Noelani is the gold standard in photography. As someone who has in the past struggled with body dysmorphia and feeling, “pretty” having my picture taken can be a bit nerve-racking, but Noelani makes the experience one of pure joy. She captures the true heart and essence of someone to reveal the person’s real heart and demeanor. The final results were nothing short of gorgeous, and I felt very seen, which is a tremendous gift. Cannot even express what a great experience it was beginning to end.

Noelani is a joy to work with. She is very passionate, professional and creative in her approach to photography. We’ve had her do a few photo sessions now, (maternity, newborn and family photos) which all turned out great with high quality, beautiful photos! She made us feel very comfortable, was able to capture those moments that you hope will be captured AND she had great ideas! I could tell she put a lot of thought, energy and effort into the session ahead of time. I highly recommend Noelani!

"I am one of those people who feel like I do not photograph well. Noelani took hundreds of shots– and in every single one of them, I looked and felt gorgeous. I can’t stress how high quality these photos were. And it’s not just me. My husband loved all the shots of us. My family loved the photos of themselves. Everyone at the wedding that day was stunning in the photographs. My biggest regret? That a wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and I can’t have Noelani photograph such an event for me every year."
