A wedding party standing outdoors in front of palm trees at a tropical location. The group includes men in beige suits and women in white dresses, with the bride in a white wedding gown holding a bouquet and the groom in a gray suit with a floral lei. The bridesmaids hold bouquets, and everyone is smiling.

Every love story is different—your photos should be, too.

Getting married in Hawaii? I’m in. Planning a celebration somewhere else? I’ll pack my bags.

I’m Kelly—a Hawaii-based wedding photographer capturing candid, joy-filled moments for couples who want their photos to feel like them (not like everyone else). Whether you’re saying “I do” barefoot on the beach or partying it up under string lights on a mountaintop, I’ll be there with camera in hand and sand probably in my shoes.

I specialize in:

Weddings + elopements
Candid, documentary-style photography
Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Big Island, and beyond
Open to international weddings!

Let’s create something that feels as real, fun, and unforgettable as your day. Ready to make some magic?
