Tad Craig Photography bio picture

Greetings from Beautiful Maui Hawaii

Born in Aspen, and raised in Telluride, Colorado, Tad has 
always had a passion for the outdoors and a reverence for the 
beauty of his natural surroundings.

Tad received his first camera, a Nikon FE2, as a high school 
graduation gift. Since then, he has been obsessed with 
perfecting his craft, constantly pushing himself to create 
better, more beautiful images. He began his career as a sports 
photographer shooting extreme sports in Colorado, Oregon, and 
Hawaii.
                 

The transition from Sports to Wedding Photographer evolved  with the help of three things: A Public Relations degree from C.U. Boulder, years of experience working in Five Star Hotels 
and a solid photography background. Tad skillfully blends 
traditional techniques with spontaneous photojournalism. The 
striking quality of his photographs is rooted in the basics: 
clean, simple compositions, a candid eye toward his subjects, 
and the ability to step out of the way to allow the 
breathtaking beauty of the Pacific speak for itself.

Tad prides himself on treating clients like friends and takes an 
invitation to photograph every event to heart. His professional, 
easy going personality will help make your special day relaxed, 
hassle free, and fun. His creative eye, attention to detail, and 
friendly, approachable nature have made him one of the most sought 
after photographers on the Islands. His gift for connecting with 
people and consistently delivering beautiful images will help turn 
your wedding dreams into reality.
             

Ampy & Jahmal FINALLY get married!!!!

Sunday, August 8, 2010 Posted in Island Wedding Memories, Sugarman's Plantation House

Ampy & Jahmal did things in reverse. They settled down, had two kids & after 12 years decided it was time to have the wedding of their dreams! They planned a beautiful wedding at Sugarmans Plantation house in Makena Maui. With every detail in place, Ampy’s mom walked her down the isle & gave her away. While their two kids looked on, Ampy & Jahmal repeated their nuptuals & sealed the deal. The evening of their wedding was gorgeous with soft light (LOVE IT). After sunset they made an arousing entrance directly into their first dance. Soon after Jahmal danced with his mom. They both sang the song they danced to while mom tapped him on the chest in a since giving him away. It was very emotional watching it!!!
That night I shot about 1500 images so here is just a small sample of images.
Many, many Congratulations to Ampy & Jahmal on a fantastic wedding. It was truely a pleasure working with the two of you & your families!!!
Enjoy the pics!!!
