About
...a wedding and lifestyle photographer based out of Southern California, John loves loves loves his brides and grooms! Regularly gracing the pages of wedding magazines and fireplace mantles, John's art is deeply inspired by the influence of modern art, fashion, and photojournalism.
Brides often describe his highly refined style of wedding photography edgy, chic, and brilliantly narrative.There's so much more to wedding photography than gear, lighting, and technical hoo-ha. It's about timelessness. It's about story telling. And it's definitely about bending over backward just to get that o.m.g. shot.
You see, that's where John's experience, love for people, and intuitive desire for awesomeness come into play. Not only does John play the role of a "ninja in a tree" to capture the candid and unrehearsed moments but he also loves it when he gets to step up to compose the imagery that brought you here in the first place.
John's best advice to brides: Keep a pair of flip-flops near you all day. Your feet will thank you!
John is available for both local and destination adventures and travels to photograph his clients.

John, Simple Two we had a lot of same customers who love his style and personality. I love to work with John too, he is easy work with and all my brides were very happy with their pictures.
John Yao from SimplyTwo Photography is simply awesome. He was the photographer at my sister and now brother in law's wedding and not only did he put in time and effort to do a great job on the engagement shoot and wedding, but he went above and beyond. We had a photo booth at the wedding and had some technical issues with the flash. He was kind enough to let us borrow his extra flash unit. John is super friendly and knows how to please not only the wedding party, but the guests as well. Can't wait to see more of his work!
