BASED IN OAHU, HAWAII
I'm Tay
TRAVELING WORLDWIDE
...Photography is not only a creative outlet for me, but also a way to deepen my connection with the planet and other humans. This space is where all of my passions meet and I hope will resonate with you on a meaningful and impactful level. I strive to serve my couples in many different avenues and those who step into this space simply to connect with me or who have shared passions. I love love, because relationships embody a vast array of emotions- not just the happy ones. I find that poetic and soulful, as an artist.
This is why I love love
MY WHY
WHEN I'M NOT WORKING...
OUR LOVE
You can find me adventuring with Cobian, most likely in the ocean, on our boat, hiking in the mountains, camping, hanging out on the beach, harvesting from my garden, or cuddling and playing with our cats.

MY WHY
WHEN I'M NOT WORKING...
OUR LOVE
Through friends on a beach and a few days later, Cobian asked me to hang out. So we hung out a couple of days later and were inseparable. We dated for two years, had a 5 month engagement and had the most amazing wedding. I was so scared to have a big wedding but it was better than I could have ever imagined.
We met...
We hope to be able to grow our family some day soon. We have not had an easy time in that department, but pray one day, we will be blessed with a beautiful baby. We would love to develop a tiny house on a piece of land where we can have a big garden and I can home school and raise our babies here in our home town on the north shore of Oahu.
Our dreams...

The Ocean & Me
Me and the ocean? We go way back. I always find myself grasping for words to portray the way she brings me to a level of presence I can't experience in any other way, the way that no matter how much time I spend with her, there is still so much left to discover. Yet, she always feels like home.
Every wedding & elopement booked comes with a coral adoption with the Coral Gardeners

Conservation is incredibly important to me. We spend time doing reef and beach clean ups, 95% of the fish we eat is what we catch or spearfish ourselves, and we do what we can to raise awareness where ever possible.

"Heyy! So just looked through our pictures! I’m honestly upset...because now I wanna bring you with us on all vacations to do shoots. THEY ARE SOOOOOO FREAKING AWESOME. I know you hear this a lot but somehow they capture us, our relationship, our personalities soooo perfectly. Like every single part of us. I thought they were going to be just beautiful pictures but they are so much more than that. We absolutely love them. You are so talented!! I can’t tell you which is my favorite because I have too many lol. We had such a fun time taking them and we are so glad we picked you to capture it."
