Dan had a plan.
And like any good plan, it required a little misdirection, a breathtaking setting, and just the right amount of magic.
Bianca thought they were just here for a portrait session—just the two of them, soaking in the beauty of Makena Cove, the waves rolling in, the sky painted in soft blues. Simple. Easy. A day to capture memories. Little did she know it was about to turn into a Maui proposal portrait!
And then she turned around.
And there he was. Down on one knee. Ring in hand. Looking at her like she was the only thing in the world.



Cue instant surprise. Like, eyes-wide, hands-over-mouth, heart-pounding, what-is-even-happening-right-now levels of shock. Bianca’s expression said it all—pure joy, pure disbelief, pure this is actually happening! And of course, the only possible answer spilled from her lips: Yes!
The best part? They took their time with it. No rushing, no fast-forwarding through the magic. They savored every second—the way the ocean breeze wrapped around them, the way Dan couldn’t stop smiling, the way Bianca kept staring at her brand-new, sparkling bling, as if confirming that yes, this was real.










And then, their complete Maui proposal portrait. Carefree, sun-kissed, so effortlessly in love. Their energy was infectious—laughing, twirling, stealing glances, just existing in their perfect little bubble of happiness. The golden Maui light bathed them in warmth, and the world felt like it had conspired to give them the most beautiful moment possible.
Because that’s exactly what it was—beautiful.
Dan’s plan? Flawless. Bianca’s reaction? Priceless. Their love? Forever. This was just the beginning of forever!




Congrats, Dan & Bianca—this was everything. Mahalo for chosing Karma Hill Photography!
