This may be my absolute favorite spot in Makena, Maui for your family photos, for your wedding, your Maui vow renewal, a proposal, for anything – really. It’s one of those locations that is quite literally hidden between lava rocks and can sometimes be tricky to get to. Especially difficult depending on what time of year you are visiting the islands. When you book your Maui photoshoot with me, I’ll be sure to check in on locations prior to your date if there have been storms, high tides, etc.
One thing about this Maui beach location, you’ll be lucky if you ever get it to yourself or with less than 10 other groups! It is VERY popular & VERY small – it is truly so beautiful and unique. A beach location every one dreams of seeing someday. Soft sand surrounded by turquoise waters, palm trees, and lava rock; sign me up please!
The beautiful thing about a Maui elopement; it can be as simple or as extravagant as you want it to be. In Hawai’i you’re surrounded by beauty the moment you step off the plane. When you hire me to help you plan your Maui wedding or elopement, I do more than just take the pictures. I’ll help you find these gorgeous hidden gem locations that are legal to photograph at, safe, and perfect!
Makena Cove is beautiful at sunrise or at sunset. Just really depends on your vibe! Sunrise offers cooler temperatures, softer lighting, less crowds, and plenty turtles. Sunset is iconic, golden, breezy, and much busier on the beaches – everyone wants to watch the sunset show! While planning your Maui beach elopement, ask your photographer for help! I can help you decide on the best time of day to have your ceremony & photos.
Dreaming of getting married in Hawai’i? I’d love to help you plan your special day and capture it all too! Your Maui photographer is a great place to start when planning your destination beach wedding!
