wedding & Couples photography for the…

Those early experiences opened my eyes to the beauty of diverse cultures, landscapes, and ways of living. I carried that passion into college, where I lived in a dorm with international students, worked at the American Asian Cultural Center, and studied abroad in Switzerland. After college, I lived in San Francisco for several years before moving to Oahu. Through all of these journeys, I realized how much I cherish documenting the unique stories found in every corner of the world. Today, I'm honored to offer couples photography that captures love stories that cross borders and bring people together.

Destination wedding photography combines two of my passions—love and travel. I love traveling so much that I made it my job. Now, I get to capture people’s love stories all around the world!

My excitement for travel started as a child, sparked by my immigrant parents' Cambodian roots and our extended family scattered across the globe. Every year, we’d embark on road trips to visit my dad’s family in Canada, and every few years, we’d journey halfway around the world to reconnect with our family in Cambodia. 

Hi, I'm Emily

Brooke & Rob

She has a gift for capturing the most beautiful and intimate moments, and her ability to make us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera is unmatched. Not only are her photos stunning, but the entire experience of working with Emily was seamless and enjoyable. She was professional, responsive, and accommodating throughout the entire process, and her friendly and warm personality made us feel at ease from the very beginning. We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Emily and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and dedicated photographer. Thank you, Emily, for capturing our special day in such a magical way.

Emily’s attention to detail, creativity, and passion for her craft truly shines through in every photo she takes.

I'm recommending Emily to everyone I know at this point! Emily is so talented, kind, friendly, and patient! My fiancé and I had the best time working with Emily. She's communicative and very organized, so the planning leading up to our engagement photoshoot and the photoshoot itself went so smoothly! This was our first ever professional shoot, so we were nervous and didn't know what to do at first. However, Emily guided us every step of the way to make sure we captured all the moments we envisioned and more. We've also asked her and her team to come to California to photograph and do content creation for our wedding, and I'm so excited to work with them again because I know they're going to capture the most beautiful photos for us again! Thank you again, Emily!

1000/10 for Emily and her team!

Emily initially did our engagement shoot in Hawaii and we loved her so much we flew her and her team to Cabo for our week long wedding!! The photos I can’t even begin to describe how dreamy they are! Literally looks like it’s out of a magazine. Emily makes us feel so comfortable and she honestly captures all the precious moments so well even though some traditions she’s not familiar with. We love Emily and we for sure will be working with her in the future no matter where in the world!!! We love you Emily and James ❤️❤️
