The photos turned out even better than I imagined. She didn't just capture how everything looked - she captured how it felt. The love, the little in-between moments, the natural joy of the day... it's all there. And somehow, she made the already stunning Oahu backdrop look even more beautiful. Also, shoutout to her patience because the wind was aggressively fighting my bangs the entire time, and she handled it so seamlessly without ever making it feel stressful or rushed. Genuinely couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. If you're even considering booking her - do it. The quality of her work and the experience she creates are both so, so worth it!

She communicated thoroughly with me, sending me images of where we would be shooting. She gave great ideas and I'm glad I went with her suggestions as our photos came out exactly how I would've wanted.

That was the first time we had a professional photographer take our photos and eventhough both my husband and I were awkward with posing, she was so nice with guiding us and made us feel comfortable. She really makes an effort in knowing our story and discussing how we wanted our photos to look. Our next project with her was our newborn/family photoshoot during the pandemic. She graciously accepted the challenge of taking the photos at our small apartment and her skills shines through as she can take beautiful photos with that set up. Our latest project with her was our little one's 1st birthday cake smash/family photoshoot. We love that she can give recommendations on the beautiful places around the island and if you have a specific vision in mind, you will enjoy working with her as she is very open to any ideas. Moreover, she made sure everything was set and prepared before the photoshoot. She was so calm and patient with our uncooperative baby and we were amazed that she was able to take beautiful shots despite that. We are thankful that she granted our request that we need a couple of the photos the next day for the party. Overall, she is a great photographer and we cannot recommend her enough!

I am the type of person wanting & needing to reach out to 3 - 4 companies for information/inquires for services. Same as anyone wanting services for roofing, painting, solar and AC for their home. I reached out to 2-3 photographers, I advised wanting a photo shoot at a park, no beaches, yes I know we will in Hawaii but everyone does a beach photo. First photographer didn't even respond to my online, email requests. I even called the phone number listed, left a message, no call back. Second photographer confirmed will not be a good fit for my request due to only does nature photography, so only beaches, hmmm, last I checked parks with trees is nature! Final photographer, Sky & Reef Photography -Tara Morenfeld with all the information I requested for. Reserved a Sunday morning date, Tara was on time and ready to go. Worked with the 1year old first, while baby is in a good mood! Worked with each individual ohana then entire ohana. I highly recommend Sky & Reef photography Tara Morenfeld for your next photo session! Again Tara is a professional and keeps her word on how to work the ohana!
