Meet my cousin J and (now) wife, MJ. They've been dating since high school and got engaged last year during a trip to Japan. They planned for a September 2020 nuptials, but that wedding turned into a postponement due to COVID and then turned into a very last minute decision to elope- with just a handful of people in-the-know.
At the end of December, they hopped on a plane from the mainlans (where they currently live) and flew to Hawaii (where they are both from), surprised me with a call asking if I was available to be their Oahu Elopement Photographer, and then they got married! I was sworn to secrecy, which was really hard to do with such exciting news, but I kept my mouth shut!
The sun was shining bright, the beach was a little crowded, and it was a windy morning. They got married in front of his parents, her mom and with their siblings on Face Time watching the entire event!
It wasn't their original plan, but it was perfect! I don't know how you guys pulled it off with such a short amount of time, but you did and it makes me so happy that you didn't let COVID strip away your happiness. Congratulations to the newlyweds!
After the ceremony, we snuck out for about 45 minutes to take some portraits.
