing and coordinating countless weddings, intimate elopements, vow renewals, family portraits, senior sessions, and more. Alongside offering officiating services, photography, and full wedding coordination, we are dedicated to making every celebration a timeless experience, filled with authentic moments you'll cherish forever.

​​

In addition to photography, you'll find me surfing, traveling with my husband and son, and exploring this island we call home. Photography is one of my passions, but another huge passion of mine is being involved in ministry and outreach within surfing communities around the world. I also work as the Chief Communications Manager with Christian Surfers United States and use surfing to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ on Maui, in the US, and around the world!

Daniel

Planner & Coordinator

Aloha, I'm Daniel! Originally from Argentina. My journey in weddings and elopements began when I met my wife in 2019. I started by assisting my wife with photography, learning the craft through her expertise. Today, we work together, capturing unforgettable moments and creating heartfelt ceremonies. We work together to create beautifully organized weddings and elopements that feel effortless and personal.

 

I am the lead planner and coordinator, guiding couples through every step, from timelines and logistics to creating a smooth, stress-free experience on the day itself. Our collaboration allows us to combine creativity and organization, ensuring that every detail is thoughtfully executed and every moment flows naturally.
 

Whether it’s planning an intimate elopement, coordinating a wedding day, or helping design a celebration that reflects your unique story, I’m dedicated to creating an experience you can fully enjoy and remember for a lifetime.

I’m passionate about the ocean and feel incredibly fortunate to live in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Here in Maui, Hawaii, I enjoy kitesurfing and surfing as often as I can. The stunning beaches and ocean life are a constant source of inspiration for the work we do. My wife and I also love traveling with our son, exploring new destinations and immersing ourselves in different cultures. Each journey brings fresh perspective and creativity into how we plan and design meaningful experiences for our couples.
