We found Kristen Campbell Photography on Zola and absolutely fell in love! We reached out to Kristen before we even found a wedding planner or chose a date. From the very first interaction, she exceeded our expectations. During our initial consultation, Kristen made us feel so at peace with the decision to hire her to capture our wedding day. She was incredibly transparent about the details and pricing, and the contract process was simple and stress-free! Every vendor we connected with was SO excited when they found out Kristen was capturing our day, and each of them shared how much they loved working with her. Throughout the planning process, Kristen checked in with us regularly, always professional and genuinely excited for our big day. By the time the wedding week arrived, we couldn’t wait to finally meet her in person. Kristen photographed our welcome party and her warm and friendly personality immediately put us at ease. My husband had never taken professional photos before, but she made him feel so confident and guided both of us with clear, easy instructions. She captured our welcome party beautifully and was so gracious and lovely throughout the evening. After that experience, we were even more excited for the wedding day. On our wedding day, Kristen absolutely blew us away. She was timely, organized, and brought so much joy and positivity to the day. Beforehand, she talked through lighting and timing with us, providing recommendations for the best photo locations and schedule. We trusted her completely and were so glad we did—her instincts were spot on! Wedding photos can take time, but Kristen made the process genuinely FUN. Couples' photos, in particular, were one of our favorite parts of the day because of how relaxed and enjoyable she made it. Family and wedding party photos were equally seamless thanks to Kristen’s thorough preparation and attention to detail—she made sure everything was perfectly organized ahead of time. Our family, friends, and wedding party couldn’t stop raving about Kristen. Her positivity and professionalism left such a lasting impression on everyone. She truly brought so much joy to our day, and we are so incredibly grateful for that. While on our honeymoon, we received our sneak peek photos, and WOW—talk about a highlight of the trip! We couldn’t stop looking through them in our hotel room. Kristen delivered so many sneak peeks, and every single one was absolutely stunning. From couples' portraits to candids, family shots, wedding party photos, and intricate details—each image took our breath away. Kristen captured every moment so beautifully, and we’re thrilled with how perfectly she documented the love and joy of our day. The lighting and style of her photography were flawless, but even more than that, we love how genuine each moment feels in her work. Kristen, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We feel so incredibly lucky to have worked with you, and we will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. Your work is a priceless gift, and we cannot recommend you highly enough!

Kylene Morgan Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Waipahu, HI

I'm Kylene and I am a cinematic and storytelling wedding and elopement photographer based on Oahu Hawaii and serving all Hawaiian islands. I am devoted to capturing the authentic, raw moments that make your story unique. With a storytelling and documentary-style approach, I focus on the honest emotions and intimate connections that unfold naturally throughout your day, capturing your story with sincerity. My goal is to capture not just the beautiful moments, but the genuine emotions and the spirit of your celebration.

Kylene Chapman is nothing short of exceptional, and we are so grateful to have had her as our wedding photographer. From our engagement session to my boudoir photoshoot and, of course, the wedding itself, Kylene was more than just a photographer—she became a trusted friend and a key part of our big day. One of the things that sets Kylene apart is her documentary-style approach to photography. She doesn’t just take pictures; she tells a story. She captured so many special moments I didn’t even realize were happening—small, candid moments of laughter, tears, and joy that truly reflect the emotions we were feeling. Looking back through our photos, it's amazing how she was able to freeze these intimate moments in time, making them feel so genuine and real. Kylene’s ability to make us feel at ease in front of the camera was a game changer. From the very first time we worked together during our engagement session, she had this natural way of bringing out the best in us. We felt comfortable, relaxed, and even playful, which made all of our photos look authentic and full of love. Her energy and encouragement were contagious, and she was truly our personal hype girl throughout the entire process. What really stood out was Kylene’s thoughtfulness and dedication to her craft. Not only did she travel all the way from her home in Hawaii to Dahlonega, Georgia, to capture our wedding, but she also went above and beyond in every way. Within just two days of our wedding, she sent us over 100 sneak peek photos, which was such a wonderful surprise and made the wait for the full gallery even more exciting! On the wedding day itself, Kylene was incredibly organized, flexible, and professional, seamlessly guiding us through our timeline while also being there when we needed an extra hand or just a moment to breathe. She was always in the right place at the right time, capturing both the big moments and the quiet ones in a way that felt natural and unobtrusive. We never felt rushed or stressed, which made the entire day so much more enjoyable. Kylene is a true artist, and her photography isn’t just about capturing pictures—it’s about telling a story. Her work is emotional, authentic, and breathtaking. We could not be more thankful for the beautiful memories she has given us. If you’re looking for a photographer who will capture the real, raw moments of your wedding day with incredible talent and heart, look no further. Book with Kylene NEEEOWWWW!!!! Also, her website, the guidebooks she sends to clients, and everything she touches is evidence of the professionalism and craftsmanship that she puts into her work. Just take a look around her website for 5 minutes, by seeing how much time you THINK went into that website, think about how much time she puts into each of her clients.

Award-winning Hawaii wedding photographer captures editorial imagery for the discerning couples appreciating a vibrant and unexpected take on wedding photography. Through artful compositions and thoughtful storytelling, I am to capture not just how your celebration looked, but how it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

I’m Grace Troutman. I’m a wedding & elopement photographer who loves to frequent the West Coast, Hawaii, and the Midwest (where I grew up.) I approach working with my couples on their weddings from a place of trust and compassion, so I can document the day how it is true to them. No forced moments, no stiff posing, only true to life candid imagery. I’ve shot all over the world from Iceland, Ireland, & France to all over the Midwest, all the way to California and Hawaii, and I believe that you should say “I do,” in a place that makes you feel like home.

Grace is pure MAGIC! We had the absolute pleasure of working with Grace for our engagement photos and our wedding day - She came highly recommended from trusted friends and when you see her work, it's easy to understand why! Grace is attentive, warm, inviting. She truly makes you feel 100% comfortable being in front of the camera which is not a small feat. By far the best investment we made throughout our entire wedding process was the decision to work with Grace and her team. We now have the most incredible photos that will last a lifetime and we could not thank Grace enough!

Working with Mar was the absolute best! My husband and I are not the most affectionate, but when we received our pictures, we love them so much. She captured our love and our story perfectly. During my getting ready pictures, she made me comfortable and beautiful. I never felt any awkward times and she made every moment a good time. She caught the most fun pictures of my husband and I, along with our wedding party. 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 was more than our photographer that day and we absolutely appreciated it, and loved it. It was a quick turnover and such quality work; we would recommend her to anyone!!
