This is long overdue. Nov 2025, Jason photographed my family of 4 on Kauai. He was so easy going, great with the kids and adults. But all around cool nice guy. Best of all we love our pictures! Candid, beautiful & meaningful. He sent us all the edited digital within days. Great price too! Thank you! read more

Jason was amazing and so easy to work with. He is genuine and playful and an incredibly talented photographer. He was able to capture such genuine shots of our extended family and with ease and playfulness. Will definitely use him again for our next trip to Kauai. Highly recommend Jason! read more

Jason is an amazing photographer who is also very easy to work with and personable! He made the experience really fun and helped us enjoy the beautiful setting that we were in. He was so good with our 2-year old daughter who didn't hesitate to follow his instructions. He also clearly knew what he was doing and we felt confident that the photos would turn out beautiful, which they absolutely did! He also got the photos back to us really promptly. We had plenty of time to make our Christmas cards. We would book him again if we're ever back in Kauai! read more

THIS WAS EPIC! We had a family reunion in Kauai and wanted to immortalize it. And finding the right photographer is a big trust to have when you're a visitor in paradise. I was immediately certain that Jason of JRP Photography was it!! Just look at his pages or website and you'll see why. Jason has this great eye for the emotion of the shot, not just the contents. He staged a few beach shots and told me, just wait for the sky to catch on fire! And it did! We have the greatest pictures of our greatest memories, thanks to Jason. Mahalo. read more

Jason did an incredible job photographing my family at shipwreck beach! He took beautiful photos and we are very happy with the entire experience. He was accommodating of a last minute schedule change request and was also great with our kids ( 2 yr old and 6 yr old)! He was playful and my kids quickly warmed up to him. We will be reaching out to Jason next time we visit! read more

Jason was so amazing! It was pouring rain the morning of our photoshoot, and he offered to come back and meet us the next morning and it was a perfect day. He was so great with my 4 year old daughter and 8 month old son, he had them both laughing within minutes and I felt like their pure joy came through in our photoshoot. I will cherish these photos forever, they're so beautiful and joyful just like our experience. I highly recommend!! read more

AMAZING!! We have used Jason a few times now... first for some business shots, then for a fundraiser event and now for my sons graduation photos and once again very impressed with him. Each time he is somehow able to capture these intimate, fleeting moments and somehow translate all that emotion into a photo to cherish for a lifetime. Talented, professional and very fun to work with... Thank you Jason Phillips! read more

A+++++ Amazing Experience! Jason is absolutely phenomenal! Our little one came down with food poisoning the day of our photo shoot and was cranky the entire time, but Jason handled it like a pro. He had endless tricks to entertain both of our kids and somehow captured the most beautiful moments despite the chaos. His photography skills are truly world-class, and he works quickly and efficiently--exactly what you need when wrangling two toddlers! Jason is hands-down the best photographer I've ever worked with. I only wish we had found him sooner! read more

We had a wonderful photo shoot with Jason on Kaua'i. He had been referred to me by my cousin who had photos done a few months prior. I had three days where we could fit something in and we easily booked a session around 7:30 am on Shipwreck Beach to capture all the photos we needed of my family of 4 (kids 8 and 11 yo). The kids afterwards told me how much fun they had doing the shoot and Jason captured really amazing action shots of them. We all loved the photos - I am so happy we did the shoot as we rarely get family photos together on vacation and even happier with how nice the pictures turned out. Jason was so nice and easy to work with. He even put together a short slide show along with the photos that my family and I love to watch over and over again. Mahalo! read more

Jason is amazing!! The whole experience was perfect! He picked an excellent location, was so great to work with, made it fun for all of us, and kept our 4 and 6 year old entertained! I will forever treasure these photos!! I highly recommend Jason! read more

We had the absolute best experience with Jason Phillips! From start to finish, he was creative, professional, and incredibly talented. He took our family to different locations and captured such a great mix of action shots, portraits, and candid moments--all with a beautiful, artistic eye. He was especially wonderful with our kids--he had them laughing, posing naturally, and genuinely enjoying the experience. My girls thought he was hilarious, and it totally shows in the photos. He made us all feel relaxed, which helped bring out the most authentic and joyful moments. The final photos were stunning--thoughtfully edited, polished, and delivered even sooner than expected. We've worked with several photographers over the years, and he is hands down the best. His passion for his work shines through in every image. Can't recommend him highly enough! read more

I wanted to capture our family's visit to Kaua'i in a special way - Jason accomplished that and more! We absolutely loved how the photos turned out, especially the action shots. The girls had so much fun during the shoot, they both said they enjoyed our time with Jason. Jason was very personable and made us feel at ease right from the start. Jason - thank you for capturing the spirit of my family through your lens. Now we have these photos to look back on the amazing time we spent in beautiful Kaua'i! We got lots of compliments on how natural the photos turned out. I would highly recommend Jason! read more

Jason is a storyteller! This is the second time we did a family session with him. We did our first photo session seven years ago and were blown away not only by how the pictures turned out but also with the experience so this second time around we knew that the pictures would turn out absolutely great, but we didn't expect them to beat our first session. We were totally wrong! Sure enough, Jason outdid himself! His creativity and artistry are top notch but most importantly he made the photo session really fun and memorable for all of us (my husband, I, and our two kids). Our family will cherish the memory and definitely treasure the pictures for years to come. Thank you, Jason!!! We're looking forward to doing another family session with you in the future! read more

Jason is awesome. We had a hotel photographer set up and they turned out to be a complete joke. So we called Jason last minute and he was able to fit us in. He did an awesome job, and my kids absolutely loved working with him. He made the whole experience fun. The final product looks great. His turn time was fairly quick as well. And he was quite a bit cheaper than some of the other photographers on the island. He really bailed us out on our photoshoot this year. We will for sure use him next time we are in Kauai. read more

Jason is the man. Period! I was in Poipu Bay for a trip with my girlfriend and he helped me plan the most perfect proposal. He had the expertise and know-how to help me prepare her for a photo shoot of a lifetime. He's been on the island for over 20 years and is extremely personable. We spent a good half hour or so talking before our shoot and I felt like I was just hanging out with a friend! Jason, thanks for making this experience the happiest day of my life. Mahalo! read more

Absolutely amazing experience. Jason has a unique ability to capture beautiful photos while engaging with our entire family, ranging in age from 10 to 75. He has an incredible eye for detail and his style really meshed well with our extended family of 18. THANK YOU for an amazing morning at the beach and for the wonderful photos. read more

Jason is the best!! I'm not sure what I can add to the already 200+ five-star reviews. We had a lot of fun during the photoshoot and he even bought a monkey plush-toy to entertain our little one. The photos we got were simply amazing. If you're even remotely considering to do a photoshoot in Kauai and Jason is available, just go for it! read more

Jason as great to work with. Made the whole family feel very comfortable and our pictures are beautiful!

Jason is the photographer of my mama heart's dreams. Haven't done family photos since my children were toddlers & now I have a 26 & 23 year old. He exceeded all my expectations & then some. He was so fun to work with & put us all at ease & it showed in the photos. All I can say is that he was able to capture true joy! I've already been praying that he will still be doing his art when I have grandchildren so that he can capture us then. Don't hesitate to book a session with him & don't let 20+ years to get the pictures. But if it meant I had to wait to have Jason take them, then it was worth it!! Mahalo, Jason. read more

We came to Kauai for our babymoon and Jason helped to capture some really beautiful photos of my husband and I on the beach with our baby bump. He spent a lot of time with us and it's clear he has a lot of experience with how to pose and the best time of day for optimal photo lighting. He is also such a nice person and made the whole experience enjoyable. We had our photos edited and back to us within a few days. Highly recommend! read more

All I can say is WOW!! Every time I look at the pictures or watch the amazing video Jason put together I cry tears of joy. He did a great job interacting with our kids and getting them to play for the camera. He was laid back and loved all the energy we had. Thanks again Jason for capturing amazing pics of our family. read more

I went through Yelp and Jason's photos got my attention. When I called him he sounded very flexible and just easy to work with. The photo session was fun and he took us to two spots. The results were great and he gave the photos timely. We'll use him again. Thank you Jason! read more

Jason and JRP Photography have been nothing short of spectacular. After helping us make our proposal live on forever he has worked his magic once more with our wedding day. We couldn't ask for more. Jason is a professional, very personable and has the talent to bring your special moments to the world. We would recommend his services to anyone. Our family has already worked with him on two other occasions. Thank you Jason for all you have done and especially for being you. Aloha. read more

Jason was incredible from start to finish. Coordinated a next-day shoot, gave great suggestions on location and attire, was flexible and accommodating, and had an incredible multi-generational presence. He had grandparents, parents, and grandchildren all laughing with genuine belly laughs, and brought the best out of our family. The photos are also phenomenal. Jason truly understands lighting, and how to make his subjects POP without over-editing. We are absolutely in love with our family shoot! Great communicator, great human. Will absolutely be using Jason again next time we're on the island! read more

I booked a photography session for our extended family on a vacation to Kauai this month. Jason was easy to communicate with and we coordinated a time very easily. He was fantastic to work with. We had 3 families + grandparents (including 6 kids ranging from 6 months old to 6 years old). He made the kids feel comfortable - we got lots of photos with cute smiles. The turnaround time for photos was very quick and the quality of them is amazing. We are thrilled with our experience and highly recommend working with Jason! read more

Jason is a great photographer! He made our entire family feel at ease. He had great ideas of different shots that would work for our family but was also open to ideas we wanted. He even got in the water to make our vision a reality. We are so happy we chose him to take our family photos while on vacation in Kauai. He captured some core memories that were made. read more

Family Photo Session PoiPu Beach, Kauai Hawaii Jason worked with our large (9) member family, which included a 2-1/2 year old at Ship Wreck Beach PoiPu, Kauai. We thoroughly enjoyed our photo shoot with Jason, as he also had an "amazing touch" keeping our grandson attentive and engaged as the photos were being taken.... Jason utilized the morning sun, ocean, mist, beach and waves crashing against the cliffs in the background, which really enhanced all the pictures taken. The photo's generated were awesome, as we will cherish this family vacation for a lifetime... We highly recommend JRP Photography...!! MAHALO JASON.... read more

Another 5 star review! I booked this photo session on a whim and we were so pleased with both the photo shoot and the photos. Jason was super nice and fun to work with - he was also great with my 4 year old. I can tell he really enjoys his work. We got so many great photos and it was more affordable than what we are used to in the Bay Area. An amazing value and I would definitely recommend. read more

The photos turned out amazing! Jason was so fun, relaxed, and friendly. His demeanor brought the best out of our family (including very small children)! read more

Revisited Kauai but this time brought the family for our parents 50th anniversary. We knew we had to call up Jason to help capture the celebration. Like most families, we had a set of limitations that kept us from going to some of the more scenic sites such as Shipwreck Beach. That didn't stop Jason from making the experience incredibly enjoyable for everyone. He took what seemed like a simple location by the Sheraton and make it seem entirely unique and isolated. He engaged everyone in my family with such care and compassion. We will definitely be giving Jason a call the next time we visit Kauai. read more

Jason is a phenomenal photographer who made myself and my partner feel comfortable in front of the camera. This is saying a lot because neither of us are fond of being the center of attention . He had a great way of making us feel like we were just having a playful day at the beach and also giving us directions and prompts that make us laugh and enjoy ourselves even more. The pictures turned out better than I could have ever imagined. 10/10 would recommend. read more

I can't say enough about how wonderful Jason is. We booked him for a family shoot with two young kids. He was extremely responsive, and most importantly flexible. He offered to reschedule for a sunny day since the day we were scheduled was supposed to rain. And then both my kids got sick, and he was so understanding about pushing out the shoot another day. This kids loved him - he knew just how to make them smile. And the photography was stunning. Highly recommend!!! read more

I am so happy and excited about the beautiful photo shoot that we had with Jason. He captured our family so well! My 80 year old father with mobility issues was treated so well by Jason as was my husband and I. We had so many wonderful pictures of our family, and the beauty of Hawaii and our familial connection was gorgeously recorded. Jason is kind and funny. Made everyone feel comfortable all while making memorable moments for us to cherish. Recommend whole heartedly. Thank you again Jason! read more

Jason absolutely crushed this shoot. My family is not the most photogenic and we usually get tired quick during long photography sessions but everyone had fun for the entire 2 hour sunset shoot with Jason. He was more than accomodating, as we requested to shoot at Polihale Beach which isn't the easiest place to get to but he jumped on it without hesistation. He did a great job with the family pictures and the engagement photos turned out absolutely perfect, he really captured a special moment very well. Also he managed to get good shots of my 2 year old niece which we thought was impossible to do. I highly recommend Jason for any of your photography needs! read more

I was searching for a professional to take some family photos while vacationing in Kauai - did quite a bit of investigating before the shoot and, after reviewing the photos, I know I chose well. Jason did a great job getting our diverse crowd (5 grandkids between 2 and 7) happily in place for wonderful family and individual photos. He was exceptional at getting many candid photos using the beautiful Kauai scenery as the backdrop. Timeless memories preserved and he helped us pick the right time of day for best lighting/photo conditions. It all worked! Highly recommend! read more
