But will they have backup gear and many years of experience in all lighting scenarios? Will they know how to pose you so you don't look like a deer in the headlights? Will they know how to get a permit so you don't get fined for taking you to an illegal spot?
I've been a professional wedding photographer for over 14 years on Maui. I understand the light here, know all the locations like the back of my hand, and am a super organized and punctual virgo.
Sneak peeks within 48 hours and around 6 weeks for your full wedding gallery.
I use high end Canon mirrorless cameras and have backups of everything. I have been shooting here for years so you could say I know what I'm doing.
I KNOW how it feels to not want your photo taken (I'm always the one who has their eyes closed in photos) I'm a pro at putting you and your loved ones at ease during your wedding day.
I believe in getting back to you as soon as I physically can. Your wedding is important to me.
I'm easy going, and dont get flustered easily, I hope to be your guide during the fast moving pace of a wedding day.
Creating otherworldly images, that knock your socks off is part of the process.
For those of you who want to do the whole shebang in Maui, where better to celebrate your marriage?! Warm air, amazing food, great company, Hawaii weddings are the BEST! You can't go wrong.
Want someone to take the planning and stress out of your hands? I got you love! I know all the cool kids who will make your day look and feel like a million bucks, I'll round them all up and take care of everything for you!
I know Maui like the back of my hand and can take you to the most magical locations, once you book with me you'll also receive a vendor list to help you narrow down all the other amazing peeps that you need to make your day go with a bang!
Here's your chance to take some gorgeous photos with stunning Maui as the backdrop! I can assist you with all the things, location choice, picking the best outfits for your session, I'll keep the session FUN and flowing, and you'll have amazing photos to look back on!
My style has been described as earthy, organic, natural, cinematic. I focus on natural moments over posed, I don't photoshop you to within an inch of your life, I want you to look like YOU. I want your photos to be an accurate representation of you and your day, and bring all the memories flooding back.
Lets get on a call and discuss your day! The best thing to do, is to envisage how you see your photos being displayed, will you print an album? If so, imagine telling the story of your day from start to finish. If you simply had ceremony photos and that's it, wouldn't you miss out on all the important moments, getting ready, your mom adjusting your necklace, your dad seeing you for the first time in your wedding attire, and the same goes even if it's just the two of you! Telling the story from start to finish is what will keep your memories alive for years to come.
Yes and Yes. My insurance covers me for up to 2 million.
Living in the tropics its a distinct possibility it might rain! If we're shooting a couples session, we can try to move location, or reschedule, and the same applies to elopements, if you're having a larger wedding, we'll brave the (warm) rain and bring umbrellas and be prepared! Rain on your wedding day in Hawaii is a blessing anyway! I love a little moody wind and rain in photos.
I like to keep you looking as natural as possible, I believe every BODY is beautiful! I will however photoshop out unsightly background objects or people.
Most of my clients come from out of town, I'd love to meet for a coffee or a Margarita beforehand time permitting, but I'm also used to seeing most of my clients on the big day! If you'd like to chat with me before your wedding face to face I'm always happy to Facetime!
I will send you over a contract and invoice for the retainer which is $1000 to secure your date with the remainder due thirty days before.
I don't always use a second photographer apart from the larger and longer weddings, I'm well used to working alone and just use an extra pair of hands to capture all those smiling faces of your family members who have come from far and wide to see you get married!
"Leading up to the wedding she was very professional and prompt in her messages and responses. She really listened to us to get an idea of what we wanted.
She spent the day with us and we couldn't be happier with the results. Even when the weather changed and temps dropped where we were all pretty chilly, she was still capturing the day and moments and the results were stunning. Even though we eloped; our friends and family said the pictures were so perfect and detailed that it made them feel as if they were there with us. We can't recommend Amy enough and we are so happy to have our special day captured by her. "

You know the feeling you get when you find something at a store that you really want but you end up leaving without it? Then think about it so much that you want to go back and get it? And find all the reasons you actually need it, not just want it? This is exactly how I felt when my husband Fernando and I were searching for our photographer. I went through the instagrams, the knot reviews, the Facebook reviews and the websites of many. But there was only really one that I kept coming back to, and that was Amy Jayne’s. There was something about how earthy, natural, moody and organic her photos were that captivated us each time. We wanted and needed a feeling, a vibe, a spark while we tried to determine who we would want to do our engagement and wedding photos. Amy’s style fulfilled that. I knew I found something right away. But I let it sit for a while, contemplated and compared others that I liked, but all I could think about was how I could not have my photos done by anyone but her. Amy was wonderful from the get-go. During the phase we were getting to know each other and figuring out if it was the right fit, the process was smooth and seamless. It was easy, and I am a stress ball, so that says a lot.

"She was an absolute dream to work with on our wedding day. My husband was very particular when picking a photographer and the fact that he was so happy with her speaks volumes! I am so thankful she was there to capture our special moments. Every time I look at the photos we got back from her, happy tears of joy come to my eyes. If you need a photographer in Maui, look no further!"
