We are so excited that you are interested in choosing Lia & Stu | Photographers to document your big day! We believe in real moments and capturing your connection. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.
We believe in images that are begging to be printed, placed in beautiful frames and hung on walls for years to come.
We started shooting weddings in Fiji back in 2011 after moving here from Hawaii. While trends, have come and gone, we still strive to capture timeless images that will never go out of style. Our hope is that the only thing that will give away the time period of your wedding is the styles of hair, clothing etc and not a trendy editing style. Our editing style is natural and classic. When we pick up our cameras, we strive to create beautiful and emotive images that tell a story and showcase the beauty of both the people in the images and the stunning destination you've chosen for your wedding!

Finding Malia & Stu really was the best thing we did when we visited Fiji. They took us into the highlands for an adventurous & fun shoot and we knew we picked the right people to help us create memories on our wedding day. Fast forward 6 months to our wedding day and the results speak for themselves. Malia and Stu are incredible, the way they work together, they are kind and so much fun to be around and made our day so much more relaxing. We love our wedding photos and will cherish them forever, I find myself flipping through the album reminiscing on the best day. Highly recommend Malia & Stu hands down.
Incredible, Kind & fun!

Malia exceeded every expectation! This trip to Fiji was to celebrate our love and LIFE together for 30 years and counting. Malia did such a beautiful job of capturing the genuineness of the life we’ve built together, our personalities, and our gratitude for each other. Our age is showing with wrinkles that line our smiles and figures less youthful than we once had. But after 30 years…we know that LOVE is all the matters. I’m so glad we had these photos taken. Thank you Malia for capturing US perfectly. We will cherish these photos and the memories behind them forever! You truly have such a gift Malia! We are so thankful you shared it with us!
Exceeded Every Expectation!

I can’t recommend Malia highly enough! She was beyond professional, thoughtful, and attentive for our elopement in Fiji. Her underwater wedding pictures are absolutely breathtaking, unique and cherished memories we have for the rest of our lives. If you’re considering a photographer, absolutely book Malia!
Breathtaking, Cherished Memories

Worth a million stars. We had the most incredible experience with our underwater photo shoot with Malia. She was incredibly patient and guided us during the shoot with so much ease. We had so much fun, and as a result have so many amazing photos! If you have any hesitation about having an underwater photo session with Malia & Stu, don’t hesitate. TRUST ME, it will be the best thing you will do in Fiji and the best investment. It will be an experience you will cherish and incredible photos to have. It will be so worth it.

REVIEW NO. 4 of 4
We’re big believers that images aren’t meant to solely exist in a digital space. One day, most likely, Instagram will be gone, your phone will be replaced and images that you can physically hold in your hand will be the best way to remember those precious moments we capture.
Think about this fact: fifteen years ago, if we had delivered you digital images, they would have been on a CD. With how quickly technology changes, it would be such a hassle to try and access those photos. Even the online galleries we deliver will eventually fade away.
One of the best ways to make your wedding memories last is in an album. These high quality handcrafted albums come in a variety of linen & leather colours. These aren’t the same albums your parents' wedding photos came in. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and look incredible on a coffee table.
Handcrafted Albums
THE PERFECT WAY TO REMEMBER YOUR WEDDING DAY
After we deliver your gallery, we'll work with you to get your album design just right. This album will become an heirloom for your family.
Albums may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day.
A Wedding album is included as part of your wedding collection. You can also order additional albums a la carte.
You can view ALL of the
album details

Definitely! The included album is the base album, you can add pages, choose from 2 larger sizes, upgrade the cover or the paper type. You can see all of the options in the link to the album guide above.
Also, please note: anytime starting today, up until 30 days after you see the initial design of your album, you will get a 30% discount on any album upgrades. Even if you add an engagement album or parent albums, you get 30% off. You can also pass that on to your parents if they would like to buy a book for themselves.
A:
I think we're going to need more pages in our album than what is included. Can we add to it?
q:
Yes! And, there is a discount for any duplicate albums that you purchase. A duplicate album means that it has to have the exact same photos/design. You can make it a different size, or upgraded pages, but the design has to be the same for it to qualify for the discount.
A:
i know our parents are going to want an album. Can they order one as well?
q:
A travel fee is added to all locations not on the main island of Viti Levu (because they require boat transfers or flights). A travel fee will apply to locations further than an hour away by road. Fees vary depending on location so ask us for more details on your specific location.
A:
When do you charge a travel fee?
q:
The number of photos delivered varies from wedding to wedding. I know how overwhelming too many photos can be, so I will deliver the best of the best from your day. After your wedding, I go through and pick out all of the keepers and edit those to deliver in your online gallery.
A:
How many photos will we receive?
q:
Yes! We offer a 10% discount on the add-on session when you book one of our wedding collections. The discount applies to the add-on session only.
A:
We're considering doing an underwater session, do you offer a discount for add-on sessions?
q:
Amazing! Next, I'll send over a contract and invoice. You'll be able to look it over, sign electronically, and make your initial payment via credit card or bank transfer. All easily and securely through the link I send over. The remaining payment will automatically be charged to the same payment method of your choice on the date in the contract so you won't even have to think about it.

We love your work and want to book. What is the next step?
