We received so many great photos, it's hard to pick my favorite! I'm so happy to have these as a souvenir of our first trip to Hawaii.

Jayson was communicative and met us at our resort, which was very convenient as we had a pretty busy itinerary. We so rarely get photos done, so thank you very much! Everyone loves them <3 -Tyann

We did not have a true wedding photographer and we decided this would be a perfect place to get some updates. This photoshoot was amazing. Jayson was perfect. He communicates regularly and effectively. He arrived at the location early to pick out some perfect spots. He even shared his location via iPhone to make finding him a painless experience. He took so much time creating the perfect shots. -Holly

Kauai is our favorite place to travel. We've visited before and knew we wanted to get professional pictures taken to capture the amazing natural beauty. Jesse picked the perfect location for our shoot. We wanted the green hills, the beach, and the lava cliffs and Jesse nailed it! -Taylor

Our daughter is an upcoming senior and wanted different pics for the senior shoot while on vacation. Jayson gave us the choice of 2 great spots (as we haven't been here before), and both looked great. We met, he was already there and ready to go. The area was awesome, making for great scenery for the pictures. He had great ideas for the shoot, but also let us include suggestions. All of the pictures turned out wonderfully, they are all beautiful! I highly recommend using Local lens and Jayson! -Lisa

We booked a shoot because we wanted to capture some memories. Our family has been through some trying times and I wanted to capture some special memories while we were on vacation in a place we love. Jayson was fantastic. He was kind and patient and captured some great moments with my family. I am excited to create a photo gallery in my home of all his wonderful photos. Thank you Jayson so very much! -Julie

Jayson was so easy to work with and got some amazing shots of our group of 12! He had good suggestions for location and timing, and went above and beyond to take the poses we wanted. Turnaround time for the photos was also fast, and he accommodated all our requests. Would definitely recommend him. -Amy

We used Local Lens for the first time when we went on our baby moon and decided we wanted a maternity shoot during the trip. Jayson was very quick to reply once we reached out via Local Lens and was thoughtful in his response to help us find a location for our shoot. He was prompt and easygoing and would work with the ideas we had as well, giving some suggestions of his own. The session was fun, and we were delighted with the selection of photos afterwards. We would use Local Lens and Jayson as photographer again if we were looking for another photoshoot on Big Island. -Jon

Jayson is not only a master behind the camera but is also a true professional. I booked him for my surprise proposal photoshoot and I couldn't be happier about my decision. It was my first time visiting Big Island, HI and Jayson helped me throughout the process be it choosing the location, helping with decor, finalizing the route for the photoshoot etc. He arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, and made us feel at ease throughout the session. He patiently listened to our ideas and incorporated them seamlessly into the shoot. When we received the final photos, we were blown away by the level of craftsmanship and artistry. Each image was a work of art, evoking the joy and tenderness we experienced during those precious moments. Jayson managed to encapsulate the emotions and create timeless memories that we will cherish forever. -Vineet

Jayson is phenomenal. My parents were celebrating their 50th anniversary with a vow renewal, surrounded by their children and grandchildren. We are rarely all in the same place, so we asked Jayson to capture some images.

We are blown away by the number of extraordinary images he captured; the perfect blend of candid, quiet moments, goofy fun, and great posed portraits.

He is very relaxed in a way that brings out the best in everyone, young and... mature. You can tell how much he cares about creating great images.

We will treasure these photos forever. We are fortunate to have worked with someone so talented. Thank you, Jayson!! -Marissa
