Jason Deng Photo

The Editorial Take

Jason Deng's background is Bay Area creative photography, cars and travel and people, and he brought that experimental streak with him: double exposures, unusual compositions, and playful techniques show up in his wedding work where most photographers play it safe. Based on Oahu, he shoots weddings, elopements, and engagements with a candid, engaged approach, and he serves a clientele that stretches from Hawaii to Japan. He speaks Japanese, which makes him one of the few photographers in this directory genuinely equipped for Japanese destination couples, a significant slice of the Waikīkī wedding market. The fit is couples who want energy and a little visual invention in their gallery, and for Japanese-speaking couples planning an Oahu wedding from abroad, he should be one of the first calls.
