Your Wedding, Your Way—Intentional, Authentic, and Unforgettable
Your wedding day should be spent in one of your favorite places, surrounded by the people you love, and creating a lifetime of memories.
An intentional wedding, whether it’s an adventure elopement or an intimate wedding, is about more than just the details—it’s about the moments you share, the laughter you create, and the bond you build. It’s about choosing a celebration that speaks to your love for each other and your love for adventure.
Imagine exchanging vows in Hawaii, a place that’s as wild, free, and unique as your love—whether it’s on a mountaintop, by the ocean, or somewhere deep in the wilderness. Together, we’ll create an intentional, intimate experience that reflects the depth of your relationship and the joy of your journey together.
Just tell me what excites you and I'll be there to help create the vision you're dreaming of.

"Marcus and his wife Hannah are absolutely amazing!!! They are so personable and will capture your most precious moments with perfection! Marcus’s photography stands out to me because of the jaw dropping views he’s able to portray while still highlighting you as the focal point. I’ve never seen someone balance those two things as good as him! Everyone was in absolute awe at how breathtaking our photos were. Hannah has such a creative and imaginative mind when it comes to film! She has a natural talent for seeing what could make a beautiful moment and capturing it in video! I recommend booking Marcus and Hannah together to get the full photo/video experience!"
"I really could go on and on about how amazing my experience was!"

"Marcus was AMAZING! Every detail was simply perfect. He covered everything we wanted and then some including our adventure shoot in Glacier! He’s timely with responses and gallery delivery! Our pictures turned out way better than we could have dreamed. His landscape background in photography was perfect for us getting married in the mountains. His love for photography truly shows while he’s capturing your day! Even my family raved about him on wedding day (: If you’re looking for a photographer near or far; we highly recommend Marcus!"

Tips for eloping in hawaii
1. plan ahead for the best experience
2. Sunrise and sunset are best
3. fall through spring are best
4. Work with an expert
Hawaii is a very popular destination and has become more popular for elopements. I recommend planning everything at least 6 months in advance to get the best accommodations and wedding permits. Book Airbnbs for your elopement in Hawaii that are close to the locations we're exploring.
Hawaii is known for its crowds. People travel all over the world to see Hawaii's beauty. I recommend having a sunrise or sunset ceremony to help avoid crowds and get the most beautiful light. We can explore the rest of the day then celebrating!
Hawaii is very beautiful year round. I recommend eloping in Hawaii anytime from October through May. The weather is perfect year round and everything stays green. However late fall through early spring is their off season so it will help us avoid the crowds and still have beautiful warm weather.
With Hawaii being so popular, I can't recommend working with an expert elopement photographer, like me, who knows the area. I can even bring you to breathtaking locations without the crowds along with some other famous spots. You can count on me to be your trusted guide!
