I'm SO happy I chose JTangProductions for my brand shoot!…read more Jamie created a vision board for me beforehand, helped bring my ideas to life, and somehow made everything come together even better than I imagined. From styling the props to letting me switch up my blazer that she provided, every detail felt so intentional. She also coached me through my poses, which made me feel so comfortable and confident throughout the entire shoot. And the shots she captured with my model?! AMAZING. She incorporated her so beautifully into my brand vision. She is incredibly patient, creative, and such a perfectionist. You can truly tell she cares about the little details, and your photos will come out even better than you imagined! I'm OBSESSED with how my brand shoot turned out. If you're thinking about booking her, DO IT!

Also, promises free children mini session as a token of appreciation. But once you vote and try to schedule a session she comes up with nothing but excuses!!

Very disappointed with her customer service. Unprofessional…read more Tried to book her for a family holiday shoot for 2020 Christmas. She initially responded quickly, but as the date got closer responses would be further apart. Spent money on getting the families haircut, purchasing haku lei, and clearing schedules not only for my family but my sister/moms family. She didn't respond to questions or even have a location set up until a week before shoot was scheduled. The funny thing is she actually texted pictures of location options 2 days before the shoot was to be done, but many of my questions were still left unanswered. I guess she didn't need my business, but in return costed my family and I money in services done in preparation for a ghosted photo shoot.

I recently took some drone lessons from Alex. It took a while to get time but it really wasn't his…read morefault. You need the optimal conditions and I valued that he made sure that the weather was perfect for my first time practicing flying my drone. My husband got me a drone about three years ago for my birthday or Christmas. It was just poor timing on his part because he gave it to me the same year we had a baby. I guess he didn't figure that having a baby would take up 100% of your time and leave no time for drone flying. Well she's three now and a lot more independent so we decided to open our drone box. Lesson #1: don't be like me and open your box three years later. We had a few batteries that wouldn't charge up because it was sitting idle for so long. Alex gave me some good recommendations of what to do and who I could possible take the batteries to check them out. I met Alex at Kawainui Model Airplane Field. I have never been there but it was a great place to learn. It was a wide open area perfect for people who are just learning. Just in case they don't know how to move their controls. Alex was a good instructor. He told me about the rules of flying and how to be cognizant of the environment around before flying. He had me do several tries of the different controls. It was a little confusing at first but he was patient. I didn't get it but he helped me understand it better by putting it into analogies. Then I kept thinking of the analogy to help me remember the controls. I learned how to control it in all directions and take a selfie. I'm glad that I took this course. My husband was super excited that I finally got to use my drone. So I showed him what I learned in class and he's hooked too. Thanks Alex for the great lesson!

When it comes to getting those perfect family pictures, you can't be anything but choosy to capture…read morea perfect moment. Particularly a shoot with 5 kids, no easy task. I came across an ad on Facebook's Military Buy, Sell, & Trade. I liked the portfolio shown and reached out to Alexey to inquire on pricing and scheduling details. Response time was very quick and professional and pricing was very reasonable. *Note: A deposit will need to be put down.* Honestly I think more people in the service industry should do this. Think about it, it's their livelihood and if you cancel they missed on having someone one else in that slot. Alexey was so helpful in giving ideas for locations and best places/timing to capture my kiddos. We scheduled on a Friday for that Monday. A quick turn around and I was super excited yet cautious just not knowing much feedback for this photographer. I did keep my faith and it paid off! :) Alexey was prompt and sooooooo easy to work with! He was very patient with the kids, was accepting to my ideas and yet some wonderful ones of his own. He took the time to give me a wide variety to choose from and get the kids in raw moments as well as "staged." We had a great time doing the shoot, tons of giggles and smiles. Alexey was SUPER quick to turn around the images for me to choose for edit, like 24 hours or less quick. There were over 500 images to go through, picking just 10-15 was no easy task. I couldn't be more grateful for that many pictures though, he really took a lot of time for a great deal! I ended up choosing a bit more than the 15 for the extra fee and it was sooo worth it, still such a bargain! The edited photos came back quickly, and the fortunate part, due to the great job the first go around, no edits were really needed. The photos are all throughout my house and up to date, finally! Thank you, Alexey, for everything! I can't wait to come back for more sessions!!!

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work with Lindsey. Her brand immersion is next…read morelevel! It was so much more than I could've ever imagined! In our first meeting, the insights she shared with me on my gene keys gave me massive breakthroughs, and all the information she shared with me on the research she did on my business before we met was priceless! She shared with me what she thought was amazing and so many incredible ideas that I can use to make it more powerful. From advice on my social media to guidance on messaging, the value she provided is extensive, and I'm still integrating them into my business. She gave me a safe place to be vulnerable and uncover sides of myself that were suppressed. It was incredible to be able to work on those pieces and then show up for the shoot in my new energy, and she was able to capture that new power through her photos! She is incredible, the way she sees people and brings out their magic! She also helped me to feel so safe during the shoot to play with my new power and to own it and claim it. She is incredibly supportive and coaches you the entire way. I can't believe how amazing the photos are! They have brought my brand to the next level, and I'm already seeing the difference her images are making in my business as well as in my confidence! I am incredibly grateful because I know this is just the beginning of the results that are showing up from working with her! If you are thinking of working with her, I would suggest booking her right away because the only thing you'll have wished is that you worked with her sooner!

We did family photos with Lindsay and they by far are our favorite family pictures we have ever had…read moredone. They were organic, and exactly what we wanted. We basically live at the beach and on the waves, so we wanted fun beachy pictures that showed just that. Lindsay captured everything perfectly. She was amazing with our very sassy girls. We will be recommending her to everyone!

I found Marella through Yelp to help me take my maternity photos a month ago so it is only fitting…read moreI write her a review on Yelp after my experience! I was looking for someone who was reasonably priced and fun/reliable to work with while we were on our babymoon in Oahu. Enter Marella. She was super fast and responsive to my emails, sending me price packages and suggestions of where I could take photos based on where I was staying in Oahu. Since Marella herself is based in North Shore and there is a travel fee for her to go farther out, she mentioned to me a few of her associates and where they could take pictures with no travel costs. At first I was considering taking photos in Kailua or Lanikai since I love the aqua blue of the waters there, but Marella ended up giving me more recommendations of where we could go that was closer to our side of the island. We ended up going with her associate Michelle after looking through sample galleries of her associates' work and based on the pictures I liked from Michelle's gallery, Marella made more recommendations of where to go and what time of day to get the effect I wanted. She was never pushy for me to commit and offered me plenty of suggestions even before I booked her associate! Booking an associate is slightly cheaper than booking Marella, but she still does all the coordinating and the editing. The day before the shoot I texted Michelle to check in and made sure we were meeting at the agreed upon spot. Michelle actually wanted to meet further down the beach so it was a good thing I did check in! We had a lot of fun with her and felt very at ease during our photo session! She ended up taking a little longer than an hour because we were having fun and she had some ideas she wanted to try and we never felt rushed. Michelle would also adjust my hair or if anything looked kind of out of place and coach us when she needed to get the right angles to show off the bump. She was very professional and fun to work with and helped us incorporate a few props and specific photos I wanted! After the session, Marella did check in with us to see how it went and told us she would keep us posted on the edits. What I thought was pretty nice about her package was that with the associate package, we got to pick out 30 from our fully edited gallery, or pay an additional amount per photo, or buy the whole gallery for another $100. I think because Marella edits the whole gallery for you to choose from, her post production time ends up being longer than some other photographers. She originally said 4-5 weeks but because I was having a baby shower sooner that I wanted to use some of the photos at, she managed to get me the gallery at 3 weeks. We bought the entire gallery for the extra $100 and got almost 150 photos!! It was totally worth the extra money since I liked almost all the photos! I really appreciated her trying to figure out what I wanted as a client and being flexible to fit that. I wouldn't mind using her and her associates again in the future if I were in Oahu and needed a photo session. And I found her prices very reasonable and her work to be reliable and professional! A few of my friends who are from Hawaii even asked me to tell them more about the photographer because they liked the photos :) Thank you Marella!!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about our family photo session with Rita during our vacation!…read moreFrom the moment we met her, Rita's warm and friendly personality put us all at ease. She has an incredible ability to connect with children, and our little ones were laughing and genuinely smiling throughout the session -- no forced smiles here! Rita was patient, engaging, and made the experience so fun that our kids didn't even realize they were "posing" for photos. She has an eye for those perfect candid moments, and the way she used natural light and scenery made every shot beautiful. She was able to capture the kids' true personalities and the special bond in our family. These are memories we will treasure forever. The quality of the photos, the memory book, and the keepsake box were second to none. If you are looking for a photographer who combines technical skill with an incredible ability to make you feel comfortable, Rita is the one. Thank you, Rita, for giving us such beautiful photos from our trip!

We first did my maternity shoot with Rita and I knew we were going to have a great time from our first phone conversation! She is so patient and considerate. I am plus size and it's not easy to find someone who is good at capturing larger bodies in a flattering way, RITA CAN!!! Which is so nice! I felt so comfortable and beautiful in my photos. I am so grateful to her for that! The next greatest part was she included our pup Rose in the photos! 4 weeks ago I gave birth to our little Quinn and we got her photoshoot just before she was 2 weeks old. Rita was so gentle and sweet with her and found such amazing backdrops and props for her. I was even able to breastfeed in the middle of the session! She even was happy to incorporate the quilt made by my husband's grandmother and the blanket with elephants to represent my grandmother. So magical. I can't wait to continue working with Rita, we got her "Grow with Me" package for Quinn and I am looking forward to the magic we will create!

Staci is AMAZING!

We've used Staci for our extended family photos too. We have a big family and Staci was very thoughtful in how she positioned all of us and made sure everyone felt comfortable. She was so organized and professional. She's also great with kids! She went above and beyond setting up the perfect backdrop and scene for my one year old daughter. She's fun to work with, so getting my one year old to smile was easy. Aloha Hawaii Photography did a great job capturing my engagement, wedding, family, pregnancy, and now my toddler. I definitely recommend this company for any of life's special events!
