Hawaii Photographer
Hi There!
I’m Michelle, a photographer who loves to showcase a bit of glamour in adventurous settings. Focusing on elopements, engagements, couple and family sessions, located in Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii.
My specialty: Adventure meets glamour - Featuring you surrounded by stunning landscape scenery in beautiful unique locations. I enjoy capturing emotions, smiles, ceremony tears and moments of surprise.
I’ve built my life around adventure: Prior to relocating to Hawaii, I traveled the world and documented cultures, cities and all that places had to offer. I have always enjoyed photography and the memories that it provides. From chic staircases and architecture to those charming European cobblestone streets and elegant Thai and Japanese temples. All of these moments were very special and the magic of photography has allowed me to savor each of them.
Combining my love for style, adventure and travel I continue to capture sweet moments for couples, families and individuals that wish to celebrate themselves and their closest friends here in Hawaii and around the world.
I look forward to being part of your unique day and to provide you with images that will always remind you of your magical moment in that time.

Wedding Anniversary Shoot on Oahu, Hawaii

Our photos came out spectacular!
We came to Hawaii to celebrate our 15th Wedding Anniversary and needed a photographer after our cell phone pics failed us. Upon looking at her work, we didn't think we would have an opportunity to get her at such short notice. Michelle replied to our inquiry and provided several quotes, to help accommodate and meet our needs. We met and she was professional, kind, but most importantly made us feel like we were her only session that day. She took her time to take the right shots and even asked us what we wanted. It was such a fun experience. If you happen to be in Hawaii, capture the moment and use Michelle. Our photos came out spectacular. We were thankful to share these memories with our friends and family. We recommend her to help you create lasting memories of your trip to Hawaii.

Amazing photographer!!
I hired Michelle to take some corporate headshots and professional photos for my business.. and I was blown away. I've never considered myself photogenic but her pictures were the best photos I've ever seen of myself. Communication was easy, I even rescheduled and it was no problem. Also I was rather particular about the locations and backgrounds I wanted and Michelle took the time to scope out different locations ahead of time and found the perfect spot. Michelle is kind, smart and easy n fun to work with. 10/10 recommend. I hope to be hiring her in the future and will def recommend her to anyone who needs professional amazing photographs!

The photographs ended up perfect!
Michelle was so wonderful to work with! My man was looking for us to update our professional photos as well as couple and family photos. He sent me a few photographers and it was easy for me to decide on Michelle; her art speaks for itself and her personal write up was just as personable as she was. The photographs ended up perfect and she was super patient during outfit changes. 10/10 - I would highly recommend!

The pictures turned out incredible!
My wife and I were looking to book a maternity photo session during our vacation to Hawaii. We found Michelle through Yelp and found working with her to be a wonderful experience. From start to finish, Michelle was especially responsive and helpful. Weather was pretty unpredictable with rain showers and strong winds during our trip, but Michelle kept us updated and was prepared for alternative locations to shoot at. Professionalism aside, what impressed us the most was Michelle's photographing skills and abilities. The pictures turned out incredible and definitely captured some memories we'll never forget. We would highly recommend working with Michelle and would definitely consider booking her for family photos if we return to the island in the future!
