Kelly & Thomas have a Great Story!
Check this out for a romantic story. They actually met in 1998 on New Years Eve & lost touch until years later. That quick meeting though had a lasting impresion though as years later, Thomas confessed his love for her. Exactly to the very day, ELEVEN YEARS later, Kelly & Thomas went out for their FIRST date on New Years EVE. Since then they have been inseparable. Their wedding was gorgeous, as they had rented this SUPER SWEET house on Maui’s west side with ALL of their really important people in attendance. As soon as the “I DO’s” were said the “PARTY WAS ON”! Look for the second rainbow picture. That is actually a “MOON BOW” as it was totally dark out. Congrats to Kelly & Thomas! Enjoy the Images!
Lucy & Sy’s Fantastic Maui Wedding!
Upon arrival at The Beautiful Hyatt Regency on Kaanapali Beach, I was greeted to a very radiant & excited bride.
The weather was perfect & her wedding venue covered in gorgeous purple flowers. Her fiance, Sy, was cool, quiet & relaxed as she finally walked up the isle. Their wedding was short, beautiful & very moving. They both had written their own vows & Sy’s were especially meaningful!
The backdrop of the Lanai & the pacific ocean was stunning! I wish Lucy & Sy the very best as they enjoy their new life together.
Enjoy the pics! Aloha

When its right, its RIGHT! Teresa & Alan marry on her DREAM BEACH!
Teresa & Alan’s story is awesome.
They actually haven’t dated each other for all that long, but there connection being SO TIGHT, they both knew they were perfect for each other!
When they first talked about marriage, she expressed her dream of getting married on her favorite Hawaiian beach. Alan of course agreed that they HAD to marry on Hulopoe Beach on Lanai.
In the early planning they were not going to even have a photographer. She happened to come across my work & then told her Maui friend, Andrea, about this photographer she had found. Her friend asked who it was & she laughed when she heard my name. Andrea is a friend of mine for some 25 years. It was meant to be!!!
Finally the day of wedding came & was it ever SPECTACULAR!
Upon ariving at The Beautiful Four Seasons Manele Bay in Lanai, I was treated to the joy of two madly in love people SO EXCITED to marry each other. With just 12 friends there (five of which were my friends) they said their “I Do’s” & jumped & laughed & cried & kissed!
The whole expereince was very moving & totally beautiful!
Enjoy the pics & congrats to Teresa & Alan!!

Andrea & Scott’s Hawaiian Wedding
Being from Calgary,Canada; Andrea & Scott wanted a beautiful tropical wedding. Merriman’s Restaurant, sitting on beautiful Kapalua Bay did not disappoint them!
With the sun shining brightly & the brillant colors sparkling, they said their “I Do’s” to each other & immediately started the celebrations. With all of their guests coming from Calgary as well the party was on!!! My very favorite shots are the last two posted to the blog.
I love the candidness of that moment as they walk towards me laughing with each other. Congratulations to the two of them.
I wish them the very best.
A Hui Ho. Tad
Grace & David’s Intimate Maui wedding
So I had met this couple just minutes before the ceremony, but have to say I immediately had connected with them.
A really sweet couple that had dated for a long time & finally were able to get it done. They had actually wanted to do the wedding the following evening which would be 09-10-11, but I was already booked on that date so they changed their wedding date just to hire me. (Mahalo)
We were blessed with gorgeous weather though on the 9th.The sunset was SUPER FABULOUS! Lori of Tropical Maui Weddings took care of all of the beautiful details. Enjoy the pictures and Congrats to Grace & David!!!
Rachel & Michael’s Sweet Maui Beach Wedding
This was a a great couple full of joy & laughter & SO EXCITED to finally get married. Altough the wind was blowing really hard at the begining, it eventually subsided.
They both laughed & enjoyed the moment.
Tori Rogers of Hawaiian Island Wedding Planners took care of all of the beautiful details.
Alalani of Kuhina Hawaiian Blessing’s made it official with a very special ceremony. Great Couple & I wish them the very best!
Aloha
September 20, 2011 - 7:38 PM - Tad, the photos came out awesome! They had so much fun with the photo session! Thanks for being your amazing, talented self!
~~Keely & Konrad, Steal away to Maui for their Nuptials~~~
Their choices were: either have a GIANT full blown wedding in California, OR steal away just the two of them & do it here in Maui! They chose the later not even inviting their five children. They wanted it Simple & Beautiful & Romantic & Amazing!
Maui did not disapoint them, as the evening was perfect!
With Vance doing the honnors, on a secluded hawaiian beach, they said their “I DO’s” to each other & laughed & enjoyed EVERY Single Moment! (Of course the bottle of Veuve Cliquot Ponsardin Champagne helped as well.) I loved that they were so playful with each other & 100% connected. My favorite pics are near the end with them sitting on the rocks. Gorgeous! After their departure from the south side, their limo wisked them off to Mama’s Fish House for their first dinner as Mr. & Mrs!
Congrats to Keely & Konrad!
Kristy & Hugo’s Beautiful Paradise Point Wedding
My first meeting with Kristy & Hugo was late last fall. They were both delighted in planning their life together and I knew their wedding was going to be fun to photograph.
Fast forward ten months & all that planning was finally coming to fruition! They are both HUGE Charger fans. Kristy not only had the Charger garter, but also a Charger Groom cake made for her husband. With incredibly excited friends & family by their sides, they married & then turned up the volume!
The location on Maui’s Westside was absolutely perfect, ending with a stunning sunset.
After some well said toasts, they danced & danced & danced. I mean even Hugo’s grandmother was “ripping up” the dance floor. Looking through the pictures you will see 2 “Planking” pictures. In all the years I had never taken one & suddedly its all the rage. Too fun!
Enjoy the pictures & a BIG congrats to Kristy & Hugo!
A Hui Ho!!!
TEN years in the making & Ileana and Dax finally Marry!
From earlier conversations with the coordinator I knew this wedding was going to be “Super Fabulous”! I just did not know HOW “Super Fabulous” it actually was going to be.
Ileana & Dax had been dating for ten years and have a three year old daughter. She had bought her AMAZING dress, three years earlier, and had kept it hidden from her husband for all that time.
Living in Las Vegas, their busy lifestyle had not permited them to get married sooner & finally the day came to say “I DO”!
With about 60 of their closest friends & family, they said their nuptials to each other. The evening was beautiful with soft clouds making the light easy to work with & comfortable as everyone enjoyed the evening. Their little girl was SO Cute. She constantly was doing little “cute” things which made for great photos.
Their sunset they scored was also amazing.
Leah Robb of Island Wedding Memories not only coordinated the evenings events, but also made all the incredible flowers that adorned the tables.
Enjoy the pictures & Congrats to Ileana & Dax!
