What are the things I need to remember before I have my picture taken? When we talk with you to plan your shoot, we’ll help you think through the things you need to remember before your shoot. 

You want images that feel and look like you. We understand and take the time to get to know you so that you come through in the images personally and authentically. We’ll show your best self.

There are several photographers in Honolulu to choose from – who is the best for me? Our advice is always to call several and have an initial conversation. Then, follow your heart about what’s best.

You’re at a milestone moment in your life, and you’ll never have it back. We understand completely and will work with you to document the occasion in pictures you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

I’ve never done professional photos before; what if I appear awkward? One thing we do with every client is to share information ahead so that you arrive on shoot day knowing what to expect.

"Megan was a dream to work with!  

— Daniella

"Luckily we found Megan and the photos are so beautiful!! Everyone loves them, but not as much as us. She is genuinely excited and passionate about what she does.

She gave a lot of advice as to different location areas and was prepared for everything. She was also very quick to edit. My husband and I cannot thank her enough! Highly recommend."

Holly's maternity session

Holly highly recommends Megan Moura Photography for her maternity session

Oh my goodness!! Megan is truly a magical goddess in every way! I am so grateful she landed in our lives when we were in need of a photographer. My husband and I booked our maternity photoshoot with Megan while visiting Maui.

Megan flew all the way from Oahu just to make our baby-moon dreams come true! She used to live and work in Maui and knew the location so extremely well. By knowing where would be best to shoot, she helped to make the process absolutely seamless and stress-free.

She was so friendly and personable. She made us both feel so comfortable. We both appreciated her attention to details as well, small things like hair or a bunched up shirt & directing us to have the best angle.

She is a professional in every way and made our session so enjoyable and special! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Megan! We will cherish our maternity photos forever, they are absolutely breathtaking!!

Decarlas' oahu family session

Our family vacationed in Oahu during the first week of March for Spring break and decided to take advantage of the beautiful scenery by taking family photos. From my very first inquiry to meeting her in person, she was so warm and personable!

She took all of the guesswork out of selecting a location by providing beautiful choices on her website which we appreciated as we weren't familiar with the area. Megan made us all feel so comfortable and at ease during the shoot and it shows in the images she captured – pure joy! The photos are STUNNING and my entire family LOVES them.

If you are in need of a photographer in the Oahu area, she should definitely be your choice. Her work is phenomenal!

"Megan is an absolute DOLL!"

Testimonials

Laura's Family session

We are fans of journalistic/lifestyle photography. We knew we didn't want photos that were unnatural or too posed, which are the type of photos you get with photographers at the resorts.

Megan was amazing to work with, and she did a great job capturing our little family. Getting outdoor pictures with a little one can be a challenge, especially when they are sleepy.

Megan brought a toy that really captivated our 1 year old's attention, and she did a fantastic job managing all the elements during our session (wind, light, the unpredictable tide, our energy).

"We have a wide variety of images that we love!"

We Provide Everything You’ll Need …

A photographer who listens carefully and puts you first

The benefit of experience to help plan and map out your shoot

Your memories are documented; to be remembered forever

An intuitive photographer who will take the lead

Elegant, personal imagery that reflects who you are

You need the number of hours that will realistically fit everything you want into the timeline. For example, 2-3 hours is perfect for an intimate elopement photo session. The location (or locations) are factors on the timeline, the number of people to be photographed, whether there will be a mix of individual and group shots, etc. We can estimate hours firmly after hearing your goals.

All of my packages include high-resolution digital files, fully edited images, an online gallery, print rights, and my guidance throughout the planning process and the shoot day. My higher-end packages include more goodies – I’m pleased to explain more in detail on an initial call.

Editing is a photo term that describes the standard level of photo manipulations. It means I'll make your photos look amazing. This includes things like exposure, contrast, color and composition manipulations.

Retouching is another photography term covering intensive isolated manipulations such as body slimming, blemish removal, fly away hair removal, or facial reconstruction. It is the highest level of photo manipulation, and I can do it on a case-by-case basis, with an added fee of $35 per photo.

My turnaround time for shorter shots such as elopements is 1-2 weeks. Longer full-day projects will take 3-4 weeks. The duration of the shoot affects the number of images; longer shoots take more time to edit.

Yes! I own a DJI Mavic Pro drone. Let me know when you email us that you might be interested in a drone upgrade. I try to offer unique and advanced services like drones in the spirit of producing a wider range of interesting, high-quality images.

Confirming a booking (reserving my services on your selected date) requires a signed contract and down payment of 50-percent.

Yes, we can help arrange those services at an additional fee based on the stylists you select. The pricing varies by project (the number of people in your short who need services) and the artist.
