From the first email inquiring about her services, I knew Calea was going to be wonderful to work with! She had a very quick response time and worked with me to figure out the best package for our special day. Leading up to the wedding, Calea was readily available to answer any questions I had and even helped me with a timeline for the day. On the day of our wedding, Calea drove to a neighboring county from our venue for us to be able to get some first look and family photos done before the ceremony. I was worried about what types of poses we'd do but this worry quickly went away as Calea makes you feel completely comfortable and fully guided us through all the photos, making it an enjoyable experience rather than a stressful or uncomfortable one. She captured every single detail beautifully. Venue, decor, detail shots, vendors, cake & dessert, various views during the ceremony, guests, dancing, special moments, etc. She stayed beyond the agreed upon contract time just for us to be able to get the perfect sunset shots in the vineyard. This really showed her dedication to her work and to her clients. I love the sneak peek photos she sends and the turn around time for all the entire album was very quick and they sure did NOT disappoint. I was overwhelmed with how beautiful all the photos came out. She is truly talented and it shows in her work. My husband and I are grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Calea and love looking back on our special day that she captured so perfectly! Thank you Calea!!

I am one of those people who just LOVE weddings. Specifically I love capturing the happiest moments for my couples and being able to make beautiful moments for my brides to look back on. I want the bride to have photos where she feels beautiful, confident, and timeless. My main markets are Columbus Ohio, Palm Springs, California, Hawaii, and Florida, BUT I LOVE and am willing to travel farther. I’m not one of those photographers who just decided one day to pick a camera up and just start doing weddings, Photography has been my entire life, this is my 15th year capturing wedding experiences for my brides. I love telling your authentic story.

She not only took pictures for us, she put together a timeline for all photos, answered any and all random wedding questions I text. haha! She is a wealth of knowledge and does beautiful work. We wouldn't change a thing about our experience and will be using her again.

Aloha and congrats! You’re considering to get married on the beautiful islands of Hawai’i or beyond — your own slice of paradise! I’m here to help you capture it in the most spontaneous, colourful, and nostalgic way possible. My name is Tâm, a full-time Dutch freelance photographer with a passion for traveling the world and capturing once-in-a-lifetime moments for amazing couples like you! From enchanting Mediterranean coastlines to fairytale châteaux in France, with Italy and Brazil on the horizon this summer and next year — clients have entrusted me to capture their love stories in a way that feels authentic, personal, and timeless.

From the very first time we reached out to Tâm, he was so enthusiastic and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. Before even putting together a proposal, he took the time to really listen to our ideas and get familiar with the location, which made us feel so at ease and understood. What really stood out was his initiative, he went beyond just showing up with a camera. He suggested a beautiful nature reserve near our venue for part of the photo session, something we hadn’t even thought of, and it turned out to be one of our favourite parts of the day! I was a little nervous at first, worried the photos might feel too posed or unnatural, but Tâm reassured us to just be in the moment and enjoy each other while he worked his magic. And honestly, we couldn’t be happier with the results! The photos feel so effortless, real, and full of emotion. We’re beyond grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully!

Hey hey 👋, I’m LaDonna. Wedding photographer & videographer with a passion for celebrating the love stories of couples from all walks of life. Growing up in the suburbs of Boston and attending undergrad in Connecticut, I’m a true New England gal. Winter holds a special place in my heart, as I embrace the beauty and charm of every location I photograph.

That would honestly make my heart smile! 😊 My mission: create timeless, heirloom-quality artwork that reflects the unique connection & individuality of each couple I have the honor to serve.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

I'm Kylene and I am a cinematic and storytelling wedding and elopement photographer based on Oahu Hawaii and serving all Hawaiian islands. I am devoted to capturing the authentic, raw moments that make your story unique. With a storytelling and documentary-style approach, I focus on the honest emotions and intimate connections that unfold naturally throughout your day, capturing your story with sincerity. My goal is to capture not just the beautiful moments, but the genuine emotions and the spirit of your celebration.

Throughout my wedding process, she has proven to be trustworthy, kind, and incredibly understanding. Kylene frequently checked in with me to ensure I had all the vendor locations and details sorted out, and she offered invaluable insights about the area in Florida where I was getting married. She also had a detailed meeting with my husband and I to confirm our wishes for our day, which put me at ease because she took very detailed notes about what I wanted and envisioned on my day. Just before the wedding, Kylene confirmed the type of photography I wanted and which photos were most important to me. On the wedding day, she upheld all of my wishes and made sure my entire family felt included. Afterward, she provided a sneak peek of the photos incredibly quickly and put together an amazing album with my input. She also ensured I had access to my photos until I could download and purchase the ones I liked. I would highly recommend Kylene to anyone seeking special photos. She is truly amazing!

I originally found Masha through Zola and was impressed by her editorial style photos. I am so happy that Masha was available to photograph our wedding. She made me feel so comfortable and so gorgeous all day. My husband was nervous about being in front of the camera but she helped guide our posing and he looks very natural in the end result! Photography is a large part of the wedding day and I'm grateful I spent that time with Masha. I am picky about photos since my dad is very passionate about photography, especially film photography. The photos (both digital and the film ones) turned out absolutely incredible. She took both traditional wedding portraits as well as some very dreamy gorgeous editorial-like photos. It's hard to convey how happy I am about the experience. I'm already dreaming about another vow renewal so I can book Masha again!

I’ve shot all over the world from Iceland, Ireland, & France to all over the Midwest, all the way to California and Hawaii, and I believe that you should say “I do,” in a place that makes you feel like home.

Terra at Earth's Island Photography is an absolute rockstar. We are BEYOND THRILLED with our wedding photos (just look at them! they're incredible!) and on top of it, she was such a joy to work with from start to finish. We spent a lot of time looking at portfolios of different photographers in Hawaii, and Terra was far and above our favorite- and she captured for us exactly the beauty and love that we were so enchanted by in her portfolio. - Terra was so organized and helpful before the event, helping us with a proposed timeline for photos and travel (getting ready photos, ceremony, sunset couple photos, reception, etc), having us draft a list of the group photos we wanted to make sure to take, looking at examples for ideas of the kinds of photos we wanted, suggesting the best beaches for sunset photos, and even recommending places for our last-minute rehearsal dinner. Just everything- and it put us so at ease to have it all sorted. - She is such a kind and sweet human! She is so friendly and lovely, and made our wedding day just that more wonderful by being such a ray of sunshine. She coached us into flattering positions, she was creative and up for any shot, and she waded into the ocean and scrambled over lava rocks to make sure she go the best angles of us on the beach. Just a dream to work with. - What an expert! She knows what she's doing- and it shows. We loved that she had a ton of experience shooting weddings in Hawaii, and the photos she captured for us all day were just top-tier perfection. Her skills with the camera are exceptional, her skills with retouching are exceptional- she is such a highly-skilled photography professional and we could not have asked for better photos. Terra was so supportive, charming, and cheerful, she captured our wedding so beautifully and perfectly, and she delivered an amazing gallery of memories (faster than expected!) I cannot say enough good things about her- she is just amazing. Thank you SO MUCH Terra!

She is someone who really makes her clients feel comfortable in every aspect of the shoot.

She not only meets the needs of her clients, but by far exceeds your expectations!! We eloped last minute and she was able to arrange a time with me to be able to capture our special day, which I will always be grateful for. The experience with which she directed not only us, but our family, made the shoot that much more amazing. She made us feel like family and ensured that we got the best of the best out of our day.

these are the values that drive my biz: you are allowed to be YOU: this is a space that was created out of a ferocious desire to give the permission for you to be fully and fearlessly you. this is a space where you are wanted for being exactly YOU. embrace the ordinary: there is truly nothing better than right here, right now: the present moment is the sacred ground that holds all of who you may be, but more importantly, who you are right. now. be curious: the most beautiful things in life lay in the listening. we are surrounded by beauty, wisdom, groundedness, genius, love… if only we will listen.

Mar photographed our engagement session, and from the very beginning, she was thoughtful, patient, and incredibly easy to work with. She gave us great suggestions for locations, was flexible with planning, and made the entire process feel effortless and calm. On the day of the shoot, I was feeling rushed, unprepared, and honestly not very confident. But Mar’s presence shifted everything. She made both me and my fiancé feel so comfortable and seen—even though we had never taken couples photos before. Her calm energy grounded me, and by the end of the session, I felt radiant. As a melanated woman, I’ve often worried about how my skin would be captured on camera. Mar didn’t try to lighten or alter anything—she embraced who I am. I looked like myself in the photos: natural, beautiful, and deeply loved. That meant so much to me. Mar is more than just a talented photographer—she’s someone who truly sees people. I left that day not only with stunning images, but with a full heart and deep gratitude. I can’t recommend her enough.
