Gorgeous Prewedding & First Look photos at The Olowalu Plantation House
Every fairy tale needs a good beginning, right?! The Wedding photographer captures the love story of your special day as it unfolds, the carefully planned details and behind the scenes transformations. The Pre-ceremony photos are such a special time, the final touches, bridal party shenanigans and of course the first glimpse of the bride in her wedding gown!
In addition to the separate pre- ceremony photos, the “First Look” session has become a very popular trend in weddings. The first look is a special moment, documented, between the bride & groom to see each other privately before the big event. These are some of my personal favorite photos, they are always so sweet and touching! The first look photos give the couple an opportunity to have a little quiet time away from the attention & distraction, to just “be” in the moment.
All of our newlyweds that have done the pre- ceremony & first look photos agree, that it helped calm their nerves and gave them more time to enjoy their family and friends at the cocktail hour.
As a wedding planner on Maui for over 18 years, I highly recommend to my clients to choose a time line that allows for a few pre- ceremony photos, first look, bridal party portraits & possibly even a few immediate family photos before the ceremony. Your wedding day goes by in the blink of an eye and you “don’t want to miss a thing”! I encourage couples to do some of the “must have” photos before, so they don’t feel rushed after the ceremony and are actually able to enjoy the fabulous day they planned!
