Welcome to Hawaii Island Retreat, where the perfect place for weddings and romance awaits you. As a photographer, I have had the privilege of capturing the beauty and elegance of this natural setting. Our 50 acres of pristine ocean-view groves and intimate valley settings provide an inspiring backdrop for your Hawaiian wedding, vow renewal, or Big Island honeymoons. Located in picturesque North Kohala on Hawaii Island, our sacred and historic Hawaiian grounds are infused with mana, or spiritual energy, to bless your special day. Our dedicated wedding planner is on hand to take care of all the intricate details, leaving you free to fully immerse yourself in the romance and joy of the occasion.

“This year I had my first ever photoshoot, and I'm so glad I had it with Leah, she made me feel confident in front of the camera, had great time and photos turned out amazing!!! Thank you Leah for making my memories about Hawaii unforgettable!!! Recommend 100%”
“I purchased a photo session for my daughter-in-law as a baby shower gift, to be used for maternity or newborn photos (she chose maternity). The photos are magical - they perfectly capture their love story. Leah is a talented photographer who brings out the very best, and is so easy to work with. Both my son and daughter-in-law thoroughly enjoyed their session. If you're looking for a photographer, look no further. You won't be disappointed.”

“Leah was awesome to work with. I went in with a little vision of what I wanted my shoot to look like and she used all the natural elements in my favor. The outcome of the photo shoot gave me several awesome options to choose from for my song release. I highly recommend Salt Drifter Photography for your photo needs in Kona.”
