The Experience

Process

High-end photography, minus the stress. Our unique model puts you in control of your memories.

  1. Pick your island and your light

    Maui, Oahu, Kauai or the Big Island. Sunrise or sunset, on your schedule - we shoot around your trip, not ours.

    Takes 90 seconds
  2. Shoot with a local photographer

    Thirty minutes with someone who lives here and knows which beach holds the light at 6:40pm. The shoot itself costs nothing - bring everyone.

    Session free - $50 holds the slot
  3. Pay only for what you keep

    You see every usable frame from the session before anything is decided. Choose a collection and the $50 comes off the price. Choose none and it comes back in full.

    Refunded if you pass

And then? Only if you love them.

After the shoot

Nothing is decided on the beach. You see every usable frame from the session before a single decision is made. If something lands, we will walk you through the collections then - and your $50 comes straight off whichever one you choose.

If nothing lands, that is a complete answer too. The booking fee comes back and you owe us nothing.

Reviews
These guys are fantastic. Ive used them to take pictures of our 35 years anniversary on Maui. If you want to register your time on Maui, this is your crew.

I was in Maui from Colorado for a photo production with a high profile guest, and Local Hawaii Photographers was on point through the entire thing. Crew was 3 pros who handled everything on-set, were friendly and were SUPER easy to work with. I appreciated having them there and would definitely hire them again.

Questions.

How can the session be free?

Because you are not paying for our time - you are paying for what you keep. We only earn when you choose a collection, which is the strongest possible reason for us to shoot frames you actually want. If nothing lands, the $50 booking fee comes back in full.

What if it rains?

We reschedule free to any slot left in your trip. Hawaii rain usually moves through in twenty minutes, and sometimes leaves the best light of the week behind it.

Who will actually show up?

A vetted photographer who lives on your island. You get their name and phone number in your booking confirmation, so you know exactly who to look for.

Who is Maui Moments?

Our parent studio. You will see that name on your booking confirmation and card statement - same crew, same cameras.

Do you shoot weddings and commercial work?

Yes - multi-photographer production crews for events, brand shoots and corporate anniversaries across all four islands.
