Aloha mai kakou!
Iʻm Mahina Choy-Ellis, proud Native Hawaiian & Samoan photographer.
With 8 years of Full-Time Photography experience, and 17 years since I picked up my first camera, I eat, sleep and breathe photography.
I bought my first camera off of Craigslit at 13 years old and never looked back. From photographing zombie-styled Senior Portraits in High-School to seeing my work published in National Geographic, LEI, Flux Magazine and beyond, my love for photography has evolved but never changed.
Concerts, Surf Competitions, Weddings, Production, Branding, Intimate Sessions and more. Iʻm your next photographer. And your momʻs too.
We connect, we plan, we daydream with you.
