Jason's work sets high standards. When it comes to wedding photography, there's a whole lot of average, and it's easy to make the wrong choice. Not with Jason!! You can guarantee that you will have the best moments of your wedding (or any other occasion) captured. They are so professional and so fun to work with. Right the moment of booking them, every planning detail went smooth. Him and his team have great experience and creativity to deliver high-quality photos for all of you. We lost count of the numerous compliments we received from our friends and family who commented on how amazing he was. Jason direct the group photos without being intrusive or overbearing and throughout the day he blended in to the scene perfectly. He used every lighting opportunity he could find to capture a range of photos, and was constantly on the look out to use the scenery and grounds of the venue to the fullest. https://www.instagram.com/jasonqtranstudio/ read more

What I like about Jason is he has an artistic eye for photography. It's evident in his vibrant color and dramatic black & white shots from his portfolio, that he can create extraordinary compositions from an ordinary scene. I'm convinced he is a magician. I originally found out about Jason from my cousin, whose wedding he shot several years prior. When it was my time to get married, I didn't hesitate in choosing Jason because I couldn't find anyone else that compared to him. My husband and I are grateful to Jason for capturing priceless memories of us that we'll cherish for a lifetime. If you haven't yet, you should go follow him on Instagram. I'm not sure how it's possible, but his work keeps getting better and better. I would book him again in a heartbeat! read more

Jason Q Tran - Photographers Near Me

Jason and his staff/photography assistants were fantastic from start to finish. They shot our wedding day in NOV 2012. Why did I waited this long to write review? I was too busy looking at my timeless wedding album every other week!! You know what I mean; when you have great photos you will always want to look at them again and say "WOW... CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?" Yes, Jason made our wedding pictures feel like that every time my husband and I look at it. Not only we feel that way but also our family, friends, vendors, coworkers, including strangers always says "WOW", BEAUITFUL", "ROMANIC". They are all perfect and have received so many compliments. And I feel fortunate every time I look at my photos. From the moment I logged onto the wedding wire, looking for a wedding photographer, I could not contain my excitement. It's obvious, merely browsing the site, that Jason Q Tran is professional, inspiring, and genius. We immediately knew that this was the key to keeping our wedding memories intact for a lifetime. We were like "WE MUST BOOK HIM RIGHT NOW RIGHT NOW!!!" We contacted him the next day and booked him right away! ;) We met up Jason few times and discuss my ideas and what is I wanted, locations, poses, themes. He's very flexible, great listener, friendly, caring and passionate. He know what he's doing and love what he doing. He made us feel very comfortable. Also, he shared with us some great ideas for wedding planning. I thought that was very kind and thoughtful of him. We appreciated that a lot!!! Our wedding day, Jason and his staff arrived at hotel on time. He arranged my wedding dress, accessories, shoes, earrings in the perfect spot for him to photograph and was excited to get to work on every shot. They did not miss a moment throughout the whole day. Jason and his team treated us like we were the only two people in the world getting married. They did the traditional shots as well as some very creative and unique shots. Also, there are some great candid shots that we took without interrupt friends and family around us. Jason Q's team was all professional but still made pictures taking a fun experience. Jason was amazing and our pictures were overflowing with life. Our pictures came out in timely manner and our photos looks like it just came off from those wedding magazines!! The pictures are very high quality, modern, fresh, crisp, and natural. He captured so many magical moments and is a true professional. He is professional but personal; you can truly trust him to get the best shots of you. He will go out of his way and the extra mile to get that perfect shot! My email and phone calls (even after the wedding) are always got returned very quickly. After my wedding day, I still stop by his blog and look at his stuff. His work is addictive!! read more

Wow! We can't stop looking at our wedding photos! I was first introduced to Jason's photography a few years ago. As soon as I saw his work, I told my now-husband that if we were to ever get married, I would want no one else but Jason to shoot our wedding. We got engaged last year and were not sure about what kind of wedding we wanted. Long story short, we finally decided (almost on a whim) to elope at the Old Orange County Courthouse in downtown Santa Ana. We felt really good about our decision and kept it secret from our family and friends but we both knew we wanted to make sure that we had photographs to capture the memories from our special day. My husband called Jason, and with very little notice, we managed to make our schedules work. He agreed not only to shoot our elopement but also to be our sole witness. Jason is a total gentleman and made us feel comfortable and completely at ease. He's punctual, polite and extremely professional. Even though our ceremony was free of all the frills of a traditional wedding, his photographs transformed an ordinary Tuesday at a somewhat drab courthouse into something really special and magical for us. He documented our special day with such a unique and creative perspective and I feel like he really captured the essence of who we are as a couple. If you're looking for a more traditional take on wedding photography, look elsewhere. Jason is a natural and always stays to true his passion for his art form. PS - The guy can pin a boutonniere like a BOSS! I had some trouble with my husband's and Jason did it in like 2.2 seconds. I only pretended to do so on camera for the picture's sake. True story. Lol. read more

Most of us, as in soon to be married couples, seek out the very best photographer to capture that ceremonial day - duh dun dun dun. Well, my wife and I found that guy. Jason, job well done sir. We were searching for a wedding photographer with an artistic, non-traditional eye. Found Jason through IG hashtags, and instantly realized he was going to be our photographer. The contact was simple; and, to our luck, he was available. He emailed our contract, and we locked in our expectations. The session pricing, we felt, was well worth it and fair. You cannot go bargain hunting for a photographer, right? The day of, Jason was setup and ready when I arrived. Very polite and straightforward. We began my shoot because my bride was arriving later. He guided me very professionally. Best of all, he was patient. I was obviously disheveled it being my wedding day. Jason made it easy. We took great shots. Next, my bride arrived, and Jason continued his work. Jason captures family and friends perfectly. Again, I cannot stress how patient yet professional he was throughout the session. Jason shot posed and unposed moments seamlessly. Overall, Jason was an ideal photographer. He was patient, never rushed and personable. The photographs turned out perfect. He gave us exactly what we hoped for. Jason nailed the absolute perfect shadowing, poses, backgrounds, and moments. He exceeded our expectations. If I had any concerns, I'd say it took a bit longer to get the photos than we'd thought. We had to follow up a couple times to get an idea when we could expect our pictures. Thank you Jason for your work. And to those considering Jason, you will be pleased with your choice. read more

Photography has always been important to me growing up so when it was time to find a photographer for my upcoming wedding, I searched long and hard. I wanted someone who is passionate about their craft. I wanted someone who is technically proficient. I wanted someone with an eye for details - someone that sees the special moments in a unique perspective/angle. Furthermore, I wanted someone that has the right personality, someone that my fiancée and I could relate to and feel comfortable with. Jason clicks all of the boxes. Unfortunately, Jason was booked on our wedding day, but thank goodness he was available for our engagement shoot! From the moment I called to book our appointment with him to the finished product, Jason made everything seamless. He was prompt, courteous, dedicated and professional. He answered all of our questions promptly. He guided us through our wardrobe choices in order for us to look good in the setting that we were in (we had our engagement Photoshoot at Yosemite). When there were too many tourists blocking the beautiful backdrop at the iconic Tunnel View at Yosemite, Jason even hiked to a more remote location in order to find an unobstructed view to capture that special moment for us. Additionally, I had wanted to surprise my fiancée with a proposal at one of the beautiful waterfalls there. I asked Jason if he would do me a favor and capture that moment for me on video. Not only did Jason happily oblige, he brought a videographer in order to make sure the video was as perfect as possible! I could go on...If you were to go onto his website and look at his blog, the gorgeous photos speak for themselves. However, Jason is more than just a great photographer. He genuinely is a good guy who truly cares that you have a great experience on your special occasion. Can't recommend him highly enough! read more

Jason is amazing! I found out about Jason from my then girlfriend, now wife. =) She met Jason during a previous shoot and raved about his portfolio and artistic shots. When I contacted Jason he was very quick and responsive. It was fairly easy to get a consultation and he cleared up any unanswered questions I had. We booked Jason for both our engagement shoot and wedding. Engagement Shoot: We decided to go to santa monica pier and lacma. Jason was great! He suggested a good time to take pictures with great lighting. He coached my wife and I on how to get very natural looking shoots. Jason got many shots of us at the pier, the beach, and at the museum. After, the long day of shooting Jason was able to get us some great pictures very quickly. We absolutely loved them and we were excited to see him capture our big day together. Wedding Day: Jason came with multiple photographers. We had one photographer taking pictures of the groom and he was taking pictures of the bride. He was literally everywhere taking shots. During our cocktail hour my wife and I decided to do some more personal pictures around the city. Again, Jason helped us get comfortable and coached us on how to take natural looking photos. Jason work is amazing! I am so grateful that we were able to book him for both our engagement shoot and wedding. I would highly recommend him if you want great photographer. read more

Jason took photos for us at a corporate event. He did an excellent job and he delivered many gallery-worthy photographs. He was steadfast and worked with the flow of the evening. He was directive when he needed to be and 'in the background' getting candid photos. I will definitely use Jason again and recommend his services to anyone in need of a professional photographer. read more

We had a wedding of 200 guests and Jason killed it. Jason and his crew made me and the others feel comfortable and not rushed. Plus my friends and I are not easy people to control. We often get drunk out of control and with all the craziness he made it work. He also offers a photo-booth service, which we are so happy to have gotten. It's an open air photo booth and he even customized the print cards to match our wedding without us even knowing, which was an amazing surprise. I hate taking serious pictures... Jason and Conrad made me feel comfortable with clear directions so I don't ruin this wonderful day with my awkwardness with picture taking. read more

My wedding took place in 2007, perhaps Jason has improved since then. Professionalism: 5 stars -reliable, showed up on time, great at answering all phone calls and emails Quality: 5 stars -photo quality was gorgeous. The editing was beautiful Photographs of Inanimate objects: 5 stars -Great attention to detail. Creative Photographs of people: 2 stars - Informed Jason of angles that I did not like and angles that do not work with my face after seeing the results of our engagement photographs. Upon viewing photos of the actual wedding day, virtually all the angles I had told him not to take of our faces, he did. Not the worst photos we have ever seen taken of us, but definitely not what we had hoped for our wedding day - made requests of specific shots and locations of the wedding site I wanted to have done. Showed Jason photos of poses I wanted to capture. None of these were taken - Photos of grandparents on the groom's side were not taken. There are absolutely no photographs of my spouse's grandparents at our wedding. Numerous family members were not captured. Perhaps my expectations were too high or our photographic styles were not compatible. Were the photos bad? No. Were they great? No. Do I want to make a book out of the photos taken? No, because there were so few photos that we enjoyed. Would I recommend him to another person? I would not be opposed to recommending him, however there are several other photographer's with whom I've had more product satisfaction with . read more

Jason did such amazing job photographing 2 of my cousins' weddings that I continued to follow his blog for years knowing that one day I wanted him to be the one to photograph my wedding. That day finally came and I was needless to say, excited to finally get to work with him. Trying to keep to my research like nature, I wanted to give other photographers a chance as well. I perused around just in case some one else's work caught my eye. By the end of my research it just confirmed how much I loved Jason's work. I could probably get pretty photos from any wedding photographers who do the same default poses and shots, but that's not what I wanted. I wanted someone who can capture the in between moments and someone who can create artistic memories. I touched based with both of my cousins and they gave him great reviews. They told me about his background in graphic art/design and how he has a practiced eye for good lighting and framing. Jason photographs a wide range of weddings, everything from modest weddings to spectacular affairs and he's so easy to work with. For our Engagement session I just told Jason I wanted "modern vintage romance" and he immediately recommended a location that my then fiance and I had already been considering. The pictures were gorgeous! Let me tell ya, my husband and I are kinda nerdy, goofy people who aren't super glam but the feedback we received from these photos was overwhelming. Everything was so polished and romantic and Jason even captured the sweet candid moments. It was just beautiful highlights of our love story. For our Wedding photos, Jason continue to tell such a great story. It felt so surreal and romantic. Needless to say our wedding day was the best day of our lives and when it comes down it, in retrospect as well, we are SO fortunate to have had Jason and his team capture everything. He went through our checklist and even created artistic shots on his own. Even AFTER the wedding I forgot to ask him to photograph a particular detail and he was so accommodating and was able to get it done. Everything was received in a very timely manner so that's another great plus :) I think it helps that he has such great passion about his work and that he strives to capture thought provoking and emotional eliciting images. I'm such a fan and still continue to follow him on his blog. Highly recommended and my husband and I hope to work with him again in the future :) read more

My wife and I loved working with Jason as our wedding photographer for our April 2012 wedding. Everything about our experience was top-notch and beyond our highest expectations, including the photos, the wedding album, and -- most importantly -- how easy and fun it was to work with Jason and his associates. We were looking for a photographer with a unique style, modern vision, and impeccable command with lighting and composition. He was referred to us by our wedding planner, and upon seeing his portfolio of work, we knew immediately that we wanted to meet with him and learn more. Upon meeting him for the first time, we learned that not only is he a great photographer, but is a really awesome and fun person to work with. His enthusiasm for his work, and interest in learning more about his clients really showed through in person. This was important to us because we wanted to make sure our photographer was not only reliable and trustworthy, but also adept at making ourselves and our guests comfortable in front of the camera. This was proven true when we had our engagement session with Jason and his associates. Included as part of our wedding package, Jason went above and beyond with our engagement shoot. Eager to try somewhere new, we took a day trip with him and his second shooter. We were a little nervous/awkward with posing at first, but Jason's directions behind the camera made it much easier for us and we soon relaxed and became ourselves. Fast forward several months, and Jason and his team ensured our wedding day photography went smoothly. Jason arrived in the morning to cover the girls getting ready while his second shooter covered myself and the guys. As hectic as it was, Jason was able to capture all the critical (and not so critical, but just as heartwarming) moments. It was so easy for us to let him do all the work and capture the memories as they happened, oftentimes without us or our guests even realizing. Having now gone through our wedding, we realize in retrospect how important this was, since it allowed for natural, candid photos while also reducing the stress of everybody involved. We were very fortunate to have been able to hire Jason as our photographer, and give him our highest recommendation. He's a great photographer and a great guy. We hope our paths cross again! read more

Given that my husband and I are both camera-shy, we anticipated the process of selecting a wedding photographer to be a long, anxious ordeal since we didn't know what to expect. As with any wedding vendor, we wanted to do our due diligence and planned to meet with several photographers prior to making our decision. However, after meeting with Jason, we immediately felt at ease and decided he would be the best choice. Most importantly, he wanted to ensure that we were both comfortable in front of the camera and asked questions about our personalities, likes and dislikes to ensure he captured our best moments. We were also very impressed with his portfolio since his photographs were exactly how we wanted our own wedding to be captured. With enough on our minds on our wedding day, Jason was instrumental in getting our wedding party set up for some wonderful shots. Jason was familiar with our amazing wedding venue and had numerous ideas to incorporate the contemporary architecture, resulting in some stunning photographs. We had a really great time with Jason and his team, especially since they worked so hard to ensure that everyone was having a good time. Thank you so much, Jason! read more

Jason was Highly recommend through a family member. Upon meeting with Jason, my wife and I got a good first impression vibe about him. Judging by his work seen online and his samples provided we were highly impressed. Coming from someone with professional photo editing experience my eye caught his work. Jason has his unique perspective & point of view when taking photos. Jason takes great pride in his work and is what he truly loves to do. Photography is what he loves and mastered it and now has found fans who are inspired by his work and willing to pay him for it. This is the best kind of photographer. You truly get what you pay for, photos are for life and special moments only happen once in a lifetime. I highly recommend Jason, photos looked above and beyond what i had expected. read more

Jason Q. Tran was the best photography decision we could've made. We fell in love with his style as we were looking for a wedding photographer and absolutely loved his journalistic approach. Admittedly, I was a little nervous since his previous couples looked so "cool" and we're just not that hip. But he blew us away and perfectly captured our day with our own personalities reflected in every photo. His adaptive ability and his appreciation for unique angles and lighting created images that I know I will continue to obsess over for years to come. I can't choose a favorite image as so many of them have such a distinctive quality. Not only that, but I honestly don't even remember him being there. His team had this uncanny gift of capturing all the moments that matter while remaining so unobtrusive. It was so fun looking at the photos and seeing everything we didn't get a chance to see that day captured by such a skillful eye. Thanks, Jason and Conrad, for capturing our favorite day thus far and making us feel like the coolest kids ever. read more

When we decided to finally get serious about planning our wedding, one of the most daunting tasks was finding the right photographer for us. I really didn't know where to start and started looking through wedding wire to just see what kind of style/photographer we wanted, but after browsing at Jason's photos and blogs, I know it was he was the person I wanted to take pictures of my wedding. The pictures we saw were so natural and personally and truly capture the emotion, fun, and love we wanted to capture during our wedding. It wasn't stiff like most of the other style we saw. So we contacted Jason and from there on, it was one of the best decision we made. He was not only professional and fun to work with, he was so helpful in so many other aspects of our wedding, especially for clueless wedding planners like us - he helped us from choosing a DJ, advising us on our schedule and timeline, setting up the most awesome photo booth (the X booth), and even how to cut our cake on our wedding day! He and his assistant were just a joy to work with and almost felt like they were part of our wedding family rather than our vendors. We just received our wedding pictures and I cannot be happier. I cannot thank him enough for going above and beyond what his job was supposed to be. He even extended his committed time since our reception ran a bit later than we thought - he wanted to make sure he captured everything. Finding Jason and his team was really one of the best things we did for our wedding. Thank you, Jason - for capturing so perfectly what the day meant to us!!! read more

One word. Phenomenal. Jason has an undeniable talent and I cannot be more thrilled about my wedding and engagement photos. He has edge and is not afraid to try crazy things!! The thing I love most about Jason is that he chooses really unique angles that are unconventional yet genius. For example, he chose to shoot some photos between an upside down barstool at our engagement and it looked soooo awesome (I've attached for you to see). Jason was so accommodating our schedule and stayed late to capture the most important details. He is silent and smooth and very respectful. He made sure to remember to capture me from my best angle (I told him my left side was better and he remembered!) and even coached my husband who has a double chin how to pose (sorry babe! :-P) We had 430 guests at our wedding....I know...a bit crazy, but Jason managed to take pictures after our ceremony of guests, and throughout the night in addition to capturing all the other great moments. Would definitely recommend Jason for your photography needs if you're looking for vibrant colors and editorial-like photos. read more

A picture is worth a thousand words but Jason's work speaks billions. His eye for beautiful angles, use of natural shadows and light is impeccable and incredibly unique. He is able to feature his subjects in their natural element, candidly, and it is never "posed or typical." I know this firsthand since we were lucky enough to have him as our engagement and wedding photographer. I adored our photos, and I loved how it showed our personality, yet had that artistic edge Jason is so awesome at capturing. Personally there is no other photographer that compares, and the proof is in the pictures. read more

Jason was the BEST photographer decision we ever made. His work is truly phenomenal and we are so glad that we have such wonderful photos to relieve our wedding day. We could not have asked for better photographer. Jason came highly recommended by our brother-in-law who is also a photographer. This says a lot coming also from someone who is also a photographer. Jason is talented, passionate and a true professional. When it comes to our wedding, we considered photography to be one of the most important decisions and we booked Jason first before anything else as we truly love his work. During our engagement photoshoot which happened to be the hottest day of the year, Jason was able to make the best out of our time, despite the scorching heat. He was very professional throughout the session, tirelessly working hard to take photos from different angles and making the best out despite the ridiculously hot weather. We were so impressed by Jason's talents as he continued to guide us with such clear directions. During the wedding day, Jason brought in his team of highly professionals photographers. Together with his team, they worked their magic to capture our special moments, starting from the getting ready session up until late at night. My husband and I were so pleased at the final products and there's so many wow photos. Thank you again for such a precious way to remember our wedding day! You are truly AMAZING. BRAVO to Jason Q Tran! xoxo, Mr. and Mrs. Yakub read more

Jason created an outstanding piece of artwork out of our wedding pictures! He captured some of our most memorable moments and made some that we didn't even appreciate at the time we were celebrating.

Jason Tran is the Best!! We hired him as our wedding photographer for our September 21, 2013 wedding. We were thrilled with our pictures and were amazed with his creativity and how he went beyond our expectations! We had our wedding in Laguna Beach and he definitely captured the true beauty of the sunset. His work is very unique and we know that's what made us fall in love with him. Jason is so talented and we are so happy he was able to capture our wedding memories that we"ll cherish forever! read more

Jason! OMG! Words cannot express how amazing Jason and his team were! From the very first email, he treated myself and my husband with the upmost respect, communication and kindness! The wedding process is stressful, time consuming, and there's just so many questions that come up along the way... all which Jason was there to answer, be supportive and give the best advice. He truly was such a pleasure to work with and made us feel so comfortable! My husband and I aren't comfortable taking photos but Jason and his team made us feel like supermodels and made us feel so relaxed! His photography skills are to die for and if you're looking for artistic and wedding photos like no one else, book him! We've got a sneak peek at a couple of our photos and shown our friends and family, they are all amazed by his talents and add his responsiveness and kindness... Jason is the whole package! Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts... We are truly honored and appreciative that Jason shared and captured our special day! Love, Jodie & Carlo Goya-Rosete read more

I work in the bridal industry and I've known Jason for years. I've always been impressed by his work so needless to say it was an easy decision when it came to choosing our photographer for the big day. And of course, he did not disappoint! Jason is fun, professional, and easy to work with. He did both our engagement and wedding day photos and we loved our photos. We were so happy to have Jason for our wedding and would recommend him to anyone!!! read more

After scouring the internet in search for the PERFECT photographer for our wedding, my fiance and I found Jason Q Tran's work, and we were both INSTANTLY impressed. We absolutely loved his photojournalistic style, and we were so intrigued by how creative and innovative he was with his use of angles and lighting in his pictures. His style of photography was exactly what we were looking for. We live on the east coast, so we scheduled a skype chat with Jason so we could have some sort of "face-to-face" interaction. We knew that whoever we chose as our photographer would be following us around during the most important day of our lives, so it was important for us to be comfortable and know that we could work well with our photographer. Jason was not only professional, but we really liked how laid back and personable he was. He was also very prompt responding to emails and phone calls as well. For our engagement shoot, we flew to LA. We wanted a more urban-feel to our engagement shoot, so we left it up to him to choose spots that he thought would be best, and we had an absolute blast taking pictures in the most RANDOM places of LA. I've never felt very natural in front of a camera, so I was worried I would look a little awkward in the pictures, but Jason totally put us at ease, and our engagement shots looked absolutely amazing, but more importantly, it all looked very natural. We knew after that engagement shoot that we were in great hands for our wedding. On the day of the wedding, I barely even noticed Jason taking pictures of me as I got ready! He always knew EXACTLY where to be to capture the sweetest moments of our day. He helped us stay on schedule, and did a great job working with other vendors to make our day run as smooth as possible. And when we got our pictures back from the wedding, we couldn't have been happier. One comment I would hear time and time again, from our family and friends, is that you could see just how happy and in love we are in these pictures that Jason took. Looking back now, I realize that you invest so much time, energy and money into this one day, and sadly, the day goes by so quick! But we were fortunate and extremely grateful to have hired Jason. He not only captured the biggest moments, and the smallest moments of our day, but he was able to do that in the most creative fashion. All I know is that you get what you pay for in terms of professional photography, and Jason was absolutely the best investment we made on our wedding, hands down! read more

Jason provided our photography needs for our wedding on 11/17/12. Jason is an amazingly talented photographer and extremely courteous, patient and professional. He made us feel completely comfortable during our first meeting and we ended up sitting with him chatting about so much more than photography or weddings. Before you knew it, hours had passed. His online portfolio only shows a small fraction of his work. You have to meet with him and see more of his work, you'll be happy you did. He has a different eye for pictures and makes the process fun. He goes so far above and beyond your cookie cutter wedding photographers. His assistant and second photographer he brought with him were also so easy to work with and also made us completely comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend the Q-Booth instead of your normal photo booth. He sets up a backdrop and has a ton of fun props and just shoots away. It's not just a camera on a tri-pod either, he's moving around and catching different angles for each picture. Every picture is printed out right away, you get a link of all the pictures posted online and you get all the pictures on a disc shortly after. The Q-Booth was easily the biggest highlight of our reception. Young and old, our guests are still talking about it and we're still laughing at all the hilarious pictures. I'm sure we'll still be laughing at them 50 years from now! read more

Jason shot our wedding in 2012 and we could not have been happier. When we met him we actually cancelled all of our other appointments because my husband was certain he was the only choice for us. From that first meeting with him until the final product was delivered...he was professional, intelligent, artistic, empathetic (to the reality of wedding stress) and funny. Our pictures turned out amazing. He made us feel very comfortable and handled our crazy day - 350+ guests and a 32 person bridal party - with grace and ease. He is more than a wedding photographer - he's an artist and an amazing person who we were fortunate enough to have as part of our special day. read more

Jason photographed our April 2014 wedding wonderfully. His artistic eye has a way of catching not only moments but the surroundings that compliment and create the moments. We were very impressed with our wedding book. Jason was very easy to work with and understood exactly what we were looking for in our wedding photos. We are so grateful for his efforts capturing memories on our special day, Jason has a beautiful way of telling a story through his artwork. read more

Jason shot our wedding photos for a destination wedding last year. He was incredibly professional throughout the entire process! After being a part in other weddings, I can say that working with Jason removes so much stress as you'll never have to worry about shots being captured - he gets everything without you even realizing it! His creativity will surprise you, and he will make you feel at ease, allowing for natural and amazing shots. I couldn't recommend anyone else for your special day. read more

Yes, there are many good photographers out there, but Jason Q Tran rises above to be in his own category of talent. He's that rare combination of being extremely talented and humble with a level of creativity that's truly inspiring. I say all these things with confidence because 1) I am also a photographer and so I have seen the work of many photographers and Jason's style stands out. He continuously strives to challenge himself by finding new perspectives and creating unexpected images.He surveys the scene and sees it in a way that's different from everyone else. 2) It's been about 6 months since we shared our engagement photos and my friends and family are STILL giving us compliments on the images. They were so impressed, they shared them with friends....who ended up sharing with their friends and so on. Compliments ranged from "he really captured your affection and personalities" to "you two look like you're in a vodka ad or Vogue magazine." 3) I can't stop looking at Jason's images...not just the ones he took of my husband and I, but just his work in general. I was a fan of Jason's before my now-husband and I even started dating so when it came time to look for a wedding photographer, the decision had already been made. We still looked at other photographers but we kept coming back to Jason. These days many wedding images start to all look the same but Jason made every couple look like a million bucks in their own way. Once we hired Jason as our photographer, I was impressed by how collaborative the whole process was. He was open to our crazy ideas (like shooting us on a gondola) and executed them in a way that was beyond what we could have ever hoped for. I still remember the first time I saw his preview of our engagement session; it immediately confirmed that we made the right decision and we just loved the image so much. In short, if you want authentic, creative, unique, unforgettable images and total professionalism, Jason Q Tran is your photographer. read more

Jason was very professional and willing to adapt to different situations. He had a variety of ideas for our engagement photos location. We went to a place he suggested (HB channel by PCH and Brookhurst) and the pictures came out beautiful. There were a variety of shots in our engagement and wedding photos that kept the memories lively. We had a non- American wedding with multiple locations and Jason was flexible with the itinerary.

If you are looking for a top notch artist and not a regular photographer, then you have found it in Jason. As an amateur photographer, I can appreciate the fact that he doesn't rely heavily on photography gimmicks and equipment. His photos take natural lighting and ambient lighting into major consideration. He uses the shadows, with heavy influences from chiaroscuro paintings, to shape his subjects in flattering ways. His photo compositions are spectacular. He composes his images in a fashion that accounts for background and foreground lines. He also uses shadows and reflected images in such a unique manner that his subjects almost render themselves out of the photo frame. The powerful imagery unfolds in a manner that not only flatters the subject but it tells a powerful story. I found him a few years ago after well-known photographer Zach Arias reviewed Jason's web-blog. The positive review of Jason's webpage intrigued me and I noticed Jason was local. After browsing his webpage, the emotions evoked from his photography alone was the main reason I chose him as a photographer years before I got engaged. Once I got engaged, I knew that I wanted his artistic skills. The quality of return on the photos themselves is well worth it. I absolutely hate looking at photos of myself but I can't stop looking at some of the photos he took of me. My family can't stop complimenting the photos he took. His photos from my engagement make me forget that the photos themselves were taken in a parking lot and not a field! His services are reasonable and he is a very flexible vendor. He was even more helpful than our wedding planner! He is always up for trying new things and testing out new ideas so don't be afraid to make suggestions. I wanted to try some different bindings, different cover materials and different designs and he was completely up for testing new ideas. He wouldn't settle for less than stellar quality. I can't recommend and praise him enough! read more

We found Jason on the Fearless Photographers website. I went there because we were looking for a photographer with a unique eye and for more candid photos than posed shots. We chose a package with an engagement session, more to get comfortable with the camera and being posed. I do think it helped to have this session with Jason and the pictures turned out wonderfully. We ended up using one of our engagement photos as our "guestbook" and had guests sign on the mat around the photo. The day of the wedding, Jason and his additional photographers and assistant were relaxed which helped to put us all at ease. We did not even give Jason a "shot list" other than making sure we got family pictures with both sides of the family. We wanted to get candid shots that showed the emotions of the day. We are very happy with how the photos turned out. There are many beautiful and unique photos as well as some great candid ones that capture us, our families, and our friends. The photos are exactly what we were hoping for and we will treasure them for years to come. Wedding was on 9/7/2013; 88 guests read more

Jason was incredible to work with from Day 1. When we stumbled upon his blog, we knew we wanted him. My wife and I are really picky about our photography and loved everything that Jason created. Jason was very professional and very easy to talk to. I liked how he listened to what we liked and disliked before introducing his own creative ideas. Although I was coming from the East Coast and wifey was coming from Norcal, Jason made it easy to meet up in Socal for our engagement photo session. Jason was always extremely cool and confident during our engagement photo session and wedding day. He exudes this confidence that made us feel really comfortable. Jason was our first vendor we ever booked, and we are glad we got him. He worked well with the rest of our vendors during our wedding and his second shooter Ari was also awesome. They worked so well together, it was like magic! Wifey and I felt like a king and queen throughout the day b/c of Jason. Although our wedding day timeline was a bit tight and involved some complicated and changing logistics (wedding day will never go as precisely planned), Jason was able to work with our awkward logistics and improvised well. Our photos turned out absolutely amazing. We are so happy with them. Jason was the best decision we made for our wedding (besides saying "I do", of course). Our friends and family absolutely love our photos. Although they were great photos, wifey and I think the ones Jason posted on his blog weren't even the best ones he took from our wedding. That's how good he is. Stop thinking and just give Jason a call. read more
