Upon ariving @ The Gorgeous Four Season Resort & Spa, I was welcomed by an excited and a little nervous bride.
Coming from Canada, Krista & Dieter were enjoying every moment of their beaufitul wedding day with their families & some of their closest friends. Blue skies & light trade winds made for a perfect backdrop to say their vows to each other!
Tino Rosete performed a beautiful ceremony! Of course The Four Seasons Resort & Spa provided an exceptional location with gorgeous views. Later on, Dieter took his new wife hand & walked on Wailea Beach laughing & soaking in the beauty of the moment! They were treated to a wonderful Maui Sunset that evening.
Congratulations to them & their new life together.

Enjoy the Pictures!
Many Mahalos Tad

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

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!!

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

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!

OMG! Nancy & Keith have such an awesome story!
Having dated for a VERY long time, Keith has been deployed in Iraq for 4 tours & Afghanistan for 2 tours.
Keeping the faith that her fiance would remain safe after all that time in harms way, they retreated to Maui at The Westin Resort & Spa to finally say their “I Do’s” to one another.
Throughout the evening, passerby’s kept wishing them “Congratulations”.
When we walked through the pool bar area, everyone there started clapping! I got “chicken skin” from the reception they received. Very Cool!
Like all these people, I also want to say: “Congratulations & thank you so much for your service to this country!”
It was truly an honor being a part of it! Enjoy the pictures! Tad

Laura & Chris had been working with Vicky of Dolphin Dream Weddings for quite along time to put together a beautiful wedding for them. The day of their wedding was just that. BEAUTIFUL! With little clouds rolling through every few minutes, the light was constantly changing creating the perfect backdrop for Laura & Chris to say their nuptials.
Having connected with them right away, it was a day filled with candid moments with just about everyone there…either laughing or crying.
Especially Laura’s sister (in a green dress) who could not hold back the tears of joy that came over her throughout the evening. Their close friend became officially authorized by the State of Hawaii just to marry them. Truly an amazing wedding & amazing couple & I wish them the very, very best. Tad

When I arrived at Stephanie’s room to do pre-wedding pictures, I discovered how excited she was to tie the knot with her fiance.
She was absolutely glowing! The wedding location is quite incredible with terrific views of the Pacific Ocean. Of course all of the details were handled beautifully by The Four Seasons Maui. I love the photo of the two of them in their Disney hats. They had one of their first dates at Disneyland and of course when I saw the hats, I had to get a picture of them with it. Truly a fantastic evening.
Congrats to Stephanie & Robert!

Tiffany & Carlos had a great wedding in Florida & planned their honeymoon here in Maui. Staying at the Wailea Marriot, we met for a honeymoon photo session. So excited to be married, both were treated to a stunning sunset on Wailea Beach. Big Congratulations to the two of them!
