:::::::::::::::::::::: about your Maui Photographer ::::::::::::::::::::::::

Aloha!

I am a dreamer and a wanderer. I am in love with love. I'm married to my best friend, Peter. Together we have three amazing kids, Ryenne, Kai, and Cruz - and want to raise them with "Aloha" and kindness in their hearts. They are the air that I breathe - the reason I wake up everyday.

I adore old plantation homes, with wood floors and squeaks and tin roofs that allow me to hear the rain. I am a barefoot kind of gal. I love the beach, the mountains, and the salt air. I'm crazy in love with Maui - my island home and can't wait to share my favorite spots with you.

I love human connection - seeing a moment happen for just a second and then it passes, but remains forever in an image. I think theres an immense sense of poetry in that.

The simple moments, what I call the outtakes of my life - those moments in between the big stuff - THOSE are the important things. The things I strive to capture daily in my own life, and the lives of my amazing clients.

I truly feel that a photography session with me is one of the best activities to do while vacationing on Maui. I want to capture you and your loved ones enjoying this amazing island together to preserve your vacation memories forever.

I have been a professional photographer since 2002 and utilize all professional digital equipment. I have started the GIVINGisAWESOME campaign to benefit various charities on Maui. Please click to the left to learn more.

I would love to create amazing island portraits for you and learn your story!

XOXO,
Mariah



Why is Maui Vacation Photography Important?

An article by No'ena Plauche'

Having Professional Vacation Portraits taken on Maui is one of the most enduring activities you can schedule while on your vacation.

Family Vacation Photography:

If you are a parent, chances are that most of your photos are missing one or the other parent. Only later do you realize that "someone" is missing from every photo because "someone" was behind the lens.

As a parent, I also know how challenging it can be to photograph your own children. The calm and relaxed image you imagined can quickly change into something else entirely as the children become distracted and uncooperative. Let the professional modern photographer, Mariah Milan take the stress away from organizing your family photos on Maui in an entertaining and fun family session.

Picture this: your family is together on a magnificent Maui beach, walking in the sand, feeling the waves lap at your feet as you play and tickle with your happy, giggling children You can relax in the moment knowing that those memories will be captured in priceless images that will last forever. The entire family is together to witness a long, colorful sunset mirrored on the Ocean. And when you go home, you will have those tangible photographs that you can cherish forever by professional Maui photographer, Mariah Milan. Its clear that after your vacation is over, the sandals are put away and the memories of whales breaching begin to fade, the photographs you had taken are what remain. Those photographs are a chronicle of your happy memories to take home with you.

Mariah constantly hears from her clients that scheduling their vacation portrait session was one of the most meaningful activities of their trip to Maui. This makes Mariah one of the most "in demand" photographers on Maui.

Maui Couples Photography:

We have all done it. We have been in an amazing location and no one was available to take our picture. So, we held the camera at arms length to capture ourselves in a special place with the one we love and the photograph turns our far less than spectacular, even though the location begs for an amazing photograph.

While you are on the astoundingly beautiful island of Maui, do yourself a favor and have Mariah Milan capture a Kuuipo Sweetheart session at a beautiful Maui beach. Whether you are celebrating an anniversary, honeymoon, engagement, or a get away, you couldn't choose a more romantic location in the world than the magical island of Maui.

When you are on vacation, let Professional Maui photographer, Mariah Milan capture you and and the one you love walking hand in hand on a white sandy beach while teal waves roll onto the shore. The impossibly blue Maui sky dotted with white cotton clouds compose a magical backdrop for the swaying palm trees dancing on the breeze. If you are lucky you will catch a rainbow, if you are luckier, a double rainbow! More rare than that is a miraculous moonbow. Mariah will photograph you in a modern, directed photo journalistic style with a combination of posed and candid images.

Your photographs of you and your loved one on a breathtaking Maui beach will bring back many amazing memories of your Maui vacation. Maui Professional Photographer, Mariah Milan includes the high resolution image files, also known as digital negatives with her photography packages, so that you are able to make your own prints, use the images for your social network, blog, facebook, email, plus make your own calendars, invitations and other souvenirs.

A photography session with Mariah Milan is an essential part of any vacation on the spectacular island of Maui!

Piece of Mind:

Occasionally it happens - a client has gone home and sent me an email that they went to download their vacation photos to their computer and the memory card corrupted. Or they had saved all the images as a tiny file size to save memory not realizing that they wouldn't be able to make prints when they got home. I

don't wish these things on anyone. But these clients were so happy that they did have high end photography from their portrait session with Mariah Milan while they were on Maui. These images served as their only photographic reminders of their vacation and will be cherished forever.
