Jess + Ben are scheduled to have their wedding in November so we are all hoping by then Covid-19 has settled down and weddings can get back to business.

They chose to have their engagement session at UQ in St. Lucia. I love the mix of greenery and sandstone buildings and that gorgeous light peeking through is just perfection.

A few weeks ago, we found ourselves on Keana Point (Oahu’s western most tip) to photograph Stephen and Amelia’s engagement.  The rugged, yet beautiful landscape of Keana Point is different than anywhere else on the island and this is the main reason we love it so much.  About as far from Waikiki as you can get, it was the perfect location for their stylish Hawaiian engagement session.   She wore Armani, he wore Calvin Klein. They love each other. Everything about this shoot was perfect.

The storm in the distance provides a beautiful contrast to the lovely couple.

It’s no secret that we love a great sunset silhouette photograph and Hawaii never disappoints. Everything in Hawaii, just seems to be more beautiful than anywhere else in the world.  It truly is the best location for a destination wedding or a stylish Hawaii engagement photography.

Chloe + Michael chose to have their engagement session in one of our favourite spots on the Gold Coast. Pizzey Park nearly always comes to the party when we shoot there. We can’t get enough of the sunshine streaming through the trees. Gold Coast summer at it’s finest.

Usually guys don’t like having their photo taken let alone a professional portrait session, which is why we recommend engagement session as great practise getting comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day.

Dale + Kayla were so comfortable and relaxed with each other which really shows in their photos. Dale is easy going and fun and Kayla is super sweet, they were always smiling and laughing which makes for a fun session.

First up from our Hawaii sessions is Aubry and Kapono. They decided that they wanted to shoot their engagement session on the legendary North Shore at one of my old surf spots V-LANDS. Aubry and Kapono both surf there regularly and felt that there would be no better place to showcase who they are than to have their engagement portraits shot there.

While we were last in Hawaii, we had the opportunity to photograph this super fun couple and they took us around to all of their favourite parts of the island.  We spend a long time talking about what kind of locations that they would like on their engagement photo shoot.  We finally decided that we didn’t want “typical Hawaii” with its palm trees and beautiful beaches.  We wanted something unique and special that showcased their love of all the parts of the island.

We hiked up Makawao and found ourselves amongst the fog and trees and the fog seemed to nearly engulf Alex and Misa.  There is something about fog that can turn an amazing photograph into a magical photograph!  As we walked the winding trails, we found an oasis of grass that looked like a luscious green carpet in amongst the tall pine trees.  It was an ideal location.

We then travelled down the middle of the island and found a sugar cane field and really took advantage of the sun and sun flare to capture the warmth of the island.  We had some fun dancing and playing in the canes.

Continuing on, we spotted this patch of dried grass that looked amazing in the setting sun light.  The photographs we captured here are fun, cute and full of personality.

If you’re ever on Maui, make sure you check out Da Kitchen for some amazing local food! We had the loco moco (a must have) and deep fried spam sushi.  Don’t let the spam fool you, it is YUMMY!

Thank you Alex and Misa for showing me your beautiful island for letting me be a part of your engagement.  I look forward to see you next year for your wedding!!!
