Christopher Sent on 12/02/2024Couldn't be Happier - Destinaiton Wedding!
Absolutely thrilled with the incredible service provided by Jordan and his team for our wedding in Maui! From the moment we reached out, Jordan, the owner, was exceptionally professional, responsive, and genuinely passionate about capturing our special day.
Jordan's expertise and creativity truly shine through in every frame of our wedding video. He has an extraordinary eye for detail and a remarkable ability to capture the most intimate and candid moments, making our video not just a recording, but a beautiful story of our love and celebration. The quality of the footage is stunning, with breathtaking shots of the Maui landscape seamlessly integrated with the joyous moments of our wedding.
What sets High Focused apart is Jordan's dedication to his craft and his clients. He took the time to understand our vision and preferences, ensuring that the final product was a perfect reflection of our personalities and the essence of our wedding day. His friendly and approachable demeanor made us feel comfortable and at ease, allowing us to be ourselves in front of the camera.
The editing was flawless, with a perfect blend of music, transitions, and special effects that enhanced the overall viewing experience. We were blown away by how beautifully everything came together, and we have received countless compliments from family and friends who were equally impressed.
Choosing High Focused was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Jordan's talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for his work resulted in a wedding video that we will cherish forever. If you're looking for a wedding videographer in Maui, look no further than High Focused. Jordan will exceed your expectations and provide you with a timeless keepsake of your special day. Highly, highly recommend!HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Thank you so much for the kind words about working with me! It's an honor to have such high recognition for the craft I really love and enjoy! I also appreciate all you wrote about not only the final film but the time working with me from initial inquiry to finished product. I feel it’s important that each step of the process is taken with care. It’s especially important on the wedding day to not only get the shots but also let the bride and groom enjoy their day without imposition. Thank you again for all the heartfelt acknowledgement! It’s means a lot!!! Mahalo!!! -

Jordan and his team went above and beyond! Our wedding day was beautifully captured and the video exceeded our expectations! We turn to it all the time and rewatch it. If you are hesitant about booking videography, you will not regret this decision. Jordan was able to incorporate all our sentimental requests to be filmed. The flow and composition of the editing just makes sense and is organic. It truly takes me back to every moment from our day! Thank you again, Jordan!!HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Mahalo for the super kind review! So happy you are loving it so much! That's awesome it takes you right back to your day :) Thank you again for having us capture your stunning day! Congratulations to you both! Mahalo! -

Jordan and his team did an incredible job capturing our wedding. Watching the video makes the day come back to life. The way they put the video together makes it feel like watching a story, not just a bunch of video clips strung together. The quality is outstanding.HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Thank you for the review and thank you for having us capture your incredible day! Congratulations again to you both! Mahalo!

Sean Sent on 12/10/2024Wonderful to work with, even better final product!
My husband and I used Jordan from Hi Focused back in September of 2024 to capture video from our intimate wedding at the Four Seasons on Maui. Before we even packed for Hawaii he had already had a phone appointment with us, making us feel totally at ease and giving us the chance to share any ideas we had or concerns we couldn't shake.
The day of the wedding he was at our room on the MINUTE he said he would meet us. He had that perfect mix of seeming laid back, which helps everyone around him relax (which is needed for such a big day), but also having purpose in his work and making sure every moment got captured from every angle.
Don't let his calm demeanor trick you into thinking he is not happy to be doing this work. Rather, he is so knowledgeable and comes with a plan, that the prep allows him to be a source of levity during the chaotic hours leading up to the wedding.
The results were absolutely incredible. The turn around time was quicker than what he estimated. Which was a fabulous surprise when we got the link to our video.
We've watched it repeatedly and of course our family members haven't stopped watching it.
On a personal note, my Mother unexpectedly passed away a few weeks after our wedding. It was fantastic to have the pictures from the wedding, along with the photos we took on our own phones for the rest of the trip.
BUT it was the video that Jordan captured that I will forever cherish. It not only perfectly captured the love and excitement being shared on the day of the wedding. But, unbeknownst to anyone at the time, he was also capturing something immeasurable more special.
I felt informed and heard before we left for the wedding. He showed up on time, incredibly kind and calm. He had plans in his head and you could see him shift smoothly to a different idea if the sunlight or the weather wasn't being cooperative. He would flip to a new idea smoothly and it would turn out just as good as anything he could've had planned.
If you can't tell, I would highly recommend HI FOCUSED for any of your videography needs. I already told him that when we return for anniversaries, and maybe to spread my Mom's ashes, that we would be calling him to help capture the special moments.
Do yourself a favor and reach out to them. Their work is unmatched and their customer service is beyond reproach.HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Thank you Sean for the heartfelt and caring review! I really appreciate the recognition and kind words. It can be a delicate balance to get the shot but also make sure to be calm and collected while doing so. You described this so well in your review! So thank you for that! Also I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. I had no idea, my sincere condolences. I'm glad you have the video and clips to look back on. Sending good vibes and prayers to you and Paul. All the best to you both in your future a head. -

Ernesto Sent on 12/02/2024The perfect proposal!
I planned to propose to my girlfriend on a trip to Maui in July 2024. I've been to other islands before but this was my first trip to Maui and I was unfamiliar with the island and where I should propose. I reached out to a coworker who used to live in Maui for any proposal locations and he sent me a link to Hi Focused Cinematography and highly recommended I review the website and videos. After reviewing proposal and wedding videos on the website I immediately contacted Jordan and he was fantastic. Afer an initial phone call and discussion of what I was looking for, Jordan provided me with several locations where he could capture the moment live and covertly. Jordan was responsive, answered questions and provided detailed instructions for the big day. His technical experience, knowledge of Maui, and professionalism made the entire process smooth and perfect.
My fiance and I were so pleased with the beautiful video Jordan made of our proposal we are now contemplating a destination wedding in Maui and having Jordan capture our wedding. I have since recommended Hi Focused Cinematography to several other friends who were traveling to Maui and were looking for a photographer or cinematographer.HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Amazing words! Thank you for choosing me to film your proposal, it all worked out so perfectly! Also thank you for referring me to your friends. All of this is very appreciated!!! Mahalo and congratulations to you both on this new chapter! -

Definitely worth the money!
I was hesitant to spend the money on a video but decided to last minute and I am sooooo glad we did! They did a phenomenal job and we cannot stop watching it. Very professional, great editing and really captured us and the highlights of our special day for us to always watch and look back on. Thank you for our amazing video!HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
So glad you did choose to have us capture your perfect wedding at Merriman's Kapalua! It all came together soooo beautifully!

Morgan Sent on 11/27/2024We LOVED Jordan & HiFocused!
We were referred to Jordan by our wedding coordinator at the Andaz for our Maui wedding in Sept 2024 and we could not be happier with how the videos turned out! Jordan and his team are so professional. We could tell he’s been doing this a long time based on what shots he thought would look good and he knew exactly how to work with our photographers. Our wedding videos are like real life cinematography because of HiFocused. We cannot recommend them enough!HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
I love it! Thank you for the amazing review! It was such a joy to capture your dream day! Thank you again for such kind words!!! Mahalo and all the best to you both! Congratulations! -

Anthony Sent on 03/19/2024Lovely and Easy to work with
Jordan and his team were so nice and kind, and on the day of our wedding, they were so easy to work with! They knew exactly what angles to shoot and were so good at directing us! We definitely recommend HI FOCUSED cinematography for your videography needs!HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:

Kyra Sent on 03/18/2024Gorgeous 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!HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Thank you so much!!! I’m so flattered with this really kind review!
It’s amazing clients like the both of you that make the craft so enjoyable. Thank you again for writing such kind words it made my day! All the best in your future together! Congratulations again! -

Ryan Sent on 03/10/2024Ali 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!

Thank you Ryan for the amazing review! Wow that is so nice of you to write all of that! I'm so flattered. I really love what you wrote about how I made you feel at ease and how happy you were with the final film / photos. Congratulations to you both on your perfect proposal! Take care and all the best! -

Stephanie Sent on 03/06/2024Wonderful 4K memory of our wedding day on Maui
Jordan and his team did a tremendous job capturing all the highlights of our big day. He was responsive and easy to work with. After he sent the initial video, we asked if there was any way he could add one particular shot. He gladly made the small change for no charge. The edited final product was absolutely stunning and EXACTLY what we wanted. You could tell he wanted us to be 100% satisfied with the final product. Would HIGHLY recommend.HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
That’s amazing! I appreciate what you wrote! Especially about how I wanted to make sure the film was exactly what you wanted :)
That’s definitely how I feel! Thank you again for the kind words and writing this! All the best to you both and congratulations again!

Aleksandra Sent on 02/06/2024Most Professional Wedding Video EVER
If you are looking for an extremely professional video (movie quality) of your wedding day that will make you think you are watching a romantic movie when you see yourselves, look no further. My dream was to have a wedding video that captured our love and special day so perfectly, that truly evoked emotions each time I re-watched the video. You will not regret choosing Jordan and his team for your special day, his pricing is definitely not low, however I learned you do get what you pay for. Since this is a once in a lifetime day and memory, trust me it's worth it. Our family and friends could not believe their eyes when they saw how our video came out. Attached a screenshot from our dreamy beautiful video.HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Wow! Thank you so much for what you wrote about your thoughts on your wedding film! I really like the part where you wrote about it being a romantic movie that you will see yourself in! Thank you again for having us capture your beautiful wedding elopement!!!

Heather Sent on 09/20/2023Maui’s Best for a Reason
Jordan knows what he’s doing and it shows. He was proactive from the start asking all the right questions to set everything up smoothly. He was lightning fast with responses and communication. Amber, his teammate was excellent as well; the pair gave clear cues and instructions for my awkward husband and I in front of the camera. They made it fun and were easy to work with. By the end of our day we felt like we made two new friends. Fast forward to a week later and we were blown away by our final video. It brought my hubby to (happy) tears. It was some of the best $ we’ve spent on our wedding. If you’re on the fence, just go for it with HiFocused.HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
Thank you so so much for the glowing review! You wrote so many kind words and I especially liked what you wrote about us being new friends :-) I feel the same way! Thanks again for having us and being such awesome clients and now friends :-) -

We've had the privilege of experiencing Jordan from HiFocused's incredible work not just at our own wedding but also at my sister and brother-in-law's wedding back in 2018. Choosing him for our Maui wedding celebration at the Andaz Hotel and St. Theresa Church was among our best decisions.
Jordan is a masterful videographer, capturing both the grandeur of the settings and the intimate, emotional moments that make a wedding special. His drone shots overlooking the Andaz Hotel and the ocean were breathtaking, and he managed to capture the Maui sunset's ethereal beauty flawlessly. Additionally, his eye for detail is impeccable. He missed nothing, from close-ups of our wedding rings to small details around our wedding signage and table arrangements.
One of the standout aspects was his seamless collaboration with our photographers. The two teams worked in perfect harmony, ensuring that every crucial moment was captured from multiple angles.
Jordan's calm demeanor was invaluable on a day packed with emotion and events. He showed up early, stayed late, and maintained utmost professionalism throughout the day. He's remarkably unobtrusive—capturing every moment without us even noticing he was there.
The final video exceeded all expectations, combining high-quality audio, artistic angles, and seamless transitions into a keepsake that we'll treasure forever. If you're planning a wedding in Maui and searching for a videographer, look no further. Jordan and the HiFocused team have proven their excellence across multiple weddings in our family, and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough.HI FOCUSED cinematography's reply:
I really appreciate the super thoughtful RAVE review! You wrote so many meaningful sentiments in there, from us capturing the grandeur of the settings, emotions, details and remaining unobtrusive! I appreciate all the recognition thank you! Both of you were so easy to work with too. Very kind thoughtful and genuine. Your wedding day was so perfect from all of your personal touches, gifts, design and party with your friends and family. Truly an epic day! It was good to see Arthur and Vanessa too! Thank you again for having us and it's been a pleasure to film your wedding! -
