Corey McCarley and Son

Meet Corey

Father, surfer, golfer, and self-taught photographer, based on the beautiful Big Island of Hawai’i. If you were to ask, most people would describe me as charismatic, adventurous and playful. Most of my shoots turn into me becoming the third wheel you've always needed but just didn't know it. I travel the world photographing epic, and emotional moments that tell stories. We're all here to tell a story, mine is just through my lens.

  • Lisa & Evans

    "I was looking for a photographer during my stay in Maui and came across Corey who captured the most amazing shots for my engagement shoot. Corey was extremely kind, patient, had many great ideas, and was quick to respond throughout the entire process. My fiancé and I highly recommend him and would hire him again!"

  • Mary & Delson

    "11/10 would recommend if you're looking for a local photographer who is passionate and excited! He will make your visions come to life while also directing you for the best outcome. Im beyond pleased with the service provided and how the pictures came out. Worth every minute of your time"
