On Maui’s lush north shore, the Ohia Package brings island wedding photography into sharp, cinematic focus. Based in Haiku-Pauwela, Hawaii, Clarissa and her assistant guide couples through the coastlines, gardens, and forest edges that define east Maui, delivering four hours of unlimited digital photography, professional editing, and full reproduction rights. Meeting point: Varies on chosen location. This session is built for couples who want authentic light and place—rocky lava outcrops that tumble into turquoise surf, stands of native ʻōhiʻa trees dusted with red lehua blooms, and the palm-stitched ridgelines that frame Haleakalā on clear days. Clarissa balances posed portraiture with candid storytelling: ceremony shots, family portraits, and bridal-party dynamics are all covered, while a romantic couple session lets two photographers capture both wide environmental frames and intimate close-ups. Practical details are simple but essential. The package includes four hours of coverage and two hours of a second photographer, plus an online gallery and app with the fully edited, high-resolution image set ready to download. Add-ons like albums and an extra second shooter are available on request. Because locations vary from beach edges to sheltered gardens and mountain overlooks, expect short walks, varied light, and microclimates that can shift from sun to breeze within minutes—bring layers and reef-safe sunscreen. What makes this offering stand out in Maui is its local sensitivity and visual range. Clarissa knows how to time shots for golden hour along surf-scoured sea cliffs and pull color from humid rainforest canopies without flattening skin tones. The package foregrounds Haiku-Pauwela’s wild contrasts: basalt benches formed by ancient lava flows, lowland coastal scrub, and pockets of introduced garden species that photograph like stage sets. Couples who want a gallery that reads like travel photography and intimate narrative will find this approach compelling. Visitors should budget time for travel across island roads; Haiku-Pauwela sits a short drive from Paia and Kahului’s airport, and traffic to popular overlooks can add minutes in high season. Clarissa’s team handles editing and retouching, so clients receive a curated, high-resolution sequence that covers getting-ready moments, ceremony, family portraits, reception highlights if desired, and a romantic bride-and-groom session. For couples marrying on Maui who want place-driven imagery with professional polish, the Ohia Package is an efficient, location-savvy choice that turns island landscapes into lasting keepsakes. After the shoot Clarissa provides a polished gallery and timeline for delivery; typical turnaround is several weeks depending on season and editing load, and clients can request expedited delivery for an additional fee. Couples often use the full-resolution files for announcements, prints, and albums; print-ready color profiles are available on request. Small-group elopements and intimate gatherings adapt well to the four-hour rhythm, making the Ohia Package a practical choice for place-focused weddings.
