Aloha I’m Jordan. Born and raised here on Maui, I grew up with a passion for art, videography and action sports. My first love, in-line skating, took me around the world, where I had the privilege to compete in the X-Games and all the other major contests. During this time I would produce videos for sponsors and sports segments for TV. As my pro career slowed down my videography career took off. From my first wedding in 2005 to now being Hawaii’s most awarded wedding film studio, it’s been an amazing journey and I’m so grateful for all the success Hi Focused has had. Making wedding films isn’t just a profession for me; it’s an art that I care passionately about.

Beyond amazing

Let me just start by giving Jordan and his team a huge round of applause, and a heartfelt thank you! Their work is AMAZING!
While planning our destination wedding our coordinator had a short list of preferred videographers, let me tell you HiFocused stood out like no other. They had videos on virtually every social media platform including vimeo for us to check out. Needless to say it was one of the easiest and best wedding decisions to hire them. Their work did all the talking. I had no doubt in my mind that they would execute the perfect wedding film for us.
As our wedding date approached, Jordan reached out to schedule a brief phone call to ensure we were all on the same page and set expectations. He also made sure to ask about any special touches that we wanted to be highlighted on the film during the ceremony or any other part of the wedding.
I really only had one request and it was to capture some butterfly accents that I had added to our wedding arch that represented lost loved ones for us. A small meaningful touch that only immediate family would have understood.
Cut to the wedding day, Jordan and his associate made both my husband and I feel beyond comfortable, and to be honestly it kind of felt like we had known them for a while. That’s how comfortable they made us feel! They did provide general guidance and poses, but it felt very natural.
During a few sunset shots I noticed a small butterfly around us and I asked if they could capture it for the video. I didn’t exactly think that they would have captured anything, but I figured that it was worth a shot. Unfortunately, early the next morning I found out that a close relative passed on our wedding date. I know it may sound crazy, but I was convinced that the butterfly was her visiting us in the form of a butterfly. I emailed Jordan, and asked that whenever they got around to editing, IF he happened to get a good shot of it, I would love to have it in the film. He responded within minutes that he would do his best. Before the day was over he had actually gone out of his way to email the clip of the butterfly and a few stills of it as well. My family, husband and I are eternally grateful.

I share this to not only highlight how responsive and accommodating they are. They really do go above and beyond their menu list on their website and pamphlet and make it a point to be personable. If you made it this far into my review, don't bother looking into other videographers, you already stumbled across the best team on the Island. Guaranteed!

Ali and Ryan Engagement

“A picture is worth a thousand words”
Late last year, I found Jordan by chance on Instagram. I was looking for excursions and different places to visit during our family trip to Maui for the first time ever. A surprise I had beyond the family trip was to create the most beautiful engagement proposal I could possible think of. When I found Jordan’s Instagram page and website, I knew instantly he would be the one to capture all of my ideas and most importantly the love I have for Ali. As our trip began to approach, Jordan walked me through every step of the proposal process from A-Z! He was available every time I had questions.
Proposal day: Jordan worked hand in hand with my mother who helped keep this entire day a secret. Jordan met me out front of the lobby to get mic’d up and assured me to have fun, breathe, and let him capture it all. Jordan’s professional and ability to connect with me was everything I could ask for and more. When Ali and I received our official video and photographs, we were driving on the road to Hana. Out of excitement we pulled over and couldn’t believe this video was of the two of us. It was our love story captured by Jordan and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to tell our story than him! Thank you Jordan for your time, professionalism, and support!!
If you’re looking for a photographer/videographer in Maui, Jordan is your guy. You will be speechless when you see what he can do with a camera!

Gorgeous POV of our special day

Our early wedding plans did not include a videographer, but looking back on our day we could not be happier that we decided on Hi Focused! Jordan was so easy to work with, flexible in adding additional time to our day, and helpful in giving us a realistic view into what the ideal wedding day film schedule should look like. We are not naturals in front of the camera, so his direction and great vibe helped us relax and enjoy capturing footage. He not only captured all of the "big" moments, but also shot our entire ceremony for those who couldn't be there. He was nearly invisible, but also ever present, capturing the best content. We owe some of our best memories to Jordan and highly recommend him for your wedding!

The team at Hi Focused Cinematography is stellar! I have worked with them on some rather large weddings. They are great communicators and I feel like we all work as a team.
