About

Aloha and welcome! I’m a Hawai‘i-based wedding and elopement photographer and the heart behind marcelawaldinger.jpg—a brand born from my passion for photography, videography, and my deep love for love itself. Based in the islands, I specialize in capturing intimate celebrations, adventurous elopements, and heartfelt wedding days surrounded by Hawai‘i’s breathtaking landscapes. Beyond being a photographer and video editor, I’m truly a people-person at heart. I want to get to know you, hear your love story, and create photos and films you’ll cherish for generations to come—whether to show your grandkids or your grand-pets!

My approach is rooted in documentary-style storytelling, focusing on the real, candid moments—the raw emotions, in-between glances, windswept embraces, and beautiful details that make your day uniquely yours. Whether you're exchanging vows barefoot on the beach, celebrating cliffside at sunset, or planning an intimate gathering beneath the palms, my goal is to preserve your day exactly as it felt.

My partner and I also offer combined photo and video packages, ensuring complete synchronicity and eliminating the stress of coordinating separate teams. With a shared passion for storytelling, we work seamlessly together to capture every meaningful moment so you can stay fully present and soak in every second of your celebration.

For me, it’s not just about taking pictures—it’s about creating authentic memories that reflect who you are as a couple and preserving your love story in a way that feels timeless, genuine, and true to you.

Amazing photos and experience!

We hit the jackpot with booking Marcela as our engagement photographer. She is incredibly professional, kind, and the most talented. She provided us with inspiration and guidance for our shoot, helped with styling, and most importantly, made us feel incredibly comfortable and supported during the shoot. The photos are remarkable! We are hoping to book her for our upcoming wedding as well. 10/10!!

Fun and so talented!

I can’t recommend Marcela enough! Not only is she an amazing photographer with a knack for capturing every moment, but she’s also so much fun to work with. From start to finish, she made our day feel relaxed and easy, while still getting the most beautiful shots. She really knows how to make everyone feel comfortable and enjoy the process. If you want someone who’s talented, creative, passionate about her work, and so much fun, Marcela is your go-to!

Amazing Photos!

My husband and I were amazing about how good Marcela’s photos made us look! All the photos looked like they were out of People Magazine! 10/10 would use again (hoping I won’t have to though)

1000/1000 love!

Marcela is such an amazing photographer and I’m so happy that I booked her. She was so professional, punctual, good vibes, and went above and beyond for my photoshoot. I would trust her with any shoot 1000% and can’t wait for the next time I get to work with her :) she really made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. The cherry on top, I love the final photos. Thank you Marcela!! 🥂

Incredible Wedding Photos and the Best Experience

Hiring Marcela for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! From the start, she fit right in with everyone and made us feel completely comfortable, capturing all the special moments without ever feeling intrusive. We didn’t know much about posing, but she made it so easy and fun, guiding us just enough to get the best shots. Plus, she was super quick with editing and delivered our photos way faster than we expected—which turned out gorgeous! Highly recommend her to anyone who wants stunning photos and a photographer who truly cares about capturing your day perfectly.

Great photographer and professional

Not only did Marcela perfectly capture our wedding day, she went above and beyond service expectations. When the boutonniere pin was lost, she ran to her car and quickly gave us a variety of safety pins. She was so attentive and proactive with her services. The pictures perfectly captured all our emotions and best parts of our day. Could not recommend her more!

Amazing experience!

Marcela was such an amazing addition to our wedding team! My spouse and I rarely have any photos together so we were nervous, but were rested assured upon Marcela’s guidance that they would turn out great, and they did! So happy we trusted her with capturing our wedding and we 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, skilled, professional.
