    Exceptional Experience with Jill and Gordon at Meew Meew Studios – 10/10 Would Recommend!

    Exceptional Experience with Jill and Gordon at Meew Meew Studios – 10/10 Would Recommend!
    From the moment Jill and Gordon walked into the room I knew we were in good hands with Meew Meew Studios, but I had no idea just how incredible our experience would be. Choosing them as our wedding photographers was undoubtedly one of the best decisions we made for our special day.

    Jill and Gordon are not only supremely talented photographers but also the sweetest and most thoughtful people you could hope to work with. They have an uncanny ability to make everyone feel comfortable and at ease, which really shows in the photos. It almost felt like I had known Jill for years! She made me feel so comfortable and gave direction to me and my husband throughout the whole day. I’ll never forget Gordon yelling out “pocket!” - having to remind my husband what to do with his hand. We had many moments of laughter together. They blended in seamlessly capturing every moment with finesse and a unique artistic touch. One very important HUGE value add - Jill and Gordon’s energy. So calming. Absolutely zen. Any moment that I felt some nerves starting she was right there with me. They were helpful beyond just the photography. They helped keep us on schedule, they helped carry things (even a sweat towel), and they articulated their vision in a way that made it easy for us to be in front of the camera.

    The images we received were nothing short of breathtaking. Each photo tells a story, filled with emotion and beauty, capturing the essence of our day perfectly. These aren’t just photos; they are priceless memories crafted with care and expertise. The quality, colors, angles, lighting—everything about them is flawless. We’ve received so many compliments from friends and family who were just as amazed as we were. They literally look like they belong in a magazine!

    If you’re looking for photographers who will capture the most beautiful images you’ve ever seen while making the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free, look no further than Jill and Gordon at Meew Meew Studios. We cannot recommend them highly enough – truly a 10 out of 10 rating! Thank you, Jill and Gordon, for memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Your talent and kindness have left a lasting impression on us.

    The Best Choice We Made!

    This is long overdue… my husband and I were married on a windy Thursday in January, and while there were certain aspects while planning that we chose to forego or relax on, we knew that whatever we did, we would not sacrifice on photography, and my GOODNESS were we glad to have hired MeewMeew.

    Jill and Gordon were by far the best choice we made for our special day on Maui. They’re both incredibly warm and professional, and did an awesome job wrangling us all without it feeling pushy or rushed. Jill was encouraging and supportive when it came to poses, and made sure the timing was just right for our sunset photos. Between her and Gordon, the photos they took of our day are undoubtedly the most beautiful and well-composed photos we’ve ever seen. We had our sneak peek photos before we left the island, and received our full portfolio (500 photos) way sooner than anticipated!

    Jill and Gordon are both so sweet, and it really felt like I was meeting a friend when Jill arrived at the venue. I’m not only beyond grateful for their breathtaking photos, but also feel fortunate to have met them and shared our special day with them. Do yourself a favor and invite them to be a part of your day. I promise it’ll be the best decision you’ll make, apart from your partner at the altar!

    Highly recommended. Coudn't be happier with photos.

    I am a graphic designer and very picky when it comes to selecting a photographer. Other photographers use wrong lenses and weird angles. Meew Meew studio definitely stood out as the best and I am thrilled with our photos. Jill has great energy and very easy to work with. She helped us how to pose and made us feel comfortable. My fiancé said the photoshoot with Jill was one of the favorite things we did in Hawaii. Our photos are absolutely beautiful and Jill is so talented at curating the story through her lenses. Thank you Jill!

    Friendly and Professional Photographer Duo!

    We could not be happier with our decision to select MeewMeew Studios for our destination wedding photography in Maui, HI. We instantly fell in love with their light and airy style when we saw their online gallery. It was exactly what we were looking for to match our aesthetic. Not to mention, they were the sweetest duo to work with! They captured our most precious moments perfectly! Our sneak peek photos turned out beyond our expectations! Our photos were published in an online magazine, and rightfully so; the photo quality and the emotion captured in each photo really tells our wedding day story. Our photos are stunning and we cannot wait to receive our full gallery!

    Professional, confident, and AMAZING!

    Jill and Gordon were an absolute dream to work with. I wanted our wedding to feel light, airy, and whimsical and their photography work was able to convey just that.
    I told Jill we might be a bit awkward in photos so we'll definitely need help with posing, and she was happy to help! In the moment of photos I was worried I wasn't following Jill's instructions very well, but we were always reassured we were doing great and everything was beautiful. I feel like we got plenty of romantic and candid shots, and we surprisingly didn't feel out of place at all. Jill and Gordon helped us feel comfortable and confident, which is exactly what you want from a photographer!
    Not much later after the wedding, we were able to see a preview album of some of the photos they took. We were absolutely blown away! I was worried and sad because I knew I'd have to wait a long time before we got to see any of their photos, but they were kind enough to share more than 20 of them so soon.
    You will NOT regret booking Meew Meew Studios! They will provide you the wedding photos of your dreams.

    Captured the Magic of our Maui Wedding

    It was a dream come true for us to get married in Maui, and we searched for the perfect photographer to capture the magic on our wedding day. Jill and Gordon from MeewMeew Studios blew away our expectations! There isn't a day that goes by where we don't view the stunning pictures. The service was also outstanding with several preview pics within a week to share with our friends on social media. We also purchased the high-quality ArtBook that retold the story of our wedding day with beautiful pictures. If you're seeking that photographer to capture your magical day, look no further than MeewMeew Studios. You'll be amazed!

    Super talented and so easy to work with - dream wedding photography team!

    We cannot thank Jill and Gordon enough for the amazing photos they captured on our wedding day! From the first point of contact to the very end, Jill was so responsive to emails (which is a huge deal when you are planning a destination wedding). Jill has a super calming and kind personality, which really helps set the tone when there is so much going on in a short period. The turnaround time on our sneak peek gallery was just a few days and we also received our full gallery in less than 60 days, which I felt is very fast for wedding photos! Despite the fact that I forgot to make a list of guests for group photos, we still managed to capture all the group shots we wanted. I really loved that none of this felt stressful. Would highly recommend MeewMeew Studios!

    Truly a Dream!

    Jill and Gordon are Amazing, the pictures are beyond beautiful!! Pictures sometimes do places no justice but Jill and Gordon’s photos are the exception. They captured every special moment and the angles, lighting and willingness to go above and beyond are reflected in every shot. We rescheduled our wedding three times because of Covid, fortunately the third date we selected was one of the very few dates Meew Meew studios had available and I immediately knew it was meant to be. Pictures are treasured memories and this was one of the few items I do not regret going over my budget with. The memories captured are priceless and Jill is so sweet and profesional, truly worth it!

    Seriously the best thing about my wedding

    Honestly, I don’t even know where to start. First, Jill and Gordon were AMAZING as human beings. Jill took care of me throughout my whole ceremony and our 2 hour long photography session afterwards. She helped hold my bouquet, dress, and even hands when I was having a hard time walking. I had a destination wedding and KNEW I had to have Jill and Gordon as my photographers. Their website sold me and when I had my venue, I instantly emailed them. I only had a ceremony and was quite nervous about the session, but Jill and Gordon were great at easing the nerves and making you feel beautiful. I’m usually really awkward with people, but they were so friendly and easy to talk to. They felt like family afterwards! I highly, highly recommend them. I just got my previews and it’s been two days since the wedding and they are BEAUTIFUL! I am so glad I went to Oahu!

    Best photographer hands down.

    If you are looking to splurge on just one part of your wedding, this is it. Not only were Jill and Gordon kind and funny, but they are incredibly talented! My super awkward husband and I looked so comfortable in our pictures because Jill and Gordon were our biggest hype men. Our pictures turned out AMAZING and I swear I didn’t look as good as they made me look in those pictures ;) I would hire them 100 times over again. The only down side is that all other photographers will be a let down after you use them.

    Jill and Gordon are Amazing!!!

    We can't say enough good things about MeewMeew Studios!! Jill and Gordon are an incredible team and made us feel so at ease on our big day. My husband (!) and I are typically very camera shy but Jill and Gordon were such professionals and were a calming presence throughout the experience. We were pleasantly surprised to receive a sneak peek just a few days after our wedding. The photos turned out AMAZING and they captured such special moments that we will cherish forever. We are still on cloud 9!
    We're so grateful to Jill and Gordon and their amazing work!!

    Destination wedding at Olowalu Plantation House

    My husband and I absolutely loved working with Jill and Gordon! From our initial interaction and meeting with them the day of the wedding and all throughout the evening, we appreciated their kindness, vision, attention to detail, and patience. In addition to their great work ethic, we were so surprised to get a sneak peek of our photos 2 days after the wedding!! We love the photos already and can't wait to get the rest. The work Jill and Gordon put together is stunning and we have already received so many compliments from family and friends. Thank you Jill and Gordon for capturing our special day and allowing us to remember it each time we look at our photos!

    The sweetest people (& not to mention- the most beautiful photos ever!!)

    The absolute BEST! Not only did MeewMeew take the most beautiful photos, but they also helped calm me on my wedding day. When Jill could tell I was getting a little flustered, she helped take me away from everything for some photos and relax. Jill and Gordon’s personalities are amazing! Seriously would not have wanted anyone else as photographers, and I wish I could go back and do it all again! I can’t even believe the photos are real!!!! MeewMeew is the BEST and I would recommend to literally any and everyone🤍

    Perfection

    Our wedding planner Kim Yonamine from Exclusive Island Weddings had highly recommended MeewMeew Studios as a photographer for our destination wedding in Maui, at the Olowalu Plantation House. I reviewed their website and was impressed with their beautiful photographs. The pictures were romantic and captivating. After I had my first phone meeting with owner Jill, I knew MeewMeew Studios would be our official photographer. Jill and her husband Gordon captured our special day perfectly. I have never been comfortable in front of the camera and I had shared this with Jill. She assured me that I wouldn’t even notice them, as there were many other beautiful distractions during our celebration! Jill and Gordon’s presence was effortless and they immediately put us at ease with their down to earth personalities. All we had to do was smile by the tropical gardens and ocean landscape! We chose the package that included the ArtBook. Our family and friends commented how impressive the beautiful photographs were featured in this stunning book. We had never seen anything like it. The photographs will last a lifetime and it was worth every dollar! The quality of the ArtBook is breathtaking. MeewMeew Studios was a dream to work with and the customer service was phenomenal.

    Incredible Wedding Photos!!

    We cannot say enough how wonderful Jill and Gordon are! They are both total sweethearts and complete professionals that truly captured the love at our wedding :)



    On our big day, Jill and Gordon made posing feel easy and natural and they also captured amazing candid photos. They made us feel so comfortable and we are so happy that we got to work with them!



    The day after our wedding we received a “sneak peek” album and it had almost 80 beautifully edited photos! It was so wonderful to get a glimpse of our big day so quickly! And the turn around time for our full gallery was quicker than we had expected and we are completely blown away with all of the photos! We cannot stop looking at them all!



    We could not be any happier with their work and would HIGHLY recommend them for their services. Thank you so much again Jill and Gordon for capturing memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.



    Love, Shawna and Brandon Ribak

    25th Marriage Anniversary with the MeewMeew team !!

    We celebrated our 25th Marriage anniversary at Maui. We got lucky that our wedding planner referred us Jil & Gordon. We look at our photos almost everyday and thank Jil & Gordon. The quality of the pictures is just A++ and every memory and minutest details have been captured so beautifully. We have now put a dedicated wall in our house , just to put some of their lovely photos.

    Even during the 2 days of shoot , it was such an amazing experience. We & all our guests were made to feel so comfortable and both Jil & Gordon were so flexible with everything (including we running over our scheduled time as per our contract). Almost instantly post the event, they shared a small preview of some our best shots & on my request they went out of their way to deliver the final album way before schedule.

    If you are lookikg for a highly talented team who can capture life time memories for you and make you feel that they are part of the family & the friends group , then MeewMeew team is the one!!

    Absolutely amazing experience!!!

    I cannot say enough good things about MeewMeew studios/photography. We are still on cloud 9 from our wedding day! My husband (eek!) and I are not the type to get photos done and were very nervous about the photography for our wedding. Well, needless to say we never felt uncomfortable and we were so supported the entire time and they put us at such ease it was amazing. They are so encouraging and easy to work with. They are the sweetest couple and we loved having them a part of our day! Our photos not only are incredible but I cannot lie, I feel like they're the best photos I have ever seen! (Not to brag!). I would recommend MeewMeew over and over and over again to anyone that would ask. I will be telling all my family and friends to book with them if they ever need photography done and we may end up booking with them again someday for an anniversary or something. I wish I could go back and do it all over again! Thank you both so much for the most amazing day, making us feel so confident and beautiful and helping us to make the day so special. We couldn't have asked for anything more from you. Mahalo Mahalo MAHALO!!!!!

    Literally the most perfect experience

    I truly feel blessed to have chosen MeewMeew Studios for our photography. We could not be any happier with having Jill and Gordon shoot our dream wedding.

    First, the results were stellar. They immediately provided us a highlight picture the day after our wedding and a highlight reel just two days after. The quality of the work and editing was outstanding -- I have no idea how they managed to have such a fast turnaround time for over 50 photos! All of them were gorgeous. Friends who are well-versed in photography could not stop commenting on how skillful our photographers were in the framing of the pictures and how well they captured key moments. We eagerly await the rest of the photos!

    Second, Jill and Gordon were such kind and amazing people to work with the day of our wedding. It was easy to pose for shots and they guided us gently and efficiently. They were present when they needed to be but most of the time stayed in the background doing hidden and beautiful work and capturing memories for us. Looking at the photos afterwards, I was amazed at the angles they got because I did not notice them taking photos at all during the ceremony or the reception! To me, that is a sign of very skillful photographers.

    I would highly recommend MeewMeew to anyone. Their pastel and happy style was perfect for capturing one of the happiest days of our lives :) Thank you Jill and Gordon!

    Amazing Maui Wedding Photos!

    Jill and Gordon were a DREAM to work with. We could not have been happier with the experience and photos they provided for us. Even before we saw a single photograph, we knew we made the right decision in selecting them as our photographers. They gave us great direction and made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. On top of that, they delivered spectacularly stunning photos that we will cherish for a lifetime. We cannot them enough!
