Pam and Trevin | Na 'Aina Kai Botanical Gardens Wedding Ryan & Denise Photography Blog | Phoenix Wedding Photographer | Scottsdale Wedding Photographer | San Diego Wedding Photographer | Portland Wedding Photographer

The first time we met Pam & Trevin, it was on the day of their engagement session. They had recently gotten engaged and wanted some photos to celebrate even though they hadn’t really made any plans for their wedding yet. They were both kinda nervous about having photos taken, but their sweet friend Renate (one of our wonderful past #RDBrides), raved about how much she loved working with us so they figured they’d give it a shot. From the moment we met, the four of us felt like old friends. Their desert engagement session turned out to be one of our favorites ever! And of course, we knew it was a match made in heaven when they asked if we could all take a selfie at the end of our time together! When they emailed us a couple months later and asked if they could bring us to Kauai to capture their wedding day, it didn’t take much arm twisting to get us to book a flight and join them in paradise to celebrate!

Pam & Trevin are the very best kind of people – joyful, kind, thoughtful, quick to laugh and great huggers – exactly the kind of people we LOVE. On top of that, they exude the deep sweetness of two people who know without a shadow of a doubt, that they’re meant to be together. Their every interaction is filled with adoration, respect and joy. Did I also mention that they’re ridiculously good looking? LOL! Walking alongside these two on their wedding day was not just an honor, it was an incredible joy that we’ll never forget!

In all honestly, we would have loved capturing Pam & Trevin’s wedding no matter where it took place, but the fact that we were surrounded by the beauty of Kauai just made it even more special. We pretty much felt like the luckiest photographers in the world when we arrived at the Na ‘Aina Kai Botanical Gardens. The photo ops were ENDLESS – from the gorgeous private beach to the lush green gardens to the magical hardwood forest – it was nothing short of a DREAM. And the BEST PART? We got to explore the whole place alongside such an amazing couple who trusted our vision and gave us the time we needed to truly give them the stunning memories they deserve! Seriously guys – BEST DAY EVER!

Ok! Enough gushing – let’s get to these photos! Pam & Trevin, you guys are THE BEST! Thank you for the gift of your friendship and the honor of capturing these once in a lifetime moments. We hope you guys love these images as much as we do.
