book your date
“We booked with her from out of town so I really had to put my faith in a complete stranger, but from the start she was completely welcoming and professional; her booking site, self guides she makes herself, tips and tricks before meeting and etc! We LOVED that about her. We booked her for a [sunset shoot] and she really outdid herself. I was worried how it would go, but she over exceeded our expectations! She picked a location that had multiple different ‘backgrounds’, so she maximized the time and made it look like we were in 3 different shooting locations. The edited pics came timely and turned out BEAUTIFUL. Trust her! We’d book her again if we ever decide to come back to the Big Island!” –Kimberly
Treasure your most meaningful connections
Absolutely! There is a way to balance an adventure elopement of your dreams while also celebrating with your family and friends. I am able to accommodate groups of 25 people or less. My client portal has recommendations for groups considering privacy, availability, and accessibility. You can also have the ceremony with your partner and celebrate with them at dinner or at another location or residence. There are so many ways to make it all work, especially for an all day or multi-day package. I've got you covered!
Can I bring my family and friends?
Great question! Every sunrise and sunset will be different depending on the year, side of the island, and weather. Generally, sunset is more golden with colorful skies, and sunrise on the west side of the Island will be a softer pastel light, slightly cooler temperature. Most travelers here are adjusted to an earlier time zone, so a sunrise adventure is very doable! Beaches tend to be very quiet at sunrise, while at sunset you will have more than a few beachgoers around. When it comes to sessions in other jungle or waterfall spots, the timing is more flexible.
How will I need to prepare for my Hawaii photo shoot?
Everything you need to prepare for your Hawaii photo shoot will be sent to you before the day. Guidance on location, travel, outfits, Hawaii florist vendors, and more are part of the Amandalani photography experience and ensure every part of your Hawaii photo shoot is easy and enjoyable for you and your loved ones.
