My entire family travelled to Honolulu in December for Christmas holidays for a family reunion. I found Mariah on line based on her past reviews with high ratings. The entire process was seamless, given her experience in dealing with international travelers, it worked well in our favor. She was very responsive and we hosted a meet and greet zoom call prior to our travels. My husband and I live in Hong Kong and I had family reunion with various family member traveling through to Hawaii from across US and Canada. Mariah was very easy to deal with and even suggested a package that suited our needs. She suggested a shorter time frame as oppose to a longer time frame given the occasion and location, she felt 1 hour was more than enough time to capture the shots we needed. We appreciated her honesty and she was spot on! We hired Mariah for a family photoshoot with total of 15 people with kids ranging from 12-18 as well as grandparents. On the day of the photoshoot - Mariah was very easy to deal with and was a natural. She managed to capture all the beautiful shots and worked well with each family and to give each family their special photo opportunity along with the extended families as well. If you are looking for a professional photographer, easy to deal with and who can capture beautiful shots - Mariah Milan is the place to go! read more

We did a family photo session with Mariah. It was us, our 3 kids, and both grandmas. We did a sunrise session and even though it was 5am in the morning, everyone had such a great time. Mariah made us feel comfortable and she is good with kids (ours ranged from 4-12 years old). The pictures came out amazing! read more

Mariah was responsive and personable all through text and email. She was communicative and everything she explained was clear. Her website is user friendly and is very informative. Mariah matched us up with Clarissa to do a family portraits session. Days before our session, everything from email confirmation of our photoshoot to then sending the assigned photographer's name to us was professional. Clarissa texted me a few days before to introduce herself. Clarissa was very friendly offering to do a photoshoot during sunset even though we scheduled a sunrise photoshoot but Clarissa was trying to accommodate our schedule. We went ahead as planned a sunrise photoshoot. The night before, Clarissa texted me the direction to our session spot. On the morning of, we get lost to our photoshoot location! Clarissa sent me her location via Google and for some reason (I didn't receive it). By this time the sun was rising and now running 30 minutes late from our time. Clarissa worked with what she could. She worked hard and the results still came out beautiful! She was easy and my kids were receptive to her cues. The photos were ready as promised and the price was right! We loved our photos and overall was extremely happy with them. I would totally use them again! Please consider reaching out to Mariah Milan Photographers to have them photoshoot your family portraits! read more

Great experience! Booked everything online, went smoothly during the session and the images are more than frame/holiday card/social media worthy!! Would recommend if you're interested in capturing a special moment! read more

We wanted a photographer who would connect with a teenager and capture her youth and wholesome beauty at this important milestone in her young life. Mariah was a perfect match. The sunrise shoot gave us the desired sun in the hair, feet in the sand and glowing smile on her face. The option to have just the 25 digital pictures (chosen from maybe three times that number) for us to use as we choose is exactly what we wanted at a price we can afford. We have wonderful lasting memories of a morning on Maui. read more

Mariah is simply amazing. We have taken pictures with her twice and the beauty of my pictures has literally taken my breath away both times. Did a maternity shoot with her and a family shoot with a 1 and 3 year old, both at sunrise. Mariah is fantastic at communicating information and making sure you are ready for your photo shoot. The actual session is fun and she was amazing with my kids and camera shy husband. I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone looking for pictures in Maui!! read more

We first met Mariah because she photographed our friends' wedding in Wailea, and we loved the candid light filled photos that captured their beauty and personality as well as how friendly Mariah and her husband were. The next day, another wedding guest booked Mariah for a surprise engagement shot, the next month, our other friends booked Mariah for their engagement shoot on the Big Island, and then we booked Mariah to capture photos for our 10 year anniversary / babymoon / familymoon. We're so glad we did! We were a bit worried how our 2 year old toddler would handle the shoot but Mariah is such a pro and bonded with him very well. She got some great shots of just him as well as with all of us. We'll definitely book with her again if we ever want photos done in Maui again. If you're curious about her style or personality before booking, I recommend following her on Instagram :) read more

Choosing Mariah photograph for our wedding was the best decision we made. Mariah and her team did an absolutely amazing job photographing our wedding. They worked great with our coordinator including with working around the small change in location. Can not recommend her and her team enough! read more

We chose Mariah Milan to take our family photos while we were vacationing in Maui and I am so glad we did! She was absolutely fantastic when it came to every single aspect of our experience from before we booked to ordering prints. Mariah was very prompt in responding to multiple questions before we even officially booked our experience. She answered all of our questions and was able to suggest the perfect spot for our photo shoot! In the weeks prior to us arriving she sent us tips for her favorite restaurants, activities and suggestions for outfits for the family. I will absolutely recommend her to every single person that is going to be on Maui!! read more

I had an awesome experience with Mariah and Samantha. Mariah's response to my booking was really quick. She was very geniuine, kind, warm and welcoming through every conversation. While planning, Mariah definitely made me feel confident that she would bring to life the engagement photos I envisioned, in regards to location and the background of what Maui really meant to both my fiancé and I. Samantha was our actual photographer for the day and she was awesome! The weather was perfect and it was fun just hanging out with my fiancé, while Samantha took pictures. She definitely made us feel comfortable to be ourselves while taking pictures. Exchanging stories with Samantha and getting to know her made the shoot even better. The turn around time on the edited engagement photos was earlier than I expected (about 2 weeks after the pictures were taken). Which was awesome! I got to see the pictures right away through a private link. The website, the pictures were uploaded to, was very easy to navigate. From the pictures themselves to the editing- I really, really, really loved how they turned out! I honestly could not choose a set amount of pictures to have, so I ended up purchasing the entire gallery. Overall my experience from beginning to end was more than I expected. I think my favorite part of the whole experience was getting to engage with Mariah and Samantha. They are just genuine, kind hearted, awesome people that more of this world needs. If I ever need future pictures on Maui, please be sure you'll be hearing from me again. Thanks again Mariah and Samantha for the beautiful pictures. read more

Highly recommend Mariah! She photographed our family in Maui December 2022 and was so easy to work with. I did a fair amount of research prior to booking and looked at several photographers pricing, reviews and portfolio - she excelled all around. We did a 30 min session which was perfect. Mariah is very professional and at the same time she makes you comfortable. Photographs are beautiful - so glad we make time for this. read more

Mariah photographed our wedding this July at Merrimans and we were thrilled with the pictures! Not only were happy with the quality but also how quickly she turned them around. But I have to say the best thing about having your photos taken by Mariah, is her calming and warm personality. It brings out the best in you when your comfortable and it really shows well in the pictures. Let's be honest- most of us aren't super models or all photogenic. Mariah really puts you at ease and brings out the natural beauty of the moment. When you feel yourself relax a little and stop trying to pose or contantly smile until your cheeks hurt, you end up with some of the best photos and snapshots of a moment you can live over for years to come. Isn't that what photos are all about? Capturing a moment in time or a memory you want to relive. Mariah makes it happen. It ended up raining on our wedding day and while I was waiting outside the venue in the car Mariah made the point to stop by and reassure me the clouds would create some amazing photos. But further more, she offered to come back the next day for a photo session if the rain didn't let up, luckily the rain cooperated. But I really felt this was a true testament to Mariah's personal character. Mariah is passionate about what she does and really cares about the event, moment or reason you are having photos taken. Passion is not a service you can buy or something you can request in your photographer, but it's the difference between good photos and stunning photos. We highly recommend Mariah and whenever we find ourselves in Maui next- we will surely find a reason to have photos taken with Mariah again. read more

Every year for the last 10 years we do yearly photos. I always have a hard time finding one "perfect" photo to put on our holiday card. This year we moved to Maui and I asked Mariah to do our photos at our new home. She was kind, accommodating, wonderful, and easy to be around. It didn't feel forced at all. When I received the pictures it was soo hard to choose one for the card. They were all excellent. Without hesitation I have already booked her for 2022 photos and recommend her to everyone I know. read more

Mariah is an amazing photographer with an artist's eye! We could not have been more pleased with her photos. We planned on having our family photographed during our amazing vacation in Maui. After researching Maui photographers, we knew hands down that Mariah was the only photographer for us. Her artistic vision is everything! After securing Mariah's services, we changed things up and decided to make it a vow renewal. Her husband Peter helped us find a wonderful officiant. (Peter is also an officiant but was booked that night.) The pictures were beyond special, truly capturing our family on that most memorable evening. Mariah was kind and caring and a professional in every way! We cannot wait to have her photograph our crew again in the future. Thank you so much Mariah! We love you. read more

Mariah was the most perfect photographer we could have chosen for our wedding. Her team was fantastic from the moment we selected them - and incredibly professional and thoughtful on the day of our wedding. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous (just as we knew they would from having done a thorough review of their work in advance). She also got us a couple preview shots the next day so we had something to post. I would choose them over and over again - they are the BEST team on Maui! Oh, and LGBTQ+ friendly too. Xoxoxo read more

Mariah has photographed our family for 3 years now, and we're very happy with her work. She has a wonderful eye for beautiful and unique shots, and I love the way she captures our family in a natural way. My boys become very comfortable with her, even our camera shy 8 year old. We always get beautiful, fun pictures and have an enjoyable session. Looking forward to more amazing photos in the future. On the personal side, Mariah is truly a sweetheart and super easy to work with! read more

I do not have words to express how amazing Mariah's photos are!! When my husband and I first watched the slideshow of the photos WE BOTH CRIED. Not only are the photographs spectacular, Mariah beautifully caught little moments that are so "us" and that capture exactly our feelings and love for our family. This photo session was a family shoot, with myself, my husband, and our two kids (3yo and 18 months). Mariah knew exactly where to meet us for a great setting (I mean, it's Maui, all settings are amazing, but this was very kid friendly), and she gave excellent directions for getting wonderful photographs. Mariah is so cheerful and personable, we were all very at ease (even my 18 mo daughter who is pretty reticent around new people). The photographs themselves are incredible. Like, really, really beautiful. So professional but also REAL. It feels like Mariah saw us as a family, and managed to translate our feelings and love right into the picture. There is no question: BOOK WITH MARIAH. You will not be disappointed, and in fact you will be overwhelmed with the amazingness. read more

I cannot recommend Mariah enough! We have used her 4 times for family photos when we have vacationed in Maui and she is the sweetest, most talented photographer! The kids love her (which makes photographing little ones easy) and she has such an amazing eye... she would capture my vision (and beyond) of what I wanted for our family pics. Every shoot we have done with her has amazed me when we get the photos. She sends detailed emails of where to be and a Pinterest board for ideas of what to wear as well as a questionnaire so she knows exactly what you are looking for. We've done beach photos and the MillHouse and the results have all been perfection! I recommend her to all our friends traveling to Maui. Mariah is just all around a wonderful woman and we will continue to book her when we visit the island. Thank you, Mariah! read more

We booked Mariah through a friends recommendation 5 years ago to photograph our wedding. We were so impressed with her work that we have returned to her to capture both pregnancies since then. Her vision and esthetic are perfection, no one does it better! The best part is she make you feel like family....she is truly one of the kindest people you will ever meet. When you feel comfortable with your photographer, it reflects in the images and that's incredibly important! If you've been searching for a photographer, do yourself a favor and book Mariah to capture your memorable day or milestone. You will not regret it!! read more

Simply put, Mariah is one of the best photographers on the island. I am a photographer in California and I searched for MONTHS to find an amazing photographer to take our family photos while we were on vacation in Maui. I was super excited when I found Mariah! Being an industry insider, I can tell you all, SHE IS AMAZING, she has a depth of knowledge in both the technical and artistic aspects of photography that rival the best in the world. read more

I love Mariah so much. She has taken our family portraits two times now on the awesome island of Maui. Her work is so incredible and she captures the best in everyone in each one of her photos. Mariah is professional, punctual, kind and she also has the most angelic voice. She will have you at ease at the time of your session and direct everyone on poses, best angles and best spots to shoot. Rest assured, your photos will come out looking absolute gorgeous. You will not be disappointed in getting portraits taken by Mariah. She is so talented and such a true gem. read more

We absolutely loved our wedding photos. Mariah is amazingly talented, super sweet and a breeze to work with! Her happy spirit shines in everything she does. Her husband Peter was also our officiant and helped with the flashes during our shoot. It was an absolute pleasure getting to know both of them and they truly made us feel special. Our photography was included as part of our package with Maile Maui Weddings and the price was VERY reasonable and the pictures were top notch. read more

Mariah took amazing family photos for us this winter. She was responsive to our questions before we travelled, worked with us to find a location that worked for our family, and made sure everyone in our large group, from 2 to 60, had a great time and felt relaxed in front of the camera. We really appreciated the opportunity to take a variety of different groupings, and she captured a few amazing candid shots- so important with a toddler! The whole family is so happy with the results! If I ever need a photographer in Maui again, Mariah would be my first choice. read more

Mariah did a fantastic job on our family photos! We chose the small family package for shooting for 30 minutes with 25 photos and it was perfect for our busy toddler. The morning session was perfect lighting and she is so talented we decided to buy all 56 photos. Mariah has the sweetest soul and our baby was happy to shoot with her. We hope to have family photos with her on our future vacations. Her team is super helpful, regular communicators, and even send you emails to recommend activities and places to eat on the island just because they're that professional! Dont hesitate to book her! read more

We received our pictures from Mariah. I'm blown away by her ability to capture the pure joy from my children which is very hard to do with one of them. My girls loved hanging out with her during our session and it's so obvious in the pictures. Although we take family pictures yearly, it's always so much enjoyable when the photographer directs you what to do. One of the many reasons of why we keep returning to Maui is the people and the beauty of the island. Mariah represents both. She's made the process so easy from initial booking to delivery of the gallery. Can't wait to see her again! read more

Mariah is an amazing and very talented photographer. She is such a sweet, warm and very professional woman. We had fun on our photo session and felt very natural with her. She has that way about her. Mariah was generous with our time and she captured some amazing moments on film. I highly recommend her and we love our photos. We will be back to see you when we visit Maui again. read more

Mariah took our pictures during our first family Maui vacation. We could not have picked a better photographer. It started raining on us just as we started our photo session and she just took advantage of the opportunity without any hesitation or stress. She found a way to turn what could have been a disastrous session into a creative opportunity. We ended up with some beautiful pictures with a perfect rainbow in the backdrop. We then moved to a different location, which ended up being a perfect place for our little 1yr old daughter. Mariah made the photo session stress-free, memorable, and fun. Despite her hectic holiday schedule, we even received our final pictures earlier then expected. We are so incredibly thankful to Mariah for the amazing family memories that she captured for us. We would recommend her in a heartbeat. read more

I'm from the Bay Area,CA & my husband,2kids,& I took a trip to Maui in April of this year.I wanted to take our first family photos in Hawaii & especially because it was our 10yr.anniversary year.I found Mariah Milan Photography because I liked her style of photos(simple yet vibrant,family oriented,& reasonable prices).She was very pleasant to work with over the phone & via email,but most of all very flexible when we wanted to change the date of our photoshoot because the weather in West Maui that day was rainy &gloomy!Which I'm glad we did because the day we picked turned out to be a day perfect for sunset pictures on the beach Mariah was very helpful in helping us choose a picture spot near the hotels we were staying at.I loved how she was great with my kids,grabbing their attention,&making them smile!She took her time in a 1hr.photoshoot to take enough photos of my family at different spots in Kapalua Bay,all the way till the last sunset.We just got the CD in the mail yest.&she emailed me the link to our photos within 2weeks.All of the pics turned out really nice & super cute!Thanks again Mariah!We had so much fun & you made our vacation in Maui a memorable one. read more

This is a very delayed review, but I was just looking back through our incredible photos Mariah took and I had to take the time to write a review. Mariah did a session for our family at Baby Beach in August and we could not be more thrilled how our photos turned out. She managed to get the most incredible photos of our 11 month old... somehow was able to get him to smile or look engaged in almost every photo... she really has the magic touch! She gave us everything we asked for and more and gave us family memories for a lifetime. We did a lot of research before choosing her, and yes, you can probably find someone to take your photos for less money, but you will not have anything close to the result she produces. Her photos are magic and transport you back to that amazing place, I feel the love of the aloha in every photo! HIGHLY recommend! read more

Mariah is amazing! I was so worried about finding a photographer for my destination wedding and I am so glad I went with Mariah. On top of being a great photographer, she is sooo nice! I think she knew how worried I was about everything going right in Maui for my wedding so she sent me some texts the day before and the day of to reassure me everything was on schedule. That's something that a lot of people don't bother doing and is something that sets her apart from others. Thanks Mariah! read more

We did family photos in Maui with our two young kids and I couldn't be happier. She made sure we knew where to be and when. She even sent out a link weeks before about clothing choices for the photos. I just ordered several of the beautiful pictures she took on canvas today. I highly recommend her! read more

Choosing Mariah to photograph my elopement and Peter to marry us was one of the best decisions that I made for my wedding. Communication was awesome and any questions I had were answered quickly. Both Mariah and Peter were very professional but also hilarious and kind. My photos were more beautiful then I could have ever imagined. Mariah made me feel beautiful on my special day. Thank you guys so much! You guys being there made it that much more special!! read more

We planned our honeymoon to Maui and were looking for the perfect photographer within our price range. We found Mariah and loved her work, so we decided to schedule a 30-minute sunset session. The process was all very easy and Mariah was extremely helpful and friendly. She answered all our questions before scheduling the session and after, as we considered different beaches. She texted us the day before our session and we finally met about 30 minutes before sunset. The session was beautiful and she was very helpful and accommodating and had unique ideas. We felt very comfortable doing something we had not really been used to before. Throughout the session, she eased us into the shoot and answered all our questions about the island. A couple weeks later, our gallery was up and that was very easy to use to download our files. She also respected our privacy concerns. As mentioned, her prices were reasonable, but the quality of her work does not suffer for it. If you are looking for a photographer in Maui (or anywhere else she might be), we can't recommend Mariah highly enough! read more

It was a pleasant experience to have worked with Mariah for our engagement photos! She was very punctual! Friendly! Down to earth! Informative! Creative! Idealistic! She made our souls implanted into the sands of Maui by explaining to us the spiritual meaning behind "aloha", it just cannot get anymore genuine than that. We consider it as a blessing from the coincidence that is was Mariah's 19th year in her business and we were spending our 9th year anniversary! (19th year in the business but not even more than 30 5-star reviews?!?! something is not right!!!) We will definitely return for more shoots in the future and we HIGHLY recommend family and peers to work with Mariah! Thank you again Mariah for your elegant work of arts! MAHALO from California!! read more
