From Lanikai sunrises to Ko Olina sunsets, Oahu offers every kind of wedding light. We bring the camera and the calm presence to match.
Check Hawaii AvailabilityOahu is the most accessible of the Hawaiian Islands — the largest airport, the widest range of venues, the easiest logistics for guests flying in from the mainland. It’s also where you’ll find the most variety: white-sand crescents on the east side, dramatic west-side cliffs, lush valleys in the interior, and the iconic stretch of Waikiki. We shoot weddings and engagement sessions across all of it.
Whether you’re planning a beach elopement at Waimanalo, a resort wedding at Turtle Bay, a ranch ceremony at Kualoa, or a private estate celebration anywhere in between, this island has a frame for you. Below is our Oahu work plus everything we tell couples planning a wedding here.
East-side beaches (Lanikai, Waimanalo, Kailua) shine at sunrise. West-side beaches (Ko Olina, Maili) shine at sunset. Pick your side by the light you want.
Hawaii state requires a permit for any beach ceremony. Application takes 2–4 weeks, costs around $130. We’ll guide you through DLNR paperwork.
Resorts (Turtle Bay, Four Seasons Ko Olina) handle permits + setup. Public beaches are stunning but DIY. Each has its trade-offs.
Honolulu rush hour is real. We always build buffer for getting around the island, especially for weddings with split timing or location swaps.
No coordinating two vendors who’ve never worked together. Your photographer and filmmaker are on the same team and plan the day as one.
