Sierra + Ryan // Andaz Maui Wedding Photographer
Colorful Andaz Maui Wedding
Ryan and Sierra have waited far too long for this moment to happen!
Plans all started with a gorgeous wedding being planned at a winery in Washington, but due to Covid we were forced to postpone. After months of grieving the loss of their first wedding plans, Ryan and Sierra contacted me about potentially moving the wedding to Ravello, Italy instead! I was absolutely on board with this plan, because Italy is one of my favorite places and I was ironically already planning to be there for another wedding!
Low and behold, things did not let up like we had hoped, and the dreams of the Italian elopement was beginning to slip away. While it was not easy to have to start all over again planning a third wedding, R & S were ready to be married. So that’s what began the plans for a Maui elopement! Maui reopened to visitors in October and has slowly been allowing events to happen again. While there are still heavy restrictions and precautions being taken, a small gathering outdoors was allowed for their April wedding.
R & S love to have fun! When I look through their sneak peek album, I can still hear the joy and laughter- especially when they ran into the ocean in their wedding attire. These images bring me so much joy, especially after having to take a year long hiatus. It feels so great to be back and doing what I love again, and I am so honored and excited that R & S were my first official wedding back.
Cheers to a life of love and laughter you two!
XOXO
