More about Jayson T....

What do you love about your job?

What I love most about photography is that every assignment is different. I enjoy meeting people, figuring out what makes each situation unique, and creating images that tell their story. Whether I am photographing a wedding, family, business, restaurant, or event, I still enjoy the challenge of finding the right light, moment, and composition to make a strong photograph.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

Over my career, I have photographed weddings, families, portraits, corporate events, headshots, restaurants, food, and commercial assignments. I try to make every shoot special by getting to know the client's vision, keeping the atmosphere relaxed, looking for genuine moments, and using lighting and composition to make the photographs stand out.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

More than 35 years of professional photography experience, with training at ArtCenter College of Design and extensive work in weddings, portraits, events, commercial photography, food, and editorial assignments throughout Hawaii.

A fun fact about this photographer

Outside of photography, I’m very involved with raising and breeding Japanese Ranchu goldfish and serve as Vice President of the Hawaii Goldfish and Koi Association. It’s a completely different world from photography, but both require patience, attention to detail, and an appreciation for beauty.
