West Maui Photographer

Welcome to our portrait photography sessions in the Lahaina, Ka’anapali and Kapalua area of Maui

Professional Photographer on West Maui

We offer high-quality and professional photography services for families and couples looking to capture their special moments in beautiful Maui. We pride ourselves on our ability to capture the essence of our clients, bringing out their unique personalities and emotions in every photo. Our portrait photography sessions are designed to create lasting memories that you and your loved ones can cherish for years to come. 

Our Approach

We believe that the best portraits are those that are natural, candid, and spontaneous. That’s why we take a relaxed and friendly approach to our photography sessions, allowing you to be yourselves and enjoy the moment.

We will work with you to understand your vision and preferences to ensure that we capture the perfect shot. We like to combine both candid and guided images in our sessions to give you the best of both worlds- the guided/posed images are often the ones that you will want printed and framed on the wall but when you are looking back on your memories – it’s the candid moments that really stand out!

Our Services

We offer a range of portrait photography services to meet the unique needs of our clients.

Best Locations for Photo Sessions in West Maui

West Maui serves as an ideal canvas for photo sessions, renowned for its natural beauty and diverse landscapes. Each location brings its own unique charm and opportunities for unforgettable photos.

DT Flemmings Beach is perfect for all occasions and for those seeking a more secluded atmosphere. Easy access for all ages and mobility levels.

Honolua Bay is a majestic location with dreamy jungle vibes. A romantic setting to create memories for a lifetime.

Ironwoods/Oneloa Beach stands out with its magnificent rock formations and white sand beach.

Ka’anapali Beach is home to many of West Maui’s resorts. Whilst we highly recommend joining us at DT Flemmings or Ironwoods beaches to escape the crowds, if that’s not possible we can come to you and shoot you on your hotel property.

DT Flemmings Beach

DT Flemmings Beach is great for all occasions but especially for family portraits for families of all sizes. It offers a diverse array of backdrops including Tropical garden settings, Palm trees, Rocky cliffs, Cook pine trees, Ocean views and a large sandy beach.

DT Flemming’s consistently has beautiful sunsets with dreamy Hawaiian skies. This location is great for people of all ages and mobility levels.

Ka’anapali Beach

Ka’anapali beach may very well be near to where you are staying but is not available for commercial photography. If you are staying at a hotel in Kaanapali we can come to you and shoot on your hotel property however we always recommend shooting away from the hustle and bustle at one of the beaches listed above. This way we can escape the crowds and you can have your photos taken all the way down to the shoreline.

Our team of experienced photographers are passionate about delivering exceptional service and creating stunning portraits that you’ll cherish for a lifetime. We use state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to ensure that your photos are of the highest quality.

Ironwoods/Oneloa Beach

Ironwoods/Oneloa Beach is great for most occasions but is our favourite for elopements, intimate couples photography sessions and smaller family portrait shoots. It is a stunning and dramatic white sand beach with tall rocky cliffs towering above each end of the bay. The tall cliffs make for an incredible backdrop and offer dramatic views of distant islands and deep blue seas when you stand above them.

Other backdrops include tall sand dunes with wild tussock grasses, palm trees and a picturesque boardwalk . This location can be a little challenging(but certainly not impossible) if anyone in your party has mobility issues- if that is the case we would recommend either additional time or an alternative venue such as DT Flemmings beach.

Honolua Bay

Honolua Bay is a majestic location that is great for couples portrait sessions. It is a unique and magical rainforest that is truly dear to our hearts. Our photo sessions here compliment our beach photography sessions perfectly- combining the two captures the best of what Maui has to offer and gives you a diverse range of images- ocean blues, forest greens, sandy beaches and colourful sunset skies.
