I'm here to help you create an epic elopement experience that will change your lives forever. I'm so happy you're here. I believe that by focusing on small, intimate weddings and adventure elopements in Maui, Oregon, and beyond we're doing our part to simplify, minimize the waste, and reconnect with our planet.
I've photographed a lot of big weddings over the years, but it always felt like there was a disconnect between what was important on the day. My couples didn't have time to visit with their family and friends and the amount of waste produced was staggering. Your wedding day is meant to be enjoyed! I believe humans will need to adapt in order to survive on this planet and that we are moving back to a simpler way of life, so that WE can thrive.

I am super passionate about intimate weddings and adventure elopements and want to be there to support you in this decision. My husband and I eloped on a beach in Hawaii with our family and it was perfect. It was sweet and simple and in line with our core values. We're both pretty laid back and value experiences rather than stuff, so having a small wedding was perfect for us.

Naomi is such an incredible person and brilliant photographer! We hired her for our elopement in the Redwoods and Oregon Coast. The entire process was smooth, easy, and as stress free as a wedding could be! My better half and I were able to focus on our relationship and commitment to each other and Naomi captured our moments perfectly. Naomi is super chill and made us feel comfortable throughout. It was pretty damn cool to witness her creative process flow. There was some structure, adventure, and spontaneity to the day. We are in love with the photos and even happier with the experience.

Naomi photographed our elopement in Maui in June 2021, and she made it a truly unforgettable experience. We chose Naomi because her portfolio is just stunning--I loved how she combines wide shots to show the landscape around the couple as well as close-up shots to highlight all the details from the day. Starting with our introductory conversation, Naomi was very easy to talk to and she struck the perfect balance between wanting to accommodate our vision but also offering guidance on things we knew nothing about. We had several planning conversations and email exchanges that made me feel like we

Naomi helped me with my surprising proposal and she did an awesome job! We are so glad to hire her as our photographer for the big moment. She always responded me quickly and professionally. I started to make arrangements for the proposal weeks ago and she helped me to find out a perfect location, also coordinated the musicians in such a short notice. And before she take shots she shared a lot of useful tips on timing, spots, lights, positions to reduce the strong winds impact. My fiancée loves all the pictures and our families are very happy about the photos we shared. Naomi has great reputation

Naomi is a true professional who did an amazing job with our family pictures. We really wanted quality photos that captured our family in our true outdoor element and Naomi’s aesthetic spoke to our souls. She chased us all over the beach, giving great direction to capture beautiful, magical family moments. I will treasure these pictures for a lifetime. Thank you Naomi!

We did an adventure engagement photo shoot with Naomi at Silver Falls State Park and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! Both my fiancé and I are a little camera shy, but Naomi did a great job of keeping things fun and lighthearted to help us loosen up. We would highly recommend her to anyone that wants incredible photos somewhere off the beaten path, and we’re so excited to have her as our photographer for our wedding next year!

Naomi helped make our Redwoods elopement adventurous, relaxing, unforgettable and so full of love, and now we have an entire photo album of the most insanely beautiful photos to relive our wedding day over and over. She guided us in finding vendors and made great suggestions about where to stay, she was professional and warm hearted and just an all around beautiful soul. Having Naomi with us on this special day is an experience we will never forget.

Naomi is an absolute pleasure to work with and made our wedding day in Maui feel so magical with the photos she captured! She has a true creative eye and keeps the photos feeling very romantic and lively! We loved her energy and appreciated how she spreads her energy with us in person and through her beautiful photos! She loves nature, just like us, and really ties in Mother Nature with her craft :) We loved all the images she took of us! It's hard to pick our favorites! We would hire her again and again! Love you girl! Keep spreading that energy! Aloha xo

My new hubby and I had an amazing time with Naomi! She is extremely talented and professional. Not only did Naomi do an excellent job photographing our special day, she worked to scout the best locations and provided planning assistance/referrals. We had so much fun hanging out with Naomi in the Redwood National Forest and Coast on our wedding day.

Naomi is magical. She was communicative, kind and thoughtful every step of the way. From our first conversation; to navigating the COVID situation that left a lot of uncertainty in our engagement shoot date in Yosemite; to proactively planning important logistical details for us; and of course, the photoshoot where she made everything seamless and left us feeling like we just reconnected with an old friend.
Finally, her vision is flawless. I was sure I'd turn out incredibly awkward in all the photos, but Naomi was able to capture incredibly beautiful photos of my fiancé and I against a

We are thrilled with our wedding photos! Naomi was wonderful to work with and we couldn't be luckier getting her on such short notice. We ended up canceling our original wedding plans this year due to the pandemic and decided we wanted to elope with just a few weeks notice. We found Naomi's website online and reached out. She quickly responded and worked with us on a date and timeline. She was so easy to work with and she did a great job at capturing us and the breathtaking scenery around us. We don't consider ourselves very photogenic, but Naomi did an amazing job at creating a relaxed environment

Naomi captured our day completely perfectly. She made us feel super comfortable, and just let us be ourselves and then captured those moments in an effortless way that made us feel like the stars. We've gotten rave compliments on our photos and even had guests request albums be sent to them. She was super fast with turnaround, very professional yet fun. Her and her second shooter really added to the photo experience to make it natural and seamless.
The best part of working with Naomi and seeing her photography has been the amazing feeling we get when we look over these photos - how they perfectly

My husband and I decided to do a maternity photo shoot on Maui. We've searched and searched for Maui photographers and to us it seemed like everyone's work started to look the same until we came across Naomi's AMAZING photojournalistic style. She is talented and is pleasant to work with! She responds quickly to emails and is thorough about explaining what to expect the day of our shoot. She gave us great recommendations on locations but was also open to our suggestions. Thank you for capturing this special moment for us, Naomi!

I fell in love with Naomi's style of photography and could not wait for her to capture our wedding and day after! Working with her was so easy, she made everything so comfortable and was the sweetest person ever! When we got our photos back I could not have been more thrilled with her work, the images were more incredible than I could have every imagined. I never thought we would have wedding photos like this, and I am so grateful to Naomi for capturing our love. We can't thank Naomi enough!!

Naomi was fantastic! She was extremely professional and did a great job helping us make decisions prior to our arrival in Maui. She was amazing at making us feel very comfortable and at ease in front of the camera and we couldn't be happier with the way our wedding pictures turned out! Since it was just us two in Hawaii getting married I wanted to make sure she captured our special day and she did so perfectly!

Working with Naomi was a dream. From the easy communication of planning our little intimate elopement ceremony, to the final edited gallery, my husband and I could not be more happy with our experience with her. She made us feel at ease during the whole shoot and offered her own expertise while listening to our preferences as well. A lovely professional photographer and person all around. Thank you, Naomi!

Words cannot describe how thankful we are for Naomi! She is such an AMAZING photographer and person!
We came to Maui for my Fiance's company trip and we wanted to squeeze in an engagement session. I found her through Instagram and instantly fell in love with her work. We didn't rent a car during our stay, so we met at our first location and she was sweet enough to take us around for photos during our session. She knew exactly what we wanted in terms of photo ops and captured us so beautifully. It was definitely a pleasant experience!
We fell in love with our photos and were so excited

Because our wedding was such a small affair (him, me, Naomi, and our officiant), I didn't want to deal with/pay a wedding planner. That complicates things when you're planning a wedding from afar - I didn't know what Maui had to offer in terms of venues, who's great to work with, and who's not.
Naomi talked me some great location options, asked questions about us as a couple to get a sense of things we might like, and ended up helping

I just realized I never reviewed Naomi after we did a photo shoot with her in Maui!!!! This is way overdue.
We wanted to do a maternity shoot while we were out in Maui over a year ago. We found Naomi through another photographers recommendation beforehand. We checked out her work online and liked it. The online and phone call conversations were easy and the communication was great so we sent her a deposit to lock the date. A few weeks later, we arrived and met up with Naomi at the beach where she recommended for great sunset photos. She was super nice and easy to work with. She is also

Our experience with Naomi was incredible! From first interaction to final product she was communicative, open, collaborative, encouraging, and a total pro. I was a fan from the work I'd seen online, but there's no way to know until actually working with a person, and for both my husband and I she went above and beyond our expectations. We're both a tad camera shy and planned our Maui wedding with a major quick turn-around, but Naomi quickly captured our personalities and made us super comfortable with awesome ideas. Everything was a breeze and so much fun. Our photos were even better

Naomi is an absolute joy to work with and we couldn't be happier with our photos! I really wanted to take photos at multiple locations and was thrilled that Naomi was also very enthusiastic about that idea! She helped us find a second location, made stops some stop along the way, and didn't even charge extra for travel time! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and we had so much fun! I'm so glad Naomi was there to capture our day on "film" so perfectly! She even got our wedding photos back to us quicker than initially quoted! If you need a fun, adventurous wedding photographer

After a lot of back & forth research of different photographers on the island who could help capture our elopement, we decided on going with Naomi.
She has a great ability to capture beautiful moments in anything, even from two people trying hard not to be awkward for the camera :)
If you've looked at any of Naomi's work and liked it, then you should undoubtedly go with her as I can't imagine our experience going any better than it did!
PS. let her know that you're open to going on an adventure and she'll most likely take you somewhere breathtaking!

We were so incredibly pleased with how Naomi captured our wedding day. The trip itself was simply beautiful and she gave us photos that we were thrilled about. My husband and I have looked back at these several times and have been so moved by our precious memories. Naomi got most of the shots we asked for. I would recommend preparing Naomi (beforehand) on any specific photos you MUST capture as these events can get a little crazy and busy. Thank you Naomi for not only giving us beautiful photos but getting them back to us so quickly. I think we only waited about 2 weeks to get our final product

My husband and I eloped to Maui and knew nobody on the island, so a good ol' Google search was necessary to find a photographer we loved. The preliminary search narrowed down our choices but all the photographers we initially emailed seemed curt or uninterested in doing a Very Small Wedding (literally nobody else but us went). We were referred to an elopement/small Maui weddings blog that highlighted photos, and we started quickly noticing that all photos were from a staff photographer named Naomi. Another Google search brought us Naomi Levit Photography. After the nicest email back ever,
