Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the most important decisions for me and my husband, as we wanted someone who could truly capture the essence of who we are as a couple. From the very first conversation, we knew we had found the perfect fit with Angie Nelson. Her warm demeanor, unique perspective, and natural style made us confident that she would not only capture beautiful moments but also be a wonderful addition to our wedding day – we were not wrong.

Angie’s presence on our wedding day was both calming and joyful. She blended in seamlessly, capturing candid moments that truly reflect our personalities and the essence of our celebration. Her photos are not just images - they are memories filled with emotion and life (she took Disney-inspired photos of us after realizing we were Disney adults!). We couldn't be happier with the results and would enthusiastically recommend her for any occasion.

Thank you, Angie, for being such an integral part of our wedding day. Your talent and warmth made all the difference, and we are forever grateful for the beautiful memories you've given us.

Wow!!!!…..That was the first thing we thought when we began our quest for a Photographer for our Maui Wedding and Angela was recommended. Once we read her bio and saw her work on her website, we absolutely knew she was the one! Once we began the process with her it just became more and more evident we made the right choice. She constantly provided support, advice and wisdom throughout the months leading up to the wedding, and with each meeting/correspondence we were put more and more at ease, so by the time we arrived in Maui she and us were exactly on the same page. We were lucky enough(in fact she insisted on it) to meet with her a week before the wedding to finalize our vision. And when we met we just didn’t finalize, we fell in love with the person she is….Professional, Passionate And Kind. And those three things shown bright in both our rehearsal dinner session and of course on our wedding day. Angela we feel went above and beyond for us, and if you’re looking for a photographer that will knock it out of the park for you look no farther than Angela Nelson. Even though we just got married, and haven’t received our finished product, we have no doubt that they will be outstanding. All in all, she is truly a wonderful person and a great artist, she helped make our day perfect.

We had the most incredible experience using Angela as our elopement photographer, so much so that I have delayed writing this review, fearful that it would feel like closing the chapter on the best day of my life. My husband and I eloped together in Maui in January of this year, just the two of us. Elopements just like weddings sit on a spectrum and while our vision was unconventional to many, but I felt a connection and knew I trusted her after our initial zoom. She helped to curate an itinerary that felt intentional with some adventure, and thereafter captured every moment perfectly, big and small. She bore the responsibility of not only guiding us through our itinerary, but also was the only other person there start to finish.

She is a professional, a true expert in her craft, and knowledgeable about all things Maui. While those things were important and expected, what I didn’t anticipate is that she felt like friend to me, filling in the gaps of what a loved one would do for a bride: zipping up my dress, smoothing out my back fat, and thereafter repairing the dress 100x once the clasp broke, bringing a tablecloth for our burger lunch date, going out of her way to arrange a surprise my mom inquired about, keeping her own husband on standby for whatever was needed, lending the own hat off of her head to my husband on Haleakala… I could go on and on. She belongs behind a camera, no doubt about it; however at the end of our day and still when I flip through our wedding photos, I feel her friendly, cheerleader presence and selfishly wish she was on the other side of the camera for some of these moments, too.

We received our sneak peaks within a few hours, a blog post with more photos on Valentine’s Day which was the BEST unexpected surprise, and then our gallery within a month which we received over a zoom date. I am so grateful she places so much emphasis on the physical preservation of these memories, which was admittedly an afterthought for me. I fell so in love with our photos, we upgraded our album to include double the pages we initially planned for and added wall art. Through that experience I was able to witness her eye for design, is there anything she can’t do?

I know this review isn’t the end of our relationship with her, I will travel to wherever she is to document our future moments but I am manifesting that our paths cross again on that magical island for a maternity or family shoot that includes Tristan lobster tails from Mamas
