    Jon was an absolute joy to work with. From a genuine interest in the subject matter that made our interview super easy and conversational to a polished interview shot, incredibly artful eye for b-roll and a real above-and-beyond attitude, Jon is your guy for any project in Hawai'i!

    Jonathan went above and beyond with the shoots. The footage was excellent and very professional. He went back to do reshoots when he thought he didn't capture the best material one day and he also arranged an extra shoot that he thought would contribute to the story on his own.

    Jonathan was fantastic to work with. He really understood the story we were trying to tell and helped us capture the right interviews for it. I highly recommend working with Jonathan on any of your video needs!

  • STREET FOOD ICONS: Maguro Brothers in Honolulu, Hawaii

    • Documentary DP
    • News Shooter / Video Journalist

    Hidden away in the back of Chinatown’s Kekaulike market you will find the freshest and tastiest poke spot in Honolulu, Hawaii. Brothers Junichiro and Ryojiro Tsuchiya took what they learned in Japan as fishmongers and opened up a poké stall, aptly named Maguro Brothers. They visit the local fish market every morning to pick out the best fresh fish, used to serve up super fresh sashimi, grilled fish, and ahi poke over rice.

    I conducted several on-site, surprise interviews for the Antenna Group. The purpose of the interviews were to get electric vehicle owners to describe their experiences with ownership. The friendly and quick interviews were edited into one quick piece with the perfect soundtrack. Antenna Group made several suggestions along the way and I was more than happy to get everything just right!
