Did you know that we don’t only specialize in proposals? We love photographing your love – whether you’ve already popped the question and need an engagement session, are here for your honeymoon, celebrating an anniversary, or simply want beautiful images of you and your sweetie.

Our goal is to capture a little time capsule of your relationship right now, so when you look back on your pictures, all of those feelings, hopes, dreams, and memories come rushing back to you.

Brandon and Gaby

There are some photos of our past couples that clients send to us over and over again as examples of what they want for their own photo session. We have a feeling that Brandon and Gaby’s engagement session will become one of those examples now.

We knew Brandon and Gaby were going to be so much fun just from reading a bit about them on their inquiry form, and we were definitely right. These cuties were genuinely happy and comfortable with each other. They laughed, danced, and played all over the beach.

Hint: telling us a little about yourselves before your session, preferably on your inquiry form, is a huge boost to ensure your photos will come out to their full potential. If you think about it, your photographer is kind of going on a blind date with you two. Giving them some kind of background info before they meet you, is really helpful in creating a connection that will inspire authentic photos.

Brandon and Gaby: Thank you so much for choosing Engaged on Maui to shoot your classic engagement session in South Maui. You were truly a dream couple!

Gorgeous Northwest Maui Beach Proposal

Dillon wanted beautiful scenery for his proposal to sweetheart Emily. We talked about the pros and cons of a Haleakala proposal versus a beach proposal. In the end, Dillon loved the idea of doing a day of sightseeing followed by a walk on the beach where he could propose before a romantic dinner.

THE PLAN:

Dillon asked for beach recommendations nearby their hotel in Kaanapali and was drawn to the look of this wide-open beach. Our associate Amber would be waiting for them towards the entrance, pretending to be another beachgoer. As they passed by her, she would discreetly get into place to capture the big moment.

THE PROPOSAL:

Originally, we planned to use the left side of the beach. However when Amber arrived, that area was crowded. She quickly texted Dillon that he should go to the right instead and placed their orchid flower circle so he knew exactly where to go.

Amber’s quick thinking ensured that Dillon and Emily’s engagement happened on their own section of beach. Plus, it was a great reminder of why we love using long beaches that have ample space.

Emily was thrilled at Dillon’s beautifully planned beach proposal and was even more surprised that he had a photographer there!

THE ENGAGEMENT SESSION:

At first, it was gorgeous and sunny on the beach. A raincloud came by and the sky got dark. We had a few sprinkles and suddenly an amazing double rainbow appeared. It was the perfect time to head to our second location, where we escaped the rain and ended with a sunset dance along the shoreline.

Dillon and Emily: from sun to showers and rainbows, we had so much fun capturing your engagement! Here’s to a lasting love through any weather!

The Best Places To Propose In Maui

Maui exudes romance! With over 30 miles of beaches and a huge variety of settings to drop to one knee, Maui has you covered. We know that choosing the best location could depend on your personalities, her subtle hinting, your sense of adventure, or sentimental incorporations. That being said, we wanted to gather a list of our favorite proposal locations to help you out! Without further ado. here are some of our all-time favorite best places to propose in Maui:

SOUTH SHORE BEACHES

Conveniently located near many of the best restaurants on the island and offering some of the most romantic sunset views, there are dozens of white sand beaches to choose from in Kihei, Wailea and Makena. Black lava rocks are present at many of these ideal proposal locations. These rocks in particular offer a gorgeous contrast to the blue water and colorful sunsets.

THE TOP OF A VOLCANO

What’s more romantic than a proposal in the clouds? Maui is home to the largest dormant volcano. Haleakala (meaning ‘house of the sun’) features otherworldly beauty and is consistently rated one of the best places to view sunrise or sunset. The drive itself is picturesque but you’ll need warm clothing for this location.

JUNGLE

Hanging vines, lush foliage, and fragrant ginger flowers set a tropical vibe for that once in a lifetime question. Follow up with an engagement photography session at the shoreline. Talk about two incredible settings in one magical West Maui location!

HAIKU MILL

There is a reason this is one of the most coveted wedding venues in the state. The Haiku Mill is over 150 years old, with a breathtaking mix of French-inspired décor, vine-draped ruins, and spectacular flora. A stroll beneath the Mill’s archway is like a trip back in time.

SECLUDED PENINSULA

Get a new perspective on Maui and sweep her off her feet, literally! A helicopter tour is the best way to explore otherwise inaccessible valleys and waterfalls. It is also the best way to reach secluded locations. This way, you can be sure to pop the question without an audience.

CLIFFSIDE

Imagine the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks, the Maui sun setting on the horizon. Just the two of you, perched precariously in the most secluded island chain in the world. The imagery of a cliffside location is one of our very favorites and can easily be combined with a beach proposal or photo session.

FOREST

Not just any forest, take her to a stand of Eucalyptus with bicoastal island views. Nothing on Maui is ordinary! A forest offers privacy and a sense of adventure to start your lifetime together.
