Photographing a beach wedding at 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay

1 Hotel Hanalei Bay sits in Princeville on Kauai’s North Shore, facing Hanalei Bay and the misty green mountains behind it. For this wedding, the ceremony took place on Pu’u Poa Beach, right in front of the hotel, beneath a spreading beach tree with a circle of white flowers and greenery set into the sand.

With 20 guests, the day felt close and personal. I photographed the bride getting ready in her room at the hotel, then portraits with her bridesmaids in sage green on the hotel grounds, before everyone walked down to the beach for the ceremony. There were handwritten vows, a lei exchange and the ring exchange, and afterward we walked the sand for portraits with the mountains rising out of the mist behind the couple.
