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!

If you're in Oahu and looking for a photographer, I highly recommend Michelle!

From the first quick inital response to my inquiry and the detailed instructions was so helpful. Radek allowed me to personalize our experience with a specific location and time of day since I wanted to have photo session during sunset. I appreciate his attention to detail to make sure every picture was perfect. He was so quick and efficient so we were able to shoot so many photos during our session. His rates are very affordable and worth it, I would recommend him to all my family and friends. Lastly I'm so appreciative of his quick turn around time, I was so impressed that our photos were available after 1week. Thank you Radek, we will definitely be requesting more photo shoots in the future.

Krystal was wonderful to work with! She coordinated with me and my husband leading up to the…read morephotoshoot, answered all of our questions, made suggestions on locations, and gave us all the information we needed to have our photo session be a success! Once on the beach she was such a pleasure to talk to just as a human being, and made taking pictures relaxing, she did such a great job with our two year old son (making him laugh) and me being pregnant (feeling comfortable in a see-thru flowy gown). She told me the pictures could take up to 2-3 weeks before we got them, and around week 4 I text her to make sure everything was okay, and the next day she sent us the pictures. I didn't want to to rush her because I did a lot of research on photographers and her aesthetic was so beautiful and worth waiting for, but was insanely relieved that all was good and gave us the pictures close to checking in. My only feedback to anyone working with Krystal is to give her the time she needs to do her job - it's worth every penny and minute! And when she delivered the pictures they were incredible. They turned out SO GOOD! I knew they'd be good but I still have no idea how she was able to capture some of the photos she did. These are priceless memories we get to keep forever thanks to her and I'm so grateful we were able to book Krystal for a maternity photoshoot. I will be contacting Krystal again for photos in the future for all our family events from here on. We love her work and want to say thank you!

From the very beginning, Krystal was incredibly responsive, kind, patient, and accommodating. When our travel plans changed a few weeks before our session, she effortlessly adjusted our time without any issue. During the session, Krystal made us feel completely comfortable--even though we're not natural "posers" or used to professional photos. We are absolutely in love with how our pictures turned out! The quality is incredible, and my husband was especially impressed that we received so many beautiful images to choose from. If you're considering photos while visiting Hawaii or need someone to capture a special occasion, family session, or couples shoot, we highly recommend Krystal. Thank you, Krystal, for capturing our 10-year anniversary trip so beautifully!

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. She showed up early to our site to scope it out and did a last minute location change. I'm really glad I went with Gita. She also made you feel like family. She wasn't afraid to get dirty and wet in the water. I'm sure she's used to it but I think she ruined a good pair of sneakers! Also, most importantly you will love your photos!

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!

Aloha, Tara is a true professional photographer, knows how…read moreto handle the ohana, especially 1 year old! 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!

I honestly don't like to write reviews but I felt like this one was warranted. Tara is very kind,…read morehospitable, and flexible. I appreciated she split our time with us between our actual wedding and before wedding shots. I understand everyone has "their own style" but some things were not about style. Granted, I know the Hawaiian sun is harsh, but as a photographer, you must understand lighting. The pre wedding photos we took down in the blowhole were good, but not great. None of the photos had any editing, and if there was any, I couldn't see where. She left nips in my dress there, and did not blur them. Horrible posing, and very few that I could actually show my family or friends. I was so embarrassed that as a woman she wouldn't understand modesty. Now, my wedding...there's the kicker. Half of my guests were facing the sun. She placed everyone in harsh sunlight, which created harsh shadows, and caused my guests eyes to be squinted or closed. I am not even a photographer, and I think I have enough common sense not to face people towards the sun. I don't understand why she did this. Very few photos I could use. I am having to learn photoshop because I am hoping to salvage some of these. I have so many harsh shadows and she washed everyone out, that I cant barely touch these up in Photoshop. Once the lighting is messed up, theres not much I can do to save the photo. She did not pay attention to detail and took pictures of us in a street where there were cars, street signs, ugly buildings, and structures in the background. I will never understand why she did this. I was really sad, It has taken me a year to return to my wedding photos and try to fix them. With so many tools in photoshop, even as a beginner, why not crop out the ugly telephone pole, street sign, or make the grass a little better? I live in Florida and this was our destination wedding. I paid her upfront and immediately, a year in advance (just about). The pictures she gave me look nothing like what I saw on her website or instagram. I was so disheartened. I am glad I did get a video from someone else. I paid so much less for an amazing video from someone else. If I could do it again, I would have paid someone else. It felt like she pointed and clicked with no rhyme or reason, and no retouching or editing was done of any kind. It's like she didn't care about what she was doing, or the quality of work. This was my wedding and almost all pictures have shadows, squinted faces, or eyes closed. Not acceptable for wedding photos. My friends and family's iPhone pictures actually turned out better. Please think long and hard, and really look before you pay someone for your wedding photos. You only have one wedding, don't hire a bad photographer who doesn't pay attention to details. Im sorry I have to leave this review, but its not okay to pay that amount of money for a once in a lifetime event for it to be so sloppy. Again, this is not an attack on her personally, but the work was just not there. you can see some of where I tried to fix attached. The before on the left hand side and the right the after. Mind you these are some of the best ones. There are way worse ones with harsh shadows and eyes.
