About

When asked about their style, Penny quotes, “We try to push the limits for our clients and that says a lot about our studio and the overall experience our clients have with us. Today’s bride and groom don’t want their parents’ pictures. They want images that are reflective of their personalities and that are unique to them.”

Great photos at a quick turnaround!

10/10 would recommend to anyone to elope in Maui! Throughout our engagement, we really were not looking forward to planning the big "traditional" American wedding that was going to cost us well over $30k! Darci took what we wanted as a couple & made it come to life. The whole process was easy...we booked a trip to Maui & Darci took care of the rest. Marriage license - done; photographer - amazing, officiant - felt like family! It was perfect & exactly what we WANTED! No pressure from family, no timeline -- just us on a "secret" beach in Maui! It was absolutely magical! Thank you Darci, Penny & Robert ... the A+ team!

Another great 40th anniversary ceremony and photo session!

We used Penny Palmer and Darci for our 40th anniversary vow renewal ceremony and family photographs. They took care of all of the details for the ceremony. The event and creative photography were perfect.
We used Penny and Darci for our 30th anniversary and loved our pictures so much that we came back for more!!! They pictures are hanging in our house so we can cherish the memories of that day. my screensaver on my computer is our family picture.
We did the ceremony and photo session at Napili Bay Beach, with the sunset in the background. The sunset was spectacular and stunning.
I highly recommend using Darci and Penny for any anniversary or special event. They make every picture special.
Aloha!!! 🌺🌺🌺

Awesome family and wedding photographer!

Just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Aloha Maui Dream Weddings and Penny Palmer Photography for the amazing vow renewal they organized, executed and photographed for our little family. They were so incredibly fun to work with and gave us the most meaningful ceremony we could have ever asked for, far exceeding our expectations. We couldn’t have asked for more! If you are planning a wedding, renewal or any type of family or event photography, please contact Darci and Penny.

Amazing Photography

Penny and her team did an amazing job photographing our special day. I appreciate that they didn't pose us or our guests; they simply captured the wedding, portraits and reception as we are. They had a knack for capturing all the special moments (like laughs, expressions, or kisses) too. We loved the portraits so much that we splurged and purchased the entire catalog of wedding photos!
