Every couple has a unique love story, and your elopement should reflect that. Not sure how to make your day extra special? I’ll help you dream big and create moments you’ll treasure forever.

Here are some ideas to inspire your Hawaii elopement adventure:
  • Champagne and Cake at Sunset
  • Dramatic Stargazing and Twilight Photos
  • Splash in the Ocean at Sunset: End your day with dreamy, playful couples’ photos in the waves
  • Explore Volcanoes National Park: Explore lava caves and natural wonders of Volcano National Park 
  • Snorkel in Crystal Clear Waters: Take a break from tradition and dive into the beauty of Hawaii’s vibrant underwater world.
  • Rum Tasting or a Local Brewery Visit: Celebrate with tropical flavors at one of Hawaii’s local distilleries or breweries.
  • Swim in a Pristine Hawaiian Waterfall: Take your love story to magical heights with a romantic waterfall photoshoot.
  • Bring Your Favorite Small Group: Whether it’s just the two of you or a handful of your closest people, make your elopement intimate and meaningful.
  • Luxury Picnic or Paint-and-Sip
  • Multi-Day Adventure: Why limit the celebration to one day? Let’s capture a series of unforgettable moments across Hawaii over multiple days.

“We booked with her from out of town so I really had to put my faith in a complete stranger, but from the start she was completely welcoming and professional; her booking site, self guides she makes herself, tips and tricks before meeting and etc! We LOVED that about her. We booked her for a [sunset shoot] and she really outdid herself. I was worried how it would go, but she over exceeded our expectations! She picked a location that had multiple different ‘backgrounds’, so she maximized the time and made it look like we were in 3 different shooting locations. The edited pics came timely and turned out BEAUTIFUL. I was worried how it would go, but she over exceeded our expectations!

Frequently Asked

have more questions?

I’m new to the island, can you help me with locations?

I’d love to! Navigating new locations is equally exciting and daunting, especially when you have a stunning sunset photo shoot to attend! I provide every client with comprehensive island navigation guidelines and I’m on hand for any questions or queries you have regarding location, transportation, and making the most of your island experience.

Keep in mind that I am respectful to only shoot at beach locations where a commercial permit is obtainable. I wouldn't want to jeopardize your session experience and as guests of the Island, it's important to have a balance of tourism and respect for local/native beach activity.

Great question! Every sunrise and sunset will be different depending on the year, side of the island, and weather. Generally, sunset is more golden with colorful skies, and sunrise on the west side of the Island will be a softer pastel light, slightly cooler temperature. Most travelers here are adjusted to an earlier time zone, so sunrise is great for kids and early risers. Beaches tend to be very quiet at sunrise, while at sunset you will have more than a few beachgoers around.

How will I need to prepare for my Hawaii photo shoot?

Everything you need to prepare for your Hawaii photo shoot will be sent to you before the day. Guidance on location, travel, outfits, Hawaii florist vendors, and more are part of the Amandalani photography experience and ensure every part of your Hawaii photo shoot is easy and enjoyable for you and your loved ones.
