Testimonials

Dzana was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING from the very beginning!! For booking, she was super flexible with working out dates and times even though I had an uncertain schedule. She also was helpful when it came to picking out locations and even went and scoped them out day of to see which location was looking better for that day based on the weather and waves since we wanted to get some water shots. Truly above and beyond. When it came time for the actual pictures - Dzana was just as amazing as she had been up to that point! She has such a fun and positive energy that makes taking pictures so enjoyable. She encourages you, tells you if your hair needs a little fixing (I mean this in the best way - I so needed and appreciated this because the wind was crazy and who doesn’t want to look the best), and she will do anything to help you get the pictures you want. We received our pictures back so quickly and are absolutely OBSESSED with them. We love Dzana and we can’t say it enough. Above and beyond. Amazing. More than that! Cannot recommend enough.

Dzana was an absolute dream to work work. We’re a family of 7 with 5 children. She was super patient and very commutative. The location she helped us pick was beyond beautiful. We trusted her with the poses and it was 100% the right choice. The pictures turned out better than I could’ve imagined. She managed to get pictures will all five children looking!!!! That can be nearly impossible, but she did it!!!! Dzana even went the extra mile to hold our 18 month old baby while she captured the last few pictures at sunset. This is the first photographer we have worked with that we’ve been 100% happy with. We will be using her in the future when we return. Thank you Dzana for capturing our family in the most beautiful, and memorable ways.

My family and I recently had the pleasure of working with Dzana for a photography session and we could not be happier with the experience. From the moment we reached out to her several months prior to our trip, she was incredibly communicative and replied back to all our questions and inquiries. In addition, she was super accommodating and understanding when our flight was unexpectedly delayed by a whole day and we ended up missing our appointment for sunrise photos. She went above and beyond and worked with us to ensure that we could still have our family photo session.   What truly stood out to us was how Dzana treated us like family. Her warm and friendly personality made us feel instantly comfortable, as if we had known her for years! She took the time to get to know us and understand our vision for the shoot, which made the entire process even more enjoyable. When we received the final photos, we were absolutely blown away at how stunning they turned out! Dzana has keen eye for detail and she was able to capture the essence of our special moments beautifully.   We cannot recommend Dzana enough! Her professionalism, flexibility, and genuine care for her clients make her a true gem in the photography industry. If you're looking for someone in Hawaii who will go above and beyond to make your experience unforgettable, look no further. Thank you so much Dzana for the wonderful memories you helped us create for our first family trip to Hawaii!

Finding a good vacation photographer can be tricky but we seriously hit the jackpot booking through Dzana! She was prompt in her commutation, gave several recommendations and options for us to choose from and worked well with our littles in our family portrait session.

After our session, she immediately sent me a list of some other beaches we may want to see before we head back home. If you’re looking to find the perfect photographer for your upcoming trip, look no further! You won’t regret booking through Dzana Photography.

Thank you Dzana for making our session go by seamlessly! I appreciate your attention to detail and making us feel comfortable! Our photos are absolutely beautiful and will live on the walls of home for years to come!

This is absolutely reflected in the quality of her work!

My fiancé and I recently got engaged and we knew we wanted to have our pictures done professionally while on vacation. Dzana was AMAZING from our very first conversation. I told her it was our first time and we discussed a few ideas and feel for the shoot. Dzana not only recommended a beautiful, quiet place for us to take pictures but also made absolute art out a slightly cloudy morning. We are in love with what she captured and will cherish these pictures forever. She was quick with communication, made us feel extremely comfortable during the shoot and we received our photos back almost instantly. If you’re looking for a photographer on Oahu, Dzana is the best! We can’t recommend her enough, her kindness and professionalism is out of this world. Should we ever return to this beautiful island, we will absolutely be working with her again. Xoxo, Hannah & Nolan

In Love with these photos!! Dzana was just incredible throughout the whole experience. She was very responsive, answered All my crazy questions about locations, etc. She sent me pictures of several different locations to consider for our sunrise photos, and was honest with me about the pros and cons for each one. We ended up choosing the perfect spot and the perfect time thanks to her extensive knowledge of the entire island. She genuinely cares about her clients and wants to capture that dream Hawaiian photo you’ve had stuck in your head since you first started planning this dream vacation! 🌺 Thank you so much Dzana for this once in a lifetime experience for us. You captured that beautiful Aloha spirit we felt since we stepped off the plane. These beautiful pictures will hang on the walls of our home and I will think of you every time I look at them (which will be often!!) ❤️

We booked Dzana for our family photo shoot while we were on vacation in Maui. We were very pleased with her work both during the shoot and when we received our pictures. The pictures were amazing! The wind was strong during the shoot and she knew how to position us to minimize the hair blowing and maximize the lighting on the beach. She made everyone feel comfortable and she did candid shots of the kids that captured the joy they had on the beach. Highly recommend! 10/10!!

Dzana was amazing. She was great to work with me when scheduling the shoot. She gave me plenty of ideas and advice for our pictures. She knew how much these meant to me and that they are an investment. When it was our shoot day we ended up getting rained out and the road flooded so we had to turn around and go another way. Which meant we missed sunrise. She immediately re-booked us and our pictures turned out amazing. I highly suggest her not only because she’s professional but our pictures turned out dreamy.

Overall, I would highly recommend Dzana to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer. They truly went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the final product, and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, Dzana

The photos are amazing!! Dzana drove to the other side of the island, hours before we met to ensure that we had the perfect location and angles to make our engagement even more special. She was professional, awesome in suggesting poses and even took us to a special location that turned out great. She knows the best spots for photos on Oahu!

Dzana was wonderful. She responded to my inquiry right away, and even texted to make sure I received the email (it was sent to junk!). We scheduled the photo shoot quickly, and she confirmed a few times leading up to the date. She made my husband and I feel comfortable during the shoot, and went above and beyond to make sure we got the good shot! I love the way she edited our photos. They were sent within days  and we couldn’t be happier! 

I’ll be texting you next December to take pictures of us with baby Jordan!! 💙💙

We loved the experience and was very comfortable taking pictures with Dzana. She showed us how to pose and directed us, very professional! Even though the weather was unpredictable the photos turned out amazing and she was very flexible to do another shoot or reschedule with us if we wished. The photos came back so quickly we were impressed and we got to enjoy looking through them even before our vacation ended. We highly recommend booking a shoot with her!

-I & J

Dzana is an absolute amazing person! Her work speaks for itself. We booked last minute and had to push back the date and she was understanding which is very appropriated. She knows what she’s doing and handles everything and we just went along because we knew we were in great hands . Dzana is super sweet and has a beautiful soul. As a couple who never took professional pictures we were so lucky to have her as our first photographer. We will definitely be booking her for all our Hawaii vacations to come.

I reached out to Dzana about scheduling a photo shoot for our family vacation. I told her my vision was on a beach and for the photos to scream Hawaii! She definitely out did herself. She picked the most perfect beach for me and my family. The photos were so crisp, clear, and edited to perfection! I highly recommend Dzana for all of your photography needs! I will cherish the photos she took of us forever. We can’t wait to visit again and to schedule another session with her!
