It’s not about perfect hair or packed timelines. It’s about what feels right for you. Whether that’s just the two of you getting married on the beach or celebrating alongside your closest friends and family, I’m here to help you figure it all out as your Oahu Wedding and Elopement Photographer.

Maybe it’s an intimate wedding with a reception that feels more like an after party. Either way, it’s about creating space for moments that feel honest and fully lived in. Elopements allow you to be true to yourself and your story—rather than pouring all your energy into a long wedding day where you’re already emotionally exhausted by the time you say your vows, then trying to make your way through conversations with 150 guests.

Instead, imagine this—we move at your pace. We build in breathing room and protect the quiet. Because elopements are slower. More intentional. There’s room to explore and wander, to laugh during your ceremony when you accidentally kiss before it’s official.

Because the most powerful moments don’t happen when you’re rushing. They happen when you feel grounded, present, and completely yourselves… in a place like Hawaii that already feels like magic.

connection first— even in the chaos
Let's rewrite the script.

Because let’s face it. You’ve never fit inside of a box.

Erin is the absolute sweetest! My fiancé and I loved working with her for our engagement shoot. She makes you feel very comfortable, even when you're not used to being in front of the camera. Most of the time I'm camera shy but damn I never knew I could look so good! Mahalo, Erin for shooting us and I'm so excited to have you as our wedding photographer!

All kinds of love,
body types & personalities welcome

Aloha,

I'm a mom and former teacher who picked up a camera three years ago and haven't looked back since. Now, as an elopement photographer, I help couples create and plan elopement adventures in Hawaii where the ocean sets the rhythm. Born-and-raised on Oahu, I'm here to bring you along to you to some of my favorite hidden gems on the island. Let's ditch the crowds in Waikiki and go somewhere where the mountains meet the sea.


Aloha,

Let's dream up your one-of-a-kind Hawaii elopement

I’ll help you build a day that fits you instead of asking you to fit it. Fewer expectations. More sandy feet. More quiet moments that belong only to you. A wedding day that unfolds naturally, at your pace, without an audience to perform for.

How I show up as your Hawaii elopement  photographer

What truly sets her apart is her ability to see people — to really capture emotion, connection, and love in every single frame. She didn’t just take beautiful photos of us; she somehow managed to capture the essence of our relationship. Every glance, every smile, every laugh — it all felt so natural and real, and that’s entirely because of the calm, confident, and intuitive way she guided us through the session. Thank you, Erin, for capturing our love so beautifully. We’ll cherish these photos forever.

Don’t know what to do with your hands in photos?!

You don't have to worry about posing or what to do next. I won’t tell you to “just act natural”. As an intuitive person, I can easily tell if you’re feeling uncomfortable and want more direction. Or if you need a little space to have a quiet moment together. I'll gently guide you while giving you space to be present. So you can fully live in the moment and walk away with epic, heartfelt photos.

No modeling required.. I got you

Come with me on some of my fave Hawaii elopement adventures!

Elopement and Wedding Photography in Oahu and Surrounding Islands

Where's the best place to elope in Hawaii?

As a local born and raised on Oahu, I’ll take you to my favorite hidden gems. I know the best beaches to watch the sunset (West side best side!). And the most epic places with mountain and ocean views. These islands hold a special place in my heart and I’d love to be able to share it with you. Every elopement experience respects the aina (land) and its unique people.

Sweet Words

Sweet Words...

She’s not only incredibly talented and professional, but also so fun and easygoing, which made us (a shy couple) feel very comfortable throughout the day Erin guided us with poses, checked in to make sure we loved everything, and created such a fun and enjoyable experience. It started to rain, but she was able to work through it and we had a beautiful rainbow! The photos turned out absolutely stunning, and we were amazed at how quickly we received them! We can’t recommend Erin enough if you’re visiting Oahu. It was a wonderful experience we’ll always cherish. Thank you so much, Erin!
