Brandan was pleasure work with he always made sure our communication was on the same page with updated phone calls and text especially knowing our time differences. He had a lot of beautiful recommendations to where I should choose but I ended up going with Kualoa beach, Hoomaluhia botanical garden and Kakaako graffiti walls. He spent his time with us throughout the day and was patient with all the crazy weather. Very professional and we got to learn about his photography background as well personally while shooting. We love how our photos came out as well as our friends and family. We look forward to more shoots with him in our future.

We just got the photos of our wedding and they are amazing. Brandan and his team were highly recommended by my sister who did their wedding 5 years ago and till this day, they still continue to do phenomenal quality work. From the wedding planning till the day of the wedding (7/23/22), Brandon always made himself available if we had any questions. Brandan, Sean, and the team made it fun for my wife and made us felt comfortable though out the photo shoot. From the ceremony at Magic island to the wedding reception at Halekulani. Everyone at the wedding loved the same day edit video that they had put together that day. Thanks again PuremediaHawaii for your professionalism and outstanding work. We highly recommend them.

There isn't a negative thing I could say about this amazing team! Cool, Funny, Relaxed and full of amazing ideas. By sunset it was freezing and starting to rain but they were so kind and professional capturing very beautiful photos of my husband and I. I highly recommend them to anyone needing any type of photography in Oahu.

See all

Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also made us feel comfortable and captured genuine, beautiful moments with the most amazing scenery! We loved our maternity photos so much that we knew we had to come back and recreate them--this time with our toddler. Last month we booked her again and it truly felt like a full-circle moment for our family. She captured it perfectly all over again and she was so sweet with my toddler too - he loved her! The entire experience from first communication to photoshoot day was seamless, fun, and easy going. She also has such a great eye for detail! We're beyond grateful to have these memories captured and for her! Thank you Krystal Highly recommend!

She is so warm, communicative and a wonderful person all around. Our interactions never felt merely transitional, you could feel her love and passion for creating these magical memories on (digital) "film". Our session was everything you could ever ask for. Not once did it feel forced or awkward and that is evident in our photos. Loved this experience so much and we are so thankful we found Krystal.

From the moment we met her, she was so…read moreeasy to work with - calm, kind, and just someone who instantly makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is not always easy). The photos turned out even better than I imagined. She didn't just capture how everything looked - she captured how it felt. The love, the little in-between moments, the natural joy of the day... it's all there. And somehow, she made the already stunning Oahu backdrop look even more beautiful. Also, shoutout to her patience because the wind was aggressively fighting my bangs the entire time, and she handled it so seamlessly without ever making it feel stressful or rushed. Genuinely couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. If you're even considering booking her - do it. The quality of her work and the experience she creates are both so, so worth it!

Michelle was super friendly, easy to work with, and made the whole process so comfortable. I love her soft, bright style of photography and our photos turned out exactly how I imagined--absolutely beautiful! Even after the photos were taken, she went above and beyond--helping with image fixes and being so patient with all my requests for help. These are memories we'll treasure forever. If you're in Oahu and looking for a photographer, I highly recommend Michelle!

Now, I am not the most photogenic and feel super awkward posing behind cameras, but the poses and interactions that Sean directed us to do led to very natural, joyful moments in the photos. We came in not knowing what to expect, but left feeling the experience was really fun and engaging. What drew us most to this group was their editing, and they did not disappoint. The resulting pictures were phenomenal. They kept well within the timelines they told us to expect, as well. Thank you to the Jenna Lee team for making this an overall great experience.

We are beyond thrilled that we had Jenna Lee & her tribe for our wedding day! From start to finish,…read moreshe made the entire experience fun, engaging, and stress-free. Her approach was far from the standard "stand and smile" routine; instead, she and her team made sure every moment felt natural, joyful, and full of emotion. She took the time to understand what we wanted, and her attention to detail truly captured the essence of our wedding day. The photos are vibrant, full of life, and each one tells a beautiful story of our special day. When I was first booking, what stood out to me was that Jenna herself called me at a very odd hour because of my schedule. She was so flexible and accommodating, taking the time to chat about what she offered. That conversation was a game changer--it completely altered the way I wanted to approach our wedding day. Initially, I was hesitant about doing the first look and family photos before the ceremony, as I thought it wasn't the traditional way to do things. But Jenna shared her prior experiences, and since we wanted to be present for cocktail hour and fully enjoy the day, we decided to take her advice. It was MAGIC. When I first opened my photos, I was with my new husband, my mother-in-law, two of the groomsmen, and a bridesmaid, and we were all brought to tears with how phenomenal, powerful, and stunning the photos were. She truly captured so many important moments, and the amazing part is, it was FUN. Every photo radiated emotion and joy, and we'll cherish them forever. What also really stood out was how thoughtful and generous Jenna and her team were. The entire team was not only professional but also incredibly fun--honestly, I would be friends with every photographer there! They made the experience feel like we were surrounded by love and family, creating moments full of joy, laughter, and genuine connection. They were there when we needed them but never intrusive. Jenna and her team's responsiveness was another huge bonus--they were always quick to answer calls and texts, which helped us feel at ease throughout the process. I can't tell you how many times I was adding and subtracting hours and not once did they make me feel bad or like it was a burden. Additionally, the turnaround time for the photos was incredibly fast! We felt like we had the images in no time, and every single one exceeded our expectations. We feel INCREDIBLY lucky that Jenna was the photographer for our wedding; her team was just as phenomenal. She captured beautiful memories, kept the experience lighthearted and meaningful, and we will treasure her work FOREVER. 10/10 would recommend her! Amazing! Thank you Jenna!!!! -- Ashlie

Sent a project request out for family portraits for us and our elderly grandmother. Out of the 5 in the area, Perfect Portraits was the only one with a studio. They also had quick replies to messages and gave prices upfront. They were easy to understand and had reasonable pricing. I set a date for about two weeks out. Of the questions I asked, you are able to request prints, but they do have digital download available. They go by hour sessions for the session. Photo editing available- they use Evoto. You can pick your favorite 10 for photo editing. Photo session scheduled for 3/26/2026, at their University location- the Varsity building, renamed Hale Kealaula. Right now at the university location, their elevator was down so we had to walk five flights up the stairs. It was a lot of stairs in nice and pretty clothing. [ Please know this is after the two weeks of severe weather. I am not sure if this is was a result of that. ] The day of the photo shoot went well overall. *If you do have an elderly lady that has trouble walking, please let them know because they have two locations for the studio. I recommend arriving a little early and changing there, because they do have changing rooms and mirrors. I met two photographers there: Gail and Nikki. They take as many photos as they can during that hour be prepared with what poses you want what kind of photos you want and don't be afraid to move around. Just tell them to take photos and they will you never know if with infants, what kind of reactions you get in the moment and it might be the cutest thing. I really liked taking pictures with Nikki. Nikki was able to play with our baby while taking the photo and she was able to get the happiest giggles and squeals from my infant son. I think that made taking the photos with so many people so that much easier. They had different platformswood benches so we could sit in different positions and take different type of photos. We also took infant photos after we were done with family poses. I feel like we did make the most of our hour.

The prices for school pictures are outrageous. It is really unethical to take so much money from…read moreparents who cannot refuse to buy overpriced school pictures. We are long past the era when cameras had to be very expensive to make good photos and when developing film and retouching pictures was hard work. My grandfather was a photographer, and he was retouching with actual small brushes and was manually enlarging negatives. It was taking long hours to produce good pictures and now it takes a second to print them out. And don't tell me that digital retouching costs $7! Any teen knows how to do it. We are not idiots (yet, we still buy the pictures, because we have no choice). I urge schools to take it more seriously when they hire photographers for school pictures. It is not fair to parents to be ripped off like this.
