Maui Elopement Photographer
Photographs that leave you feeling seen.
One of the best part is the moment one of you looks at the other and says…
“I’m so happy we did this!”
Hey, I’m Evangeline
A Maui elopement and intimate wedding photographer forever inspired by this beautiful island I call home.
I’ve never fit into a box — and your story doesn’t have to either.
Most couples tell me they want the day to feel natural, present, and true to them.
My approach is intentionally slower and more grounded. We’ll walk through the landscape together, pause when something feels beautiful, and create space for you to actually experience the day instead of rushing through it.
My goal is to help you have an experience that feels effortless — one that melts the stress away and makes you say, “this is so us.”
I photograph elopements across Hawai‘i year-round and return to Big Sur for a limited number of elopements every October.
My promise to you.
Many of the couples I work with have never stood in front of a camera before — and that balance of anticipation and nerves is completely natural. What I offer is a calm presence and a gentle rhythm to the day, so you can settle in, breathe deeply, and simply be with each other. From that space, the images unfold naturally — photographs that carry not just how you looked, but how it all felt.
Why Maui feels like magic.
Maui just pulls you in — the kind of place where you show up stressed and leave wondering why you ever lived anywhere else.
The light hits the cliffs at an angle that makes everything look ancient. The air smells like salt and plumeria and occasionally the inside of a rainforest. The lava rock is still warm underfoot at sunset.
It’s wildly diverse for a 727-square-mile island. You can start your morning above the clouds on Haleakalā and end it watching the sun drop into the Pacific from a cliff on the North Shore. You can elope in a bamboo forest, on a volcanic coastline, beside a waterfall nobody else knows about, or on a beach so quiet it feels like it was made for exactly this moment.
As someone who lives here — I know where the light lands, which trails give you the whole North Shore at dawn, and how to build a day that feels like Maui rather than a postcard of it.
That’s the difference.
Kind Words
“It’s not an overstatement to say that hiring Evangeline was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made”.
She both fostered the magic and captured it, beautifully. I have never been one to dream of my wedding day but Evangeline helped us reframe that, and treat the day as the special thing that it is. She picked up on our preferences, our vibe, what we were comfortable with. She put in so much time and effort planning and executing what turned out to be the best day in history. Evangeline was our photographer, our officiant, our elopement coordinator/planner, and our guru. She is truly something special”

“Evangeline was absolutely wonderful to work with!”
My husband and I made a last minute decision to cancel our wedding we had planned at home and fly across the country and by some miracle, Evangeline was available for our day! She was so laid back and we were able to have the day that we had dreamed about having thanks to her! She was up for the 4am hike and overall adventure. We are so happy that we found Evangeline to help us capture our perfect day!
