I have nothing but amazing things to say about her. When we received the wedding photos she took on our wedding day, we were blown away. She guided us every step of the way and finding just awesome places to take photos the results were gorgeous we are so in love with our wedding photos ! Thank you so much for making our day and capturing it so we have photos to treasure
Katy was an amazing photographer and very sweet and helpful throughout our big day! My husband and I eloped one Makena Cove in Maui. Katy is so talented and when we received our photos we were absolutely blown away!
I literally can't say enough great things about working with Katy for our Maui wedding. She allowed us to ask a ton of questions prior to booking, and even later had a very thorough survey and phone call with us to make sure she was ready to meet all our needs. She is super knowledgable about the island, which I wouldn't have expected because she's not a local. She gave us beach recommendations, and when our reception location changed to the opposite side of the island, she was super flexible and gave us more choices. Our family and friends loved how professional and the warm touch that she had. And when the beach we went to was crowded, Katy very kindly offered to do a separate couple shoot for us. She is super kind, a great photographer, goes the extra mile, and I HIGHLY recommend working with her! Mahalo, Katy!
We booked Katy for a honeymoon session in Maui. She was incredibly helpful with picking out both a time that worked for us as well as a beautiful location. She was very fun and made us feel at ease the whole session, and the photo turnaround was super quick! I would 100% recommend Katy to anyone looking capture some great memories!
We had such a great time with Kathryn when she did our engagement shoot! She was very professional and gave us some helpful direction when needed. She allowed us to be ourselves and captured some really precious and playful moments. So excited for her to photograph our wedding!
Katy was great to work with. I normally don’t normally like having my picture taken, but Katy’s relaxed attitude really helped me relax and even have fun! So glad for her great eye and talent.
Katy was fabulous! She took our engagement photos and our wedding photos, and we will keep using her for all future events! She is easy to work with, calm, goes with the flow, and puts you at ease. She captures all the moments perfectly with her camera. The photos are beautiful, full of light, and natural.
I am really happy that we chose Katy as our photographer for our wedding. She made us feel very safe on our big date. We met up at the beach before our wedding and talked about expectations. On our wedding day she gave us room for our own shot-ideas and when we ran out, she took the lead, made us feel natural and relaxed, and we got some great photos.
Couldn't recommend her more!
Kathryn is so amazing, and I’m not even sure where to start! We booked her to photograph our elopement on Maui. We chose Maui to elope because we love the island so much, and of course, the weather is almost always perfect. But then a hurricane ended up happening. It was forecasted to be one of the strongest hurricanes to ever hit the island. It was a really stressful time since we weren’t sure if we should cancel the ceremony, and then it turned out we weren’t able to reschedule with the venue, so we had to move forward with it. Through it all, Kathryn was so calm and positive. I had a lot of trouble getting ahold of the wedding planner and the officiant throughout this experience, but Kathryn reached out to me first, and she was always available and willing to help. She even told us what we needed to do to prepare for the hurricane. We had no clue since we live in Arizona! She is a wonderful person, and a true professional!
We are thrilled with the photos! We were able to share them with our family that weren’t able to be there, and our daughter cried when she saw them! And she is not a crier, lol! We’ve already printed several of them for our home. Despite the weather being less than ideal, Kathryn still managed to capture the essence of Maui and the unique experience that we had in getting married on Maui. We are so grateful for her and we can't wait to have her photograph us when we are able to return to Maui as a family.
Kathryn took our anniversary photos a few months ago, and we are so happy with how they turned out! We love how Kathryn made us feel comfortable and at ease. It was a very different experience from other photo sessions that we've had where we felt and looked stiff and unnatural. Kathryn had us walk and talk and laugh with each other, and we actually had a lot of fun during the session! We will cherish these photos for years to come!

I also want to mention that Kathryn is very responsive and timely, which is challenging to find with some businesses on the islands. With the culture being so laid-back in Hawaii, we had a hard time getting other photographers to even respond to our inquiry when we were first searching for a photographer. Kathryn responded right away, and she stayed in touch until the session and even after to make sure that we knew when to expect the photos. Thanks, Kathryn!
Katy was our wedding photographer, and she was so amazing!! She did an amazing job of learning exactly what we wanted, and worked with us to make it happen! She was professional and great at making us feel comfortable and getting us in the right positions for perfect photos. I highly recommend her for weddings or any other photos you want taken!
Incredibly blessed to have run across Kathryn's site as I was looking for a photographer in Maui. Not only was I immediately captivated by the images she had online, but she far exceeded my expectations when we met. She has an ease about her that makes you feel as though you've known each other forever and a way of capturing just the right moments. Both are invaluable! Words can simply not begin to express how grateful my husband and I are for the memories that Kathryn captured of our brief time in Maui for our 20th wedding anniversary. Beautiful photos that will continue to be treasured over the coming years.
Kathryn is an amazing professional, artist and person! We were so lucky to come across her Instagram profile when we were looking for a couple photosession on Maui. She has this unique ability to notice little things that say a lot and capture these moments in such a beautiful way. The photosession was a lot of fun and we appreciated the laid-back atmosphere. All you have to do is be yourself and enjoy! We were very excited to get the photos and Kathryn was so proactive with editing them- the shots were absolutely gorgeous! We cannot be happier! Aloha, Kathryn!
