An Introduction

Thank you for your interest in my work. I began photographing weddings in 2001 while an art student in Vancouver, BC and haven’t looked back. I feel incredibly lucky to now be based on Maui and capture most of my client against the backdrop of this uniquely stunning chain of islands. My work is a balance of documentary, reportage and an artistic editorial style carefully finished to outlast photographic trends. Nearing the end of my second decade of wedding photography I feel more confident than ever in the experience, style, direction, editing, products, and overall quality of service that I offer my clients.

Aloha,
Melia

Fine art albums

I only offer one type of album which has been consistently best over the years. It is the signature book of the best supplier and the industry gold standard. The studio samples I own are still beautiful years later, after much handling and wear. 

These books are crafted in the US using the best archival papers and printing techniques. The stiff eggshell cotton rag paper is approximately 1 mm thick and absorbs archival inks for the richest super-matte printing possible. Covers are available in a variety of silks, linens, leathers and velvet. Custom embossing and foil stamping complete the presentation. A matte lamination is also available to those interested in ultra durability. These volumes are available à la carte or as part of a collection. 

Please inquire if you are interested in seeing more album inspiration and information to help you plan your your ideal book.

Frequently Asked

Absolutely. Please let me know your venue and I’ll try to send some relevant galleries. It can be very instructive while interviewing photographers to view multiple, full galleries from different venues to get a sense of style and consistency. 

With a signed contract and 39% deposit. I’m happy to arrange an online meeting, first, to talk about the specifics of your wedding and to see if we’d be a good fit. Once you have a package in mind I would do up a contract for your review and it becomes active once a deposit is received.

Absolutely.

This varies depending on the time of year and my travel schedule. The majority of weddings are delivered within 30 days, however, during the fall and early winter it’s possible to wait closer to 8 weeks. I do all of my own editing and believe that quality control is worth a slightly slower delivery in some cases.

Yes, you may download the high res files from the gallery and print them anywhere you like. That said, the gallery is conveniently connected to my online store full of curated quality print products from leading labs.
