I didn’t even know where to begin! Choosing to work with Vic was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our engagement. Since my partner and I don’t really use social media, we’re not exactly selfie pros—in fact, we’re pretty awkward in front of the camera. That’s why we knew we needed a professional to capture this special moment, and let me tell you, Vic was amazing. As someone who had no clue how to pose, I was so grateful for her expert guidance. She made the entire experience feel effortless, and our photos turned out absolutely stunning—timeless, elegant, and so full of emotion. I never imagined I’d actually enjoy taking photos, but Vic made it such a fun and memorable experience! Beyond her incredible skills behind the camera, she was also a fantastic adviser when it came to choosing locations, and her warm, friendly personality made us feel completely at ease. We loved her so much, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. Writing this review is making me emotional because I’m just so grateful that she was our photographer. Thank you, Vic!!

Katelyn Servedio Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Waimanalo, HI
  • Offer

My name is Katelyn, I’m 26, and I’m based out of the Portland, Oregon area! I am beautifully, unapologetically, and loudly queer, and my pronouns are she/her. On any given day, you can find me meditating and reading by the water somewhere. I’m deeply into all things spiritual—moon phases, energy work, astrology, you name it—and I try to bring that sense of intention and magic into everything I do. Photography has been my outlet, my healing space and my rebellion for as long as i can remember. But I am inspired by all forms of art. I write poetry, I paint, I make pottery. I love making playlists.

t me start off with saying I inquired with Katelyn before I even secured my wedding venue because I HAD to have her capture my wedding day. She was the first vendor I booked. She immediately felt like a friend, and once my day arrived and we finally met, I felt like I’ve known her forever. I fell in love with her photos and her artistic eye and I anxiously awaited my wedding day because I knew she was going to capture it better than I could imagine. You can feel the emotions just by looking at each photo, as if they’re telling you the story right out of a book. When it came to my wedding day she kept asking the vibe, the mood, what I did like, what I didn’t like for photos, but I didn’t want to give any direction because I knew I could fully trust her and her vision. No matter what is in front of her lens, she’s going to capture it in the most creative and beautiful way possible. My wedding was just a few days ago and she already had a handful of photos ready and edited so exquisitely that it made me, my husband, my family and my friends tear up all over again, just like we were there reliving the moment over again. I never doubted or questioned for a moment that anything would be missed or not photographed to tell the whole story because if you so much just look at her instagram, you know that she puts all her passion into every single one of her photos. She wants to show the world your love story thru each photo and make sure that when you look back on them that each one is a small glimpse into the emotions and all the love that filled the air that day. I will recommend Katelyn, Yara and her team to any and everyone for the rest of my life. My special day was beyond perfect and I am so grateful that Katelyn and her team were apart of it. I will cherish my day, our friendship and my photos for the rest of my life. We love you Katelyn!! Love, Jordan & Seth

Every couple wants to feel seen and they absolutely made us feel that way. They asked questions about our relationship and that showed in the shots they chose. The photos reflect our humor and tenderness, not just pretty faces. The video includes a montage of candid laughter that always makes me laugh again. The team was so patient with the kids and older guests, which kept everyone feeling comfortable. They delivered a cinematic trailer that we shared with friends who couldn’t attend and it was a hit. The gallery interface made gifting images to relatives simple. I loved the balance of posed couple shots and documentary-style candids. They also suggested a few creative locations at the venue that made for stunning backdrops. Very grateful for their attentive approach.

I originally found Masha through Zola and was impressed by her editorial style photos. I am so happy that Masha was available to photograph our wedding. She made me feel so comfortable and so gorgeous all day. My husband was nervous about being in front of the camera but she helped guide our posing and he looks very natural in the end result! Photography is a large part of the wedding day and I'm grateful I spent that time with Masha. I am picky about photos since my dad is very passionate about photography, especially film photography. The photos (both digital and the film ones) turned out absolutely incredible. She took both traditional wedding portraits as well as some very dreamy gorgeous editorial-like photos. It's hard to convey how happy I am about the experience. I'm already dreaming about another vow renewal so I can book Masha again!

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly don't even know where to begin. In less than two weeks Charina and her incredible team pulled together an absolutely breathtaking wedding, something I didn't think was possible. What could have been overwhelming and stressful turned into a calm, seamless and dreamy experience because of her and her team. From the beginning, Charina stepped in with grace, professionalism, and unmatched attention to detail. She listened to every detail and executed it. On the wedding day everything flowed so smoothly. We had no cares in the world. Her team was just so exceptional, organized, kind, responsive, and clearly passionate about what they do. You could feel how much heart they poured into making our day perfect. Izumi did my hair and makeup. I truly cannot recommend her enough. I sent her just a few inspiration photos of what i wanted and she brought every single detail to life flawlessly. I don't know how to do my own hair and makeup at all and she made absolute magic happen. She made me feel so comfortable, confident and beautiful, exceeding anything I could have imagined. June, the day of coordinator at the beach, took care of everything from the moment we arrived at the beach. She was calm, organized and completely on top of every detail. Knowing June was there allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the ceremony without worrying about a single thing. I also asked for the impossible. I asked for Plumeria flowers for my bouquet. And red plumeria flowers for our leis. June literally climbed trees for me to make this happen. Chihiro was our photographer. The photos are absolutely amazing. She captured every special moment so beautifully and naturally, allowing us to relive the day through her work. The images are stunning. The wedding was just the two of us, so we were relying on the photos to tell our story of the day, and she captured it so perfectly. Leilani was our officiant, and she was truly amazing. From the very beginning, it was clear how deeply she cared. She brought so much warmth, sincerity and heart to every word making our ceremony feel meaningful, special ,and perfect.

Hi, I’m Megan—a film photographer based on Oʻahu and in Colorado, traveling worldwide. I’m passionate about preserving the magic of weddings through the timeless beauty of analog photography. My work is rooted in honest, artful moments—candid, unscripted, and full of feeling. I love the texture, warmth, and intention that film brings, and I’d be honored to document your day with images that feel both timeless and true.

Megan flew from Oahu to the Big Island to shoot our wedding in Kona back in January and I have only good things to say about her. She was so sweet and easy to work with through the whole process. We met with her on a call before the wedding to discuss our vision and she was able to help me narrow down our packed shot list and schedule for the day. Of course things don't go as planned the day of and she was flexible when we had a few changes during get ready photos. My husband has captured many of our moments on film so it was important to us that we found a photographer who shot film for our wedding photos. Megan did offer to shoot a mix of film and digital but we both agreed that the feel of film was what we were looking for. Megan took such amazing care to capture all the big and little moments from our day. Within a couple weeks Megan delivered over 500 images to us in a digital photo album for us to download. We are overjoyed to have these beautiful images to look back onto for the rest of our lives.

When my Maid of Honors or coordinator were not around, she held on to my blotting sheets and lip gloss, made sure I was good, it was great!

She not only meets the needs of her clients, but by far exceeds your expectations!! We eloped last minute and she was able to arrange a time with me to be able to capture our special day, which I will always be grateful for.

Meet Hiep, the heart and soul behind the lens at Smile n Kiss. With over a decade of calling Hawaii home, he's crafted a special talent for freezing magical, love-filled moments in time. His keen eye for detail and knack for making clients feel right at home make him the perfect choice to capture the essence of your wedding day.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Smile N Kiss for our Hawaii wedding, and the experience was fantastic. The photos are breathtaking, capturing every special moment with a natural, photojournalistic style that we adore. Hiep was wonderfully unobtrusive, seamlessly blending in and allowing the day to unfold naturally. Their professionalism and eye for detail were evident in every shot. We couldn’t be happier with the stunning memories Smile N Kiss Photography created for us. Highly recommend!

Our clients are individuals who are fascinating in many ways. Their love stories bring us laughter and move us to tears. They are living proof that love is still a thing in these crazy times. Here at Alvea Studios, we won't provide you with just photographs, but with tiny memories capsules. We will make sure that you are happy with the results not only after the shoot, but for many years to come.

We hired Alvea Studios to take our first maternity photo shoot back in 2019, both my husband and I were expecting our first baby! We got to choose the location to have our shoot and both Abbie and Harold made both my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable. We are ones to not take pictures but I knew this was a milestone in our life we wanted to remember, I left having fun and it was the utmost positive experience we’ve ever experienced! Both were 100% professional, accommodating and captured every moment. After seeing the final product of pictures we were incredibly happy as it came out perfect! Something for my son to see when he gets older. They both were so awesome we also ended up hiring them to do my engagement photos in the summer of 2019 as well after my son was born! They even made a wedding teaser video for me, which came out awesome! Harold and Abbie have a gifted talent, to capture a moment in time with their photography I’ve never seen before with past professional family photos taken when I was a child. In the end I hired them for my wedding, my second maternity shoot back in 2021 and the last two years for our holiday Christmas cards. Consider them for any event you may have, both again are extremely professional and great at what they do!

Hi there! My name is Alexandra but I go by Alex. I have a lot of energy and I'm a go-getter. I love capturing and preserving memories, I love helping people to smile and enjoy themselves, and I love meeting new people. Being in front of a camera is not easy but my job is to make it as painless and normal as possible and hopefully you will pay more attention to where we are and who you are with than what we are doing. My goal is to work with my clients time and time again, to document the different stages of their life- so hopefully this isn't a one time deal because I'm here for the long haul if you want me!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Alex for our wedding. From start to finish, she was professional, attentive, and a joy to work with. She captured our day beautifully. The photos are absolutely stunning and they truly tell the story of our day. We’ll cherish them for years to come. She is an incredibly talented photographer! Not only is her work fantastic, but her friendly personality made us feel at ease on such an intense day! We can’t recommend Alex enough. Her eye for detail and ability to capture genuine emotion is something really special. Thank you again for giving us memories we will always cherish!

We are a brother-sister photography team focused on creating stress free and fun photoshoots and delivering wall worthy portraits! We were born in Chile and were raised in Japan and now live in beautiful Oahu, Hawaii.

My husband and I worked with Enzo, who did an incredible job! He made us feel at ease and made the process feel very natural. He scoped out all the spots beforehand and was able to be flexible when our original shoot date was taken over by an insane tropical storm. We could not have been happier with our experience and our photos! Thank you Toto&Meme!
