My husband and I recently traveled to Maui for a honeymoon/babymoon. To commemorate the trip, we…read moredecided to book a photography session. I admittedly looked into things later than I should have and was relieved when Matthew told me he was available the day before we departed back to the Mainland. We opted for a 2-hour sunset session as I wanted to capture some of those beautiful Hawaiian shave-ice colored skies! We were pleasantly surprised when both Matthew and Madelynne showed up -- I wasn't expecting a second shooter! My husband is a bit shy/nervous in front of the camera, but these two made it so fun and easy! (In fact, after the trip my husband admitted the photography session was a major highlight of our vacation!) They were great at directing and open to ideas. They also gave us a few moments to enjoy the sunset to ourselves which made for some great candid shots. They have an excellent eye for capturing both expressions, moments, and of course, the breathtaking landscape of Hawaii. (definitely check out their website and blog -- they have the ability to capture lovely images at all times of day -- early morning, midday, sunset, and even the beautiful starlit sky) We started out in the early evening at our hotel and moved down to a secluded beach later for the sunset session. I honestly did not know exactly what to expect, but after receiving the images (super quick to boot - the turn around time for our session was about a week!!!) I was FLOORED - - I loved just about every single picture. Their style is so unique and unexpected...sophisticated, artistic yet accessible, playful and romantic. You'll definitely have a few pictures that you'll want to blow up and hang above the fireplace! :) For the quality of work you are getting, they are a STEAL. After doing some other research online, I am convinced they are one of the best on the island. I was also quite pleased with their response time -- communicating and coordinating was easy. Although Matthew and Madelynne aren't natives, they really do embody the spirit of the islands -- they are incredibly knowledgeable about island history (in fact, aside from their photography, I think they also do tours!) and spiced up our session with fun facts about Maui and the surrounding islands. (bonus!) Much Aloha goes out to Matthew and Madelynne from Maui Creative Photography! We are incredibly grateful for the beautiful pictures and memories. Book them while you can!!!

First, let me say that we haven't seen all our final photos yet but I am so happy with our…read moreexperience shooting with Matt and Maddy that I figured I'd post a review now based on the 2 teaser shots they sent and our great experience! If you're looking for Maui-based photographers who can capture the majesty of the island scenery with a photojournalistic style that still puts the people as the focus, you need to book the Maui Creative Photography team! It takes real talent to not let the beauty of Maui steal all the attention away from the subjects. We started taking annual family photos 3 years ago and while I don't always like photos of myself, I realized it was such a special way to document our family and preserve special moments. When we planned our second trip to Maui, I realized that it would be awesome to get a beach family photo session. I started googling Maui photographers, spending hours on their websites/blogs and reading Yelp reviews. I didn't feel a connection when reviewing the portfolios of some of the "big names" on Maui who have TONS of Yelp reviews. While I usually get nervous when I see a Yelp vendor with less than 10 reviews, I decided to go with my gut. I'm so grateful to the other Yelpers who shared their experiences with Matt and Maddy and wanted to make sure to add my own review. Go through their entire blog and you'll be so amazed by the stunning scenic shots, the artistic composition/framing of their subjects, the emotions that jump off the page, and the little details that they noticed. I requested a sunrise photo shoot because we stayed on California time and my 5 year old was in bed each night before sunset. Maddy and Matt were waiting for us at 6:30 am at the beach they suggested that was 5 minutes from our condo in Wailea. It was such a great choice with a number of fantastic backdrops: the dark black lava by the water, the vibrant green leafy ground cover (not sure what it's called but I saw it on several beaches), the sprawling tree branches, the golden sand, and even a lovely canopy of leafy trees. My youngest does not like taking photos, but Maddy and Matt had her laughing and jumping in no time. While one took the girls to shoot near the sand, the other took my husband and me near the lava rock. We had twice as many shots as I expected because they often shot different pairs of us (or solo shots) simultaneously. They were both so friendly and patient, they really put us all at ease. I am thrilled with our experience even though I haven't even seen the rest of the photos yet! That's got to be a true testament to how great these two are! I hope to return in the future to do a sunset session when my youngest can stay up later.

I found Caitlin's portfolio online, and I reached out for additional information after seeing her incredible work. Initial contact occurred via email, and she responded very quickly (I think within an hour or so). We arranged a Zoom call to make sure it was a good fit at her suggestion, which was extra effort that we appreciated. She immediately made us feel comfortable and confident that we found our photographer. She described her approach to the work, and had a lot of fantastic ideas for the shoot that we were on board with. Communication was easy and prompt the entire time, and the shoot itself was nothing short of magical. The weather and location were absolutely perfect, and my wife and I had a blast the entire time. Caitlin truly went above and beyond to make us comfortable, guide us artistically, and create a wonderful atmosphere. The results were breathtaking. We received our edited photo gallery faster than we expected, and we were thrilled with the results! We would absolutely recommend Caitlin for any photography needs in Maui. We hope to return with our baby boy for another photo session as soon as he is ready to travel. Thank you Caitlin for helping us to capture this special time in our lives! PS: she also had great food recommendations that we otherwise might have missed.

We have a 20 month old who was not very interested in taking photos and she was able to still get many BEAUTIFUL shots of our family. Very natural photos which have life and vitality. Not your typical staged, stagnant family photos. She is very kind and easy to work with. Great with kids! Other photographers in the same price point only offered half of shooting time she provided and only 10-15ish edited photos. She offered 1hr for 100 edited photos. Quite a significant increase in value considering her work is so excellent.
