Your Wedding Photographers in Maui present The Metzingers!

On October 8, 2012, Travis and Kelsey came from Alaska to be married on the beautiful Makena Resort Beach. As their wedding photographers in Maui, we were proud to be witnesses to such a lovely day for them. We met early and did a full shoot in the beautiful Makena Resort Arboretum before their ceremony. As we captured their “first look,” we could tell this was going to be one exciting wedding to shoot!

We had so much fun that we did another shoot that evening on […]

Aaron and Mimi

October 5, 2012

October brought about many blessings and one of which was the union of Aaron and Mimi. This beautiful couple left rainy Seattle for a beautiful sunset beach wedding here on Maui. They selected their own beach and had an EZ Weddings Ceremony. With more than 15 people flown to the island to witness their beautiful union, their ceremony went along with the only hiccup being the young ring bearer’s misfortune of playing too far into a wave and being soaking wet for the reception following the ceremony. In my book, […]

Where can you find sea turtles on Maui?

Leave your camera at home & let us do the work… Come with us and we’ll show you!

One of the popular things to do when visiting Maui is to watch the turtles. Since the turtles tend to come close to shore to eat the vegetation, it’s fairly common to find tourists standing along the shore pointing excitedly at these majestic creatures. A lot of times you’ll even see them grabbing their snorkel […]

A Simple Walk… Ramblings of an Island Girl

Last night I announced that before dinner we should go take a walk on the beach and appreciate what it is about Maui that brings us to live here.

To each of us that meant something different. Tay took off along the waves, jumping and splashing in the ocean’s foam. Our visiting friend tied her dress up high enough to allow her to enjoy the feel of the wet sand between her toes. Penny went directly to the tide pools to look for beautiful tiny creatures. I listened to all the earth’s sounds as I watched how my family’s happiness was exploding around […]

Best Beach in Maui for Lifeguards?

We have to admit that we love our lifeguards on the Kamaole Beaches in Maui’s South Side.They’re not only polite, but also responsive and in great physical condition.

Maui ensures that their lifeguards remain both physically and mentally in shape and as regular beach-goers, we are thankful for this!!

Just this morning a tourist called 9-1-1 to report a swimmer that was “drowning” on Kamaole Beach II.

Withing minutes the lifeguards were out in the water searching where they thought the swimmer went under.

Another few […]

The Miracles at Haku Baldwin Center

You’ve probably passed the ranch in Makawao a dozen times without realizing the magic nestled on the side of the road. Back behind unmarked fences lies a 33 acre ranch known as Haku Baldwin Center. They don’t advertise a lot and in fact, don’t even have a website yet – but you’ll be amazed at the lives they’re touching with their emotional support animals and the strives they’re making to bring free therapeutic horseback riding to as many families as possible.

“Where special people and animals come together.” Therapeutic Horseback Riding, Pet Therapy & Animal […]

If The Shoe Fits, Wailuku

The name, If The Shoe Fits, struck me as cute at first glance and within the first 5 minutes with shop owner, Teri Edmonds, the name became cleverly appropriate.

When asked how her dream came to be, she answers with a broad smile and a short tale. She began her designing career with the goal of providing stylish shoes […]
