About

Maui Wedding Photographer & Highlight Reel Creator

Most couples visiting Maui want the same thing — photos that actually feel like them. Not stiff. Not staged. Just real.

The problem is a lot of photography feels like a photoshoot. Awkward directions, forced smiles, and images that look beautiful but don't feel like the moment actually happened.

That's exactly what I don't do.

 

I'm Mark Tablang, a Maui wedding photographer and couples photographer specializing in candid storytelling photography and short social media highlight reels. My job is to stay out of the way, let real moments happen, and capture them honestly.

Over 90% of the images I deliver are completely candid.

 

 

Candid Maui Photography That Actually Feels Like You

I work with couples planning Maui weddings, elopements, engagement sessions, proposals, and couples sessions across the island.

Instead of directing every move, I guide you into relaxed, natural interactions — so what gets captured is real connection, not a performance.

The result is photography that feels genuine, emotional, and timeless.

This approach works especially well for Maui weddings, Maui elopements, Maui engagement sessions, Maui couples photography, and proposal photography in Maui.

 

 

Photography + Short Highlight Reel — A Modern Maui Experience

Most couples today want more than just photos. They want something they can actually share.

That's why many couples add a short highlight reel to their session. It's a 15 to 30 second vertical video clip, set to trending audio, edited for Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

No film crew. No recorded voices. No long production. Just a cinematic, shareable moment from your day.

You walk away with beautiful professional photos and a reel your friends and family will actually watch.

It's the easiest way to bring your Maui experience to life on social media.

 

 

How I Became a Hawaii Photographer

My photography journey didn't start at a wedding. It started at my CrossFit gym in Maui.

I brought my camera to capture workouts and community moments — and realized quickly that I loved documenting real life as it happened. That eventually grew into photographing couples, engagements, and weddings across Maui and Hawaii.

What started as a hobby became a craft I care deeply about. Today I focus on photography that reflects how the moment actually felt — not just how it looked.

 

 

A Relaxed Maui Photography Experience — Start to Finish

Planning photos while visiting Maui should be the easy part of your trip.

I help couples choose the best beach locations in Maui, time sessions around golden hour sunset light, guide natural movement without stiff posing, and create a comfortable experience so real moments happen on their own.

You show up. Enjoy the moment. I'll take care of everything else.
