Took our wedding photos in Maui back in March. Absolutely beautiful, my wife and I still can’t stop looking at them and just how amazing they turned out. The photographers were great to work with and awesome people! Thank you again to Penny Palmer Photography we are so grateful! Highly recommended!!
When I think of a kind soul with an infectious smile and amazing talent, I think of Penny Palmer. I was lucky enough to find Penny for our wedding photographer and I couldn't have made a better decision. Penny's passion for her photography and her couples truly shines through in her work. She perfectly captured the love and humor that resides between my husband and I and it comes through in every shot. She is a true artist and after working with her, I feel like I am not only a client but now a friend and family.
We used them for our wedding photography and they were absolutely amazing! Went above and beyond on our pictures!
What a wonderful person and photographer, so professional ! 10 stars for Penny! She is simply amazing and so easy and fun to work with. Penny did all of the wedding pictures for our daughter's wedding last weekend, I have just seen a sample of the pictures and already they are all so beautiful. We couldn't have asked for a kinder, more patient photographer with such attention to detail! Penny knew all the shots and angles and even had some really nice unusual first look photos for our daughter and her fiancé'. Penny is absolutely the best photographer on island! Such a pleasure to work with... despite all the devastation Maui had just incurred. Thank you Penny!! You helped make Lindsey and Bo's day special ! Big Mahalos !!!
Penny was recommended to us through Aloha Maui Dream weddings and she was fantastic. She came to our condo to take “getting ready” photos and first look photos. She was patient, kind, and took really beautiful photos. After the ceremony she directed us to take some really fun and special photos. We had so much fun and it was obvious she has done this a million times, she ran us through everything with ease. Thank you Penny!! These photos are a gorgeous memory that we will have forever.
We had Ian from Penny Palmer Photography for our wedding on Maui. He was wonderful. He captured beautiful and creative pictures while putting us at ease. He also supplied us with some great island info.
We booked penny Palmer photography as part of a package with aloha Maui dream weddings. The photographer was exceptional! She managed to capture the most amazing photos.. and we didn’t feel as if we were part of a photo shoot! It was natural and easy! She captured us as ourselves and in real moments we shared. She captured the most beautiful parts of the ceremony that were more beautiful in print than we had in our memory of that day! We couldn’t have been more pleased with our photos or the responsiveness of receiving them. If your reading this review. And want your day to be fun. Lighthearted and as easy as you can imagine!! Not to mention captured in print to be more beautiful than you remember.. then you found your photographer with penny Palmer photography! You will not be sorry.. I promise!
Penny is a magician behind the camera! She captured the most beautiful moments of our most special day, she is extremely professional and has such an amazing personality. I have used many professional photographers on the mainland and she is hands down THE BEST! I highly recommend that you make the right choice and have her capture your most special day.
With this being our first trip off the mainland US and not knowing what to expect, as a photographer, Penny brought us the experience of a lifetime. We expected a run of the mill conveyor belt photography service and were provided a breathtaking experience where we were catered to, explained, and put as the center of attention every step of the way. We were asked to provide a synopsis of our relationship prior to our vacation and were astounded when she recalled so many details, as if they she did her homework to tailor the experience to us with extreme precision. Exceeding expectation is an understatement. We can't recommend Penny enough!!!!
Our wedding was perfect and everything went so smoothly! I really appreciated Darci being so attentive and helping us sort everything out so quickly. It was our dream wedding elopement. The officiant was so sweet and made the ceremony feel so special. The photographer was very detail oriented and so nice as well! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience 😊
Penny and her team of professionals, coupled with Aloha Maui Dream Weddings is a dynamite combination. We all had so much fun not only at the wedding but also at the Trash The Dress photoshoot we did as well. Her pictures are captivating and breathtaking. What she can capture through her lens is truly amazing.
Penny was absolutely amazing!! We trusted a stranger and she went above and beyond. These memories of our elopement we will treasure forever. You can tell really loves what she does, she would get excited when she got the shot she was hoping for. Penny was patient and took her time to make sure we got the pictures that we dreamt of, also used lots of cool props to get some pretty amazing pictures.
Thankyou SO much Penny! You are seriously amazing at what you do.
We can't speak highly enough about our experience with the fantastic people at Penny Palmer Photography. Penny and Darci were AMAZING!
The photos came out fantastic and we are so happy that we chose them to be a part of our special day. We will have these photos forever!
We had a great experience with Penny Palmer as our photographer. We are so happy with the results, all pictures are great . Penny was perfect during the ceremony, very professional and very experienced, she knew exactly what to do and was giving great instructions. We definitely recommend Penny if you have to organize a wedding in Maui.
My husband and I got married on May 3rd, 2021 and the day was nothing short of perfect. Darci helped me with every thing along the way no matter how big or small it was! I only wish I could relive this perfect day over and over again. Penny Palmer captured the most amazing photos that we got back SO quickly. I would highly recommend Darci with Aloha Maui Dream Weddings and Penny Palmer photography to anyone!!!
Absolutely amazing! They were waiting at our site and covered everything, and were so fun and made taking the photos so much fun! I record using penny for all your photo needs!
Stunning photos, quick turnaround and went off all the awesome reviews before to choose this talented photographer. They helped with lots of planning details such as cakes and flowers too. Incredible company
With Darci as my wedding planner and Nicole as my photographer, I could not have asked for a better duo! Darci made the months, weeks, days, and even hours before my wedding stress-free and magical. Being a gal who is rarely a fan of being in front of the camera, I was surprised at how well Nicole was able to capture real personality and smiles. I just went through my entire gallery with my husband, and we were smiling from ear to ear reliving the moment. The pictures look like something from a fairytale: beautiful colors, amazing lighting, and genuine love. I could not be happier!
THISSSS is what dreams are made of! There are not enough words to express our gratitude to Darci and the entire Aloha Maui Dream Weddings team and especially Penny Palmer Photography! From painless planning, to flawless execution and breathtaking photos- the proof is in the details! From a distance, we felt a connection & knew we were in great hands! Having traveled from Florida, we had to blindly trust and put our Faith in their expertise and knowledge of the island! Thank God we did! From keeping a nervous groom calm during a freak storm and being flexible with locations to accommodate nature, Darci and Penny’s confidence and professionalism reassured this bride that my dream wedding would be absolutely perfect! AND THEY DELIVERED! We were blessed with the Hawaiian Wedding Trifecta- ⛈ 🐳 🌈- and they captured it all! A million MAHALO’s DONT GO ANYWHERE ELSE! You’ve stumbled on THE best of the best!
Penny is a one-of-a-kind photographer! She allowed us to have fun and feel so relaxed throughout our whole wedding, not to mention the gold class photos the she managed to produce for us. She went above and beyond to ensure we felt at ease whilst always maintaining her professional approach. We did not give specific instruction to Penny, we allowed her to be creative and explore the kind of photographs she wanted to take, this was the best decision we could have ever made! Our photos did not look like your ‘typical’ staged and posed wedding photos, they are expressive, fun and romantic with the beautiful scenery and views captured exactly as we saw them (if not even better!). Thank you so much Penny, we are so privileged to say not only did we have the most incredible wedding photographer but we have also found a true friend in you!
We we fortunate enough to hire Penny, along with Aloha Maui Dream Weddings, for our recent wedding in Maui, and it was the best choice we could have made. Two of the most important qualities for a wedding photographer, in my opinion, are 1) creating gorgeous photographs that truly capture the heart and spirit of the event, and 2) being unobtrusive in the process of creating those photos. And Penny excelled at both of these things. When we saw our photo album from her, we were blown away by the beauty of the pictures, the perfect exposures, backgrounds, and lighting....but most of all, the way she absolutely captured the magic of the day and the joy that we were feeling in those moments. Her photos were fluid, emotional, composed perfectly to capture the feeling of the shot....there were no stiff, formal (boring), lifeless photos. They were vibrant and alive and we can now relive the joy of our wedding day just by viewing our photos. Mahalo Penny! You were relaxed, fun, and truly so unobtrusive that we even forgot we were being photographed (the ultimate compliment to a wedding photographer!). Hire Penny...you won't be sorry and you won't need to worry about whether or not your pictures will be great! And, as an added bonus, her prices are phenomenal!
Penny was awesome She was punctual she had a great personality and she wants nothing but the best for your photos. She was amazing i couldn’t thank her enough.
Aloha Maui Dream Wedding made planning so easy. There was no stress or worries going into the wedding day. There were certain details we did not want in the ceremony and they made sure they were not included. Penny was our photographer she was so easy to be around and be ourselves. Darci was by our side the whole time letting us know what we would be doing, how things will happen and making sure we were on schedule. We wanted a sunset ceremony and everything went smoothly, we had a beautiful ceremony. We cannot thank Aloha Maui Dream Weddings enough for our special day.
We got married in Maui with the help of Aloha maui dream Weddings, they were absolutely amazing, they did a great job, really Profesional, they took time to know my husband and I, in the way they could make a really meaningful pictures as we wanted , we'll never forget this special moment in our life, they make it unforgettable.
Thank you so much to all their team for their amazing job
Penny is amazing! Our pictures came out so beautiful!
Darci and Penny were fantastic! They made our wedding experience completely stress free and the ceremony was beautiful. Our families were so impressed with how smoothly everything went, especially since we live far from Hawaii and it was my first time visiting so I didn’t know what to expect.
Penny perfectly captured our intimate wedding ceremony at Makena Cove, Maui. Everything during the ceremony seemed natural - it didn’t seem like Penny was even there but when we got the photos she every moment of the ceremony was there! After the official parted the ceremony was over, she guided us to take some really amazing shots at the beach where the ceremony took place. She was definitely very experienced and knew the right angles but at the same time she made it fun, and it shows on the photos. Penny Palmer Photography was included in our Aloha Maui Dream Weddings package but originally we only selected an option with viewing the full wedding gallery for 14 days and then picking the best 3 photos. We loved Penny’s photos so much that we decided to buy the whole gallery! The price was very reasonable for the the amazing high quality photos that we got. We already shared the photos with our family and friends and everyone loves them! Mahalo for your amazing work!
Great photos, great prices, great experience! Fast communication, and very willing to help. Very glad Penny was our wedding photographer!
What we expected to be an amazing day Darci and Penny made INCREDIBLE!!
From the start they set our minds at ease by replying quickly to any emails we sent answering any questions we had, setting our minds at ease that they had everything handled and we didn't need to worry about anything because they had it all sorted!
Our wedding day was perfect, Our Beach was the perfect location, our own little paradise. We loved how it was focused on our relationship, our trials during our time together. It made the ceremony so personal and knowing it was specific to us was lovely!
We not only had an awesome wedding day we met two people who we were honoured to share our day with.
The photo's told the story of our wedding so well, we are able to share our day with our family and friends even though they weren't there.
Thank you so much Darci and Penny, we are so grateful!
We had our initial wedding planned by Darci and photographed by Penny and it was an amazing experience! They both were very welcoming and accommodating with every ask. We had such a connection with both Darci and Penny that when our 5 year anniversary rolled around we didn't think twice to reach out to them to capture the special moment again for us!
They are both the utmost of professionals and we would recommend them to anyone looking to plan a wedding or anniversary on Maui!
My husband and I were amazed at how easy it was to plan our wedding from the states. Darci handled everything and our wedding was so perfect. Our ceremony was so personal and beyond our expectations. I highly recommend Darci and her team to anyone that is planning on getting married in Maui! Penny was wonderful as well and the pictures came out amazingly. Mahalo!
Penny was an absolute joy to work with. Our photos are stunning. She knew just how to make the lighting work with the sunset. I wasn't sure what to expect from photos on the beach but she blew away any preconceived notions of "elopement beach photos." My husband and I couldn't just pick a limited amount of them for our package we selected... we ended up buying them all. They were all just so good!
Penny provides the perfect balance of technical expertise and artistry. She knows just exactly how to capture the feeling of the moment, and she played with the light so well at our beach vow renewal ceremony at sunset that each and every frame tells perfectly just the story we hoped to tell. Every time my wife and I look at our pictures we feel transported back to that wonderful event. We are SO LUCKY to have found Penny to record this loving milestone in our lives. If you make use of her services you'll consider yourselves lucky too!
Penny helped make our day amazing. The preview photographs she showed us and that were posted are to die for, and we cannot wait to get the full gallery! She took amazing photos and knew exactly how to get just the perfect shot of the entire occasion. Would recommend her a million times over.
AMAZING photos! I especially love that we had so many shots to choose from and we weren't even aware of some of the ones she took. Very professional, and personal. Reasonable pricing, such great quality. Penny captured our personalities and the best of us! We are just so happy with it all. MAHALO, PENNY!
Darci and Penny, Where do I start?!
I was never the girl that dreamed about their fairytale wedding growing up. I never imagined my perfect wedding dress, hair style or decor. Not to Imply that I never thought it would happen one day, it was just not something I pictured as a little girl.
When Rob and I got engaged, I had NO IDEA where to even start! I joined all of the bridal email list to hopefully gain some clarity. It didn't work, lol. Overwhelmed doesn't even begin to touch on how I was feeling.
After Rob and I decided that we would "elope" in Maui, it got even more overwhelming. How was I supposed to plan our wedding 4,605 miles away. I googled so many companies. I almost chose a different company until they sent me a sample wedding video. It made me cringe.
I started focusing more on the reviews of these companies. I came across Aloha Maui Dream Weddings and loved the reviews I was reading. I reached out one night and the planning began.
We put 100% blind trust in these women solely based on social proof and that is why I hope anyone reading this, that might be on the fence, chooses AMDW!
From the start, Darci put my mind at ease. She was readily available for me whenever I wanted to talk, even with a 6hour time difference and anytime I started to panic, she would bring me back to normal and reassure that everything would be great! She scheduled our marriage license appt, she linked me up with Bea from Classic Elegance Artistry who made me feel like a princess and she made sure every single detail was perfect! We had an awesome unity sand ceremony that included my son, who also got a Lei during the Lei exchange.
These 2 ladies then hiked almost a MILE down a cliff to accommodate a photo shoot that we really, really wanted. It was hot and uncomfortable but once we were down there, Penny was in her zone. She is so professional and so good at what she does. I could not have asked for more from these two!
For the little girl who never dreamed about her wedding day, If I had, I am POSITIVE it was exactly how June 29th 2018 went.
We are glad to have you both as our Ohana now! We love you!
Mahalo!
Our photos were absolutely mind blowing! They were everything I could imagine plus! Penney is very talented and takes her time capturing the most amazing photos! We can’t wait to have more pictures by her when we go back to renew our wedding vowes!
Pics were amazing! Definitely recommend!
Penny was a wonderful photographer. We were suppose to have a dear friend of ours fly out to Hawaii to take our wedding photos and last minute we found out she wasn’t able to go, Darci (Aloha Maui Dream Weddings) said she had us covered and she most definitely did! She told us exactly what to do and made the picture taking so easy. My husband and I are not much into getting our pictures taken but we felt very comfortable and she definitely made us laugh along the way.
Everything was perfect and these lovely women made it our dream wedding and we will forever be thankful! I can't wait to see the rest of the photos!!
We love you! Mahalo!
Penny’s photos of my parent’s 60th Anniversary Vow Renewal were fabulous. They brought out the best of the beautiful setting and the feelings of such an emotional event. It was a pleasure to meet her. Penny’s friendliness and stamina made the picture-taking easy and fun for everyone in our family. We highly recommend her reliable service and expertise.
We could not have asked for a better experience than the one we had with Penny as our wedding photographer. We were married on the beach and it was just the two of us. Penny (and Darci) made our wedding so much fun. They were not only our coordinators and photographer, but we felt like they were our friends there helping us celebrate such a wonderful day. Penny knew exactly when to take the shot and used different filters to make the shots perfect. She was so professional and we couldn't be happier with both the experience and the photos. She is amazing!! Thanks again Penny!!!
Penny was AMAZING to work with! She came with our package from Aloha Maui Dream Weddings and we couldn't be more pleased with the service we received. She was patient, kind, and creative with our shots. We received our digital images SO quickly, within a week, not months like you wait for some other photographers. Highly reccomend!
Darci and Penny together are the most trusted commissioner and photographer team that we could have asked for. Not only does Penny take beautiful photos but Darci is also amazing with kids. In our wedding shoot this past summer they made our ceremony hassle-free and meaningful, despite this is our first time being in wonder Hawaii. The results were incredible photographs that we will treasure forever.
Where do we begin!
Booking a wedding 19 hours away by plane was a daunting experience to begin with...until we spoke to Penny and Darci. They were so warm, so well informed and immediately put us at ease. The photos turned out to be everything we could have hoped for and more. Penny is a truly talented photographer and we will treasure our wedding photos forever. We cannot thank her and Darci enough for making our day perfect xxxx
I cannot get over how beautiful my pictures turned out! I booked Penny for getting ready, wedding, and another trash the dress photo shoot. She was so fun to work with, she had us laughing the whole time! She really knows the best way to pose you to get a more flattering angle. She is so dedicated to her job, during my trash the dress photo shoot she was scaling lava rocks with me and at one point was in the water pretty much up to her waist to get the perfect shot! I was so impressed with her and am so happy to have these beautiful pictures to cherish forever! Thank you, Penny!
Penny and her team were fantastic, creative and organized. Exceeded the intense expectations of a bride to be. Our family is in love with the moments captured and created on our big day! Hire them! They will not disappoint!
Penny and her team were fantastic!!! I hate being photographed but she made me and my husband feel great, it was so natural and fun!!! And the photos are gorgeous, you can tell she truly cares about making you feel special and her talent is off the charts!!! Thank you with all my heart Penny and Aloha!!!
We couldn't have asked for anything more from Darci and Penny! Even though they perform ceremonies day after day, their passion made us feel like we were special. The history Darci provided was meaningful and Penny did a great job not being distracting at all. We hope to bring the family back for a renewal in 5 years and will be honored if Darci and Penny will perform the ceremony and take photos. Thanks so much!
As an attendee of the wedding, it was so nice to have Penny Palmer capturing all of the special moments so that everyone else could give their full attention to the beautiful ceremony. The wedding day would not have been the same without Penny Palmer Photography.
Great photos of the couple. I especially enjoyed the action shots of the reception and the beautiful shots of the couple on the beach <3
The wedding was set with a beautiful, romantic backdrop at the beach in Maui, but without Penny’s photography, the wedding photos would not have been the same. The wedding photos were stunning!! Penny and Darci (the wedding planner) made such an amazing team. They worked so well together and made the wedding day so memorable. The photos just bring me back to the special day that I got to share in with my beautiful friend Marina and her now husband Steve. You cannot ask for a better way to reminisce about your special day than with the magic of Penny Palmer Photography.
Penny was experienced, professional and creative. She captured so many beautiful moments in our wedding. I love sharing our pictures to our friends and family. Mahalo Penny!
My moms pictures were AH-Mazing! It was such a special day and we have the best pictures to show for it thanks to Penny.
Penny is an amazing photographer! The pictures she took of our wedding couldn't have been any better. She is so professional and knowledgeable about her craft. You can tell this is something she loves to do and in turn is amazing at it. She took a large variety of posed and candid shots. At places like the beach timing is everything for those great splashing wave shots and man did she pull it off! She's a great photographer and also such a sweetheart, during a moment where I felt self conscious she told me a story about someone she met in Thailand and it made me feel beautiful and confident and you can really see the difference in the photos. So thank you so much Penny for making our amazing day just that much better by being a part of it.
Penny photographed our wedding, her photos turned out stunning. Along with posed shots she also took some really great candid shots. We loved every photo she took and our family and guest did too. She was very professional throughout our whole day and we so enjoyed her and her team.
Superb and creative photographer. Fantastic customer service as well! She really listened to the bride, and really made an effort to work with our guests as well. Everyone is happy and the photos are amazing...
Penny produced some absolutely amazing photos that show craftsmanship and attention to detail while also leaving room for romance and passion. We could not be more pleased with the photos and feel that there is no one better to have helped us capture the vision of our special day. We are grateful to Penny, Penny's assistant and Darcy (our coordinator and officiant) for creating a day that we will hold dear for the rest of our lives.
Penny and her helper were both polite and professional! And because of that I have some of the best memories of our wedding day! Totally awesome pictures! Loved working with her!
