We have compiled a list of our favorite shutterbugs that would love to capture your cherished moments while vacationing in Maui!
Wailea Photography
Jonelle Littleton of Wailea Photography specializes in weddings, family photos, maternity, and engagement photos. She started her company in 2010 after training under another local photographer and she is extremely passionate about her work.
Putting her whole heart into her craft, Jonelle’s style allows you to see the beauty of Maui while still getting artistic portraits. Jonelle told Exotic Estates, “Lighting wise, this is a difficult technique to master and it is by far easier to have one without the other- which I believe sets me apart.”
Worried about getting that great photo of the youngsters? Jonelle can help you with that! “I am very animated and outgoing with children (I am a mother of a 6 year old girl). I make a complete fool of myself for candid laughter. I have a lot of return clients that I like to think of as friends!”
Jonelle is happy to offer clients of Exotic Estates a discount of 10%!

Mariah Milan Photography
Mariah Milan Photography offers elegant and sophisticated images with the soul of the islands!
Mariah Milan has been in business since 2002 and Mariah has found that more and more families and couples are looking to freeze that happy moment in time when they're visiting Maui (or other island destinations).
Mariah told Exotic Estates, “Many couples and families are looking for an experience - that is, moments of pure joy in a place that they love and not necessarily posed formals on the beach. I have had the pleasure of photographing families at vacation homes, beaches, and off the beaten path trails and cliffs.”
Capturing those perfect moments isn’t always easy, but Mariah has perfected her craft over the last 14 years and even gives back to her native Island.
She tells us, “As a mom and photographer that is from Maui, works here, lives here, I feel the pull of KOKUA - a responsibility of helping others on the island. For every session and wedding I photograph, I donate to a Maui charity or privately funded medical campaign. That way, visitors to the island know that they're leaving more than just footprints in the sand; they are contributing to a greater good on our island.”
Capture your most cherished moments on the beautiful island of Maui. You will never forget your escape to paradise with the help of a professional photographer or cinematographer!
