Jason is incredible. He is extremely professional, personable, and our photos are amazing. Jason is a true artist.
My husband is a difficult person to photograph. When asked to smile on demand, well, let's just say it's not good. Add to that the fact that one of the things that I was very excited about was lots of family photos of the family that is spread far and wide--and we were in for a disaster. I don't know how he did it--but Jason managed to make my husband smile naturally, and we have these keepsake photos that look amazing.
The other priority I had was the creative shots, and I wanted lots of candids at the reception. Jason delivered. He has an incredible eye, and caught so many beautiful moments, both posed and candid. Not to mention how hard he worked ALL NIGHT LONG. We had a nighttime wedding, so obviously the lighting could have been a problem--Jason made sure it wasn't. He was basically at a full out run the entire night, I swear, he probably ran a full marathon over the course of the 6 hours we had him. Our guests found him charming and sweet, but also commented on just how hard he was working, but that he made it look easy.
I Would definitely recommend him to a friend.

Review 2 of 2 Goes with the other review by me :)
The day after the wedding we got to see the pictures that were taken at the chapel (not by Jason). They were horrible! The lighting was crap and neither of us looked very good. I looked frumpy and the shadows on us were horrible. I was a nervous wreck. I thought to myself- crap I look horrible in all of my wedding pictures! Yesterday Jason sent me an email with our “sneak peak”- 3 pictures from our photo shoot. And OMG they are AMAZING!!! I look beautiful and my husband looks beyond handsome! We LOVE LOVE LOVE the pictures. I can’t wait to get the rest of them!!! I have seriously looked at the 3 pictures about 50 times in the past 24 hours!
My only regret is that I didn’t choose a venue that allowed outside photographers in- I wished I had Jason there for the ceremony as well!
Trust me when I tell you – YOU NEED TO HIRE JASON!!! His prices are amazing and his work is beyond amazing!

If you are looking for a photographer- stop now and book Jason- seriously!!!
To me photography was pretty much the most important thing about the wedding. I went through ALL of the Vegas photographers on Wedding Wire, contacted each one for their prices, and then went through all of their galleries and rated them on my own personal 5 star system- Yes I know- CRAZY!
The Chapel that we had booked did not let us bring in an outside photographer- so we meet with Jason after the wedding to do a “Strip Tour”- pictures on the Vegas Strip. His prices were great and he worked well with us. I let him know the places I wanted to go and the time I wanted to start, and he gave me HONEST professional opinions that made it so we had great pictures and great lighting. He was more than accommodating to let our family come to the very beginning of our shoot to get a couple family shoots in before we started the normal photo shoot.
The day we had our wedding- we were taking pictures outside in the middle of the hot Vegas strip- in 107 degree weather. My husband and I were dying- myself in a huge wedding dress and my husband in slacks and a button up. Jason made sure to keep us in the shade as much as possible. His camera bag was also full of water bottles that he gave to us to hydrate through the whole shoot. He even brought out make up oil sheets to keep my face from getting shiny. And when he ran out- he let use a camera lens cleaning cloth to blot my face. Jason goes above and beyond for the pictures! The day before the photo shoot he went out to the strip at the time we were meeting up at so he could find the best places as well as see how the lighting was. He made sure we got the pictures that we wanted and worked so well with us. He positioned us in ways that make the pictures come out GREAT! They feel weird while you are taking the picture but look AMAZING in the end!

We are so happy we found Jason - from the first email we sent, to the photography on the day he was always responsive and going above and beyond for us. We supplied some examples of the types of photos we liked, and Jason helped us bring these to life and we couldn't be happy with the sneak peak photos we've seen so far! Our favourite so far being our silhouette in front of the Bellagio fountain - it was a lot of extra work, but we're thrilled he went to the effort for us.
Jason & his assistant were great company on the day, we felt really comfortable during our session and we really appreciated his direction and keeping us energised throughout.
We highly recommend Jason! Bel & Pablo, April 2014.

We can't say enough great things about Jason and his team! The pictures he and Kanani took at our wedding turned out amazing. They created professional quality pictures that exceeded our expectations.
From the strict rules of the church to our picture requests, he made sure he covered all bases. He is a great person to work with and he has a great staff that supports him. Even our guests were coming up to us during the wedding saying how nice and genuine all of them were.
Highly recommended!!!!

I've known Jason since we went to college at Boston University. We worked closely together then and I admired Jason's unique blend of creativity and professionalism. Fast forward 10 years - I had just gotten engaged, and my fiance and I quickly agreed that we wanted to get married at one of our favorite destinations, Las Vegas. When researching photographers in the area, I happily discovered that Jason was living in Las Vegas and was, in fact, a wedding photographer. I immediately contacted him to schedule an engagement photo shoot and book him as our wedding photographer.
Now planning a wedding has its challenges, not to mention planning a wedding 2500 miles across the country. However, thanks to many e-mails and Skype conversations with Jason, I felt constantly connected. Jason was always very responsive to my questions/requests (no matter how strange or minute), and went above and beyond in communicating every last detail.
The engagement shoot went a long way in making my husband and I familiar with taking direction and working with Jason and, of course, the pictures came out exactly as we wanted. On the wedding day, I was immediately at ease from the time I stepped out of the limo and saw Jason. Through the night, Jason and our 2nd photographer, Corey, would share previews of the shots they were getting and I was completely blown away! I knew that they perfectly documented our day as no one else could.
I also got so many compliments from our family and guests at the wedding on what a great job Jason was doing. They all said that they had never seen a wedding photographer work as hard as Jason worked for us - he made sure he got every moment, right up until the last minute.
Even now, since Jason has posted our "sneak peek" photos, we continue to get compliments from our family and friends at how absolutely stunning Jason's work is. I can honestly say this will not be the last time we work together and I can't wait for the next time!

I found Jason while I was browsing another vendor's Facebook page, I saw one of his images then checked out his website and I loved his work. I was following him on FB for about like 8 months. In January I decided to renew my 10 year wedding vows in Las Vegas. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do but thanks to Jason we figured it all out. Being a photographer myself all I cared about were having beautiful pictures of my family. Well I called Jason and he responded right away, we chatted for awhile and then he sent me several locations along with pictures. Right away I knew where I wanted to do it as it was quite unique. Leading up to the ceremony we talked several more times and on the day of, he was there early and ready to get started. He was very nice and professional and always made me feel comfortable. I love his vision and his knowledge of posing. He was very patient as was his assistant who was also very helpful. I just saw my 1st two pictures and I was so emotional because they actually transported me back to that day - it was perfection. I would highly recommend Jason anytime and hope that I have the chance to work with him again as he is so talented and passionate about his art!

We had met with several photographers in Las Vegas prior to meeting with Jason. We were incredibly underwhelmed with the quality, and, outside of hiring Uncle Jed, availability of reasonably priced options.
Then we met Jason. One of the things we liked most about Jason was how he made every effort to imprint an artistic touch to his work. Although he has several weddings to attend to, we never really felt like we were just “one of many” or just another transaction. He took the time to get to know us, which allowed him to exemplify our personalities in the photos. While he is very professional and obviously takes his work seriously, you get the sense that he values the artistic side of his work more than the business side. He takes a lot of pride in his work.
Jason did both our engagement and wedding and we have gotten so many compliments on our photos. Jason truly made our wedding day one to remember. When the chaos of the day eventually started, he was there to assist in any way we could. Whether that was helping with stuck dress zippers, having blotting paper handy, or following our world’s cutest flower girl around for more shots, he was there. I could swear he cloned himself the day of the wedding because everywhere I was, he was there. He captured all the key moments and then some. He was very flexible and collaborative which made our day a breeze.
We moved away from town shortly before our wedding in Vegas so we were able to accomplish our planning through a mixture of e-mail, Skype and phone calls. Jason made everything super easy and he has this great calming presence. We purchased a package that included our engagement photos, wedding photos, slide show cd, and received all our originals on a CD. Most photographers we met wanted you to buy the originals. To make things even easier, Jason also posted our photos to his website so we could easily share them with friends and family on Facebook or email.
Book this guy. You won’t regret it.
