Hawaii's Sunset Coast

Kona Wedding Photographer

Elopements, sunset ceremonies, and estate weddings on the coast where we watch the sun go down every single night.

Home / Big Island / Kona

Kona is home. This coast is where we buy groceries, dodge Ironman traffic, and stand on the seawall at dusk with everyone else in town. Getting married here means getting a photo team that navigates Kona like locals — because we are.

Kona sits on the island's dry leeward side, which means one wonderful thing for weddings: sunsets you can count on. While other Hawaiian coasts gamble with evening clouds, the Kona side delivers clear, glowing golden hours with remarkable consistency, nearly year-round.

Local knowledge, zero travel fees

We're based right here on the Kona side, so travel anywhere on the island is included in every collection — and short-notice dates are rarely a problem for a team that's already home. Sunrise session? We'll bring the coffee.

Kona wedding FAQ

What does a Kona elopement cost?

Elopement coverage starts at $3,900, including a sunset portrait session, location scouting, permit guidance, and travel anywhere on the Big Island. Full details on our collections page.

Do we need a permit to get married on a Kona beach?

Ceremonies on state beaches generally require a simple right-of-entry permit. Your planner or officiant usually handles this, and we're glad to point you to the current process and the sites where permits are easiest.

What's the best month for a Kona wedding?

Kona is one of the most weather-reliable places in Hawaii, so nearly any month works. September and October bring warm water and quieter crowds; winter offers whales on the horizon during portraits.
