If you’re looking for a Maui photographer who captures real moments — not stiff poses — you’re in the right place.
I’m Mark Tablang, a Maui wedding photographer and couples photographer specializing in candid storytelling photography and short highlight reels that capture the emotion, movement, and atmosphere of your day.
My approach is simple:
let moments happen naturally and capture them honestly.
No awkward posing.
No overly staged moments.
Just real connection, beautiful light, and the experience of being in Maui.
Most of the couples I work with tell me the same thing:
“We want our photos to feel natural and relaxed.”
That’s exactly how I work.
Over 90% of the images I deliver are candid moments.
Instead of directing every move, I guide couples in a relaxed way so real expressions and interactions happen naturally.
This style works especially well for:
• Maui weddings
• Maui elopements
• couples sessions in Maui
• engagement sessions in Maui
• proposal photography in Maui
The result is photography that feels genuine, emotional, and timeless.
In addition to photography, many couples also add a short highlight reel from their session or wedding day.
These are 10–30 second vertical video clips captured during your session and edited into a simple highlight reel you can easily share with friends and family.
Think of it as a way to capture the movement and atmosphere of the moment, not a long cinematic film.
Couples love this because they get:
• beautiful professional photos
• a short highlight reel for Instagram or social media
• authentic moments captured naturally
• everything documented without a large production crew
It’s a modern way to preserve your Maui experience.
My photography journey started in an unexpected place — my CrossFit gym.
I began bringing my camera to capture workouts, events, and the community around me. Over time, I realized I loved documenting real moments as they unfolded.
That passion eventually grew into photographing couples, engagements, and weddings here in Maui.
What started as a hobby quickly became a craft I care deeply about.
Today, I focus on creating natural, honest photography that reflects the feeling of the day, not just how it looked.
Planning photos while visiting Maui should feel easy.
Whether you're planning a Maui wedding, elopement, engagement, or couples session, my goal is to keep the experience relaxed and enjoyable.
I help with:
• choosing the best beach locations in Maui
• timing sessions around the best sunset light
• guiding natural movement instead of stiff poses
• creating a comfortable environment so real moments happen
You show up, enjoy the moment, and I’ll take care of capturing it.
I regularly photograph:
• Maui weddings
• Maui elopements
• Maui engagement sessions
• Maui couples photography
• Maui proposal photography
• sunset beach photography sessions in Maui
If you’re planning any of these experiences on the island, I’d love to help document it in a way that feels authentic and relaxed.
If you're planning a Maui wedding, elopement, proposal, or couples session, reach out and tell me about your plans.
I’m happy to help you choose the best beach location, timing, and approach to create photos that feel natural and true to your experience.
