______________
Aloha I’m Jordan. Born and raised here on Maui, I grew up with a passion for art, videography and action sports. My first love, in-line skating, took me around the world, where I had the privilege to compete in the X-Games and all the other major contests. During this time I would produce videos for sponsors and sports segments for TV. As my pro career slowed down my videography career took off. From my first wedding in 2005 to now being Hawaii’s most awarded wedding film studio, it’s been an amazing journey and I’m so grateful for all the success Hi Focused has had. Making wedding films isn’t just a profession for me; it’s an art that I care passionately about.

Aloha I’m Jordan. I have loved film making and art since I was a kid. My actual videography career started when I was a professional inline skater and I would make skate videos for my sponsors. Now years later, I am experienced in everything from simple beach weddings to elegant multi-day weddings, same day edits, commercial projects, corporate events, action sports segments & music videos and I've had the honor of being awarded best wedding cinematographer in Hawaii. It’s been an amazing journey that I’m truly thankful for.

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!!

Jordan and his crew are so talented, fun & easy to work with. They listened to exactly what we wanted, and boy did they deliver. It took our breath away. We were married 10.28.2023 & I still watch our video regularly. They far exceeded our expectations. We are so glad we were able to book with Hi Focused. Jordan's artistic talents are amazing. We also purchased the raw footage, and how quickly he was able to create our beautiful moments and put together the perfect film for us. We are forever grateful and blessed to work with him.

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!

“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!

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.

For a bride who is a professional photographer and a groom who is a documentary producer/editor, we wanted a top-notch director of photography/cinematographer to film our wedding day. And Jordan is exactly that.
We were thrilled to have HI Focused whose professionalism, attention to detail and fun personalities made the planning days easy and our special day even more fun.
The visuals that Jordan created are worth every penny. The drone work was efficient and stunning.
We now have these lasting, 4K video memories that we will be able to replay for years to come.
Jordan's shooting style is cinematic, intimate and personal – a true fly on the wall – allowing you to enjoy the time as newlyweds while not even realizing someone is making an award-winning quality film about your wedding.
Also, the sound quality! People often overlook sound when watching these visuals on Instagram -- but pay close attention. The ceremony, the speeches, the natural sounds throughout the day were crisp and clear.
We highly recommend working with HI Focused to film your wedding, proposal, and/or any special occasion. It will be done with care and high-quality professionalism.

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.
Attached a screenshot from our dreamy beautiful video.

Jordan was the videographer for our daughter's Kauai wedding, and he is phenomenal. From our first meeting, he was the ultimate professional, asking very specific questions to ensure that he captured every shot we wanted. During the ceremony and reception, he was reassuring and unobtrusive, working seamlessly with our photographer. The end result? His drone footage is spectacular, and the videos, delivered in record time, are amazing! We wanted a short, 7 minute, and long version, and they were all so close to perfect, including the music, that we only asked for one tiny change. That never happens! Jordan is a great storyteller, and captured the emotion, the joy, and the beauty of every moment. I didn't cry at the wedding, but I cried when watching the videos. In my marketing job, I've worked with many fabulous LA and NYC videographers, but Jordan is simply the best!

We are so incredibly happy that we chose Hi Focused for our wedding day! Our wedding films have been the best investment that we made for our wedding! The product and quality of the films that Jordan has produced for us are incredible.
From the beginning, Jordan has been very kind and considerate of our wants and needs out of what we wanted filmed. Along with his 2nd shooter Amber, they were both so fun to work with for the entire day of our wedding! They made us feel so comfortable and made filming so easy and enjoyable.
Jordan’s final product of our film and documentary seriously took our breath away. We are so in awe of the level of high quality footage and attention to detail that Jordan put into our film. He was able to capture the essence of all of the emotions from our wedding day and really let us relive our day like it was a fairytale story. This is how we wanted our film to look and feel like and you can truly see that not only from our film, but all the other films we watched when choosing our videographer. We were so lucky and blessed that we chose the amazing work of Hi Focused to capture our memorable day!

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. I don’t know how Jordan fit 8 hours of footage into a 6 minute video without missing a thing but that’s what sets him apart. 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 films are stunning. There is just no comparison. Take a look at Jordan’s previous work because that is all it took to convince us to choose Hi Focused for our wedding day.
Jordan is extremely professional and captured the day perfectly. He proactively worked with us to find out what was important to us and what we wished to capture. We wanted him to capture the beauty of the historic Olowalu Plantation House and the more genuine moments during our wedding day. The result was perfection. He even got us our wedding video in (what has to be) record time - less than a week!
We are so glad to have hired Jordan as our videographer for our wedding. We went with the signature package and purchased the raw footage too. We can’t stop watching the wedding film on repeat. To be able to re-live such a special day captured by Hi Focused is a must have for all wedding couples!

I could not have asked for a better team of videographers than Jordan and his team. They were truly amazing to work with. Jordan was extremely communicative throughout the entire process. His team who I worked with on my wedding was phenomenal. They were not only super professional but they were fun! They took any stress and hassle away and handled everything. I honestly could not have asked for a better team. Lastly, the turn around time from the wedding to video was faster than I expected and it was absolutely perfect. I think I’ve watched it over a dozen times already ha. But seriously, they were amazing and I would recommend to anyone! Especially to brides who are planning a destination wedding and may be hesitant to booking a vendor they don’t know.

HI Focused filmed our Feb 2023 wedding at the beautiful Olowalu Plantation House on Maui. My wife and I were blown away at how the wedding video captured the magic and beauty of our special day. We've shared it with many family and friends, and the sentiment was the same. Just "Wow!" This was not your typical wedding video, and Jordan was able to tell the story of the day through his creative eyes. To top it off, we received the video 6 days after the wedding while we were still on our honeymoon and cried when watching it. We couldn't be happier for choosing to do a wedding video, and the final product blew away our expectations. Hands down the best wedding video we've ever seen!

If you are looking for TREMENDOUS TALENT + FANTASTIC ARTISITIC VISION then Jordan and his team are a JOY to work with. They work in concert with photographers in such a seamless way. They made us and our wedding party look phenomenal. They gave an exceptional mix of candid and picturesque shots alongside the "feel" of our wedding. There are not enough words that I can string together that would truly convey how thankful I am for their work, effort, and expertise. Turn around time was fast! I bought a 8 minute highlight video and a 1 minute IG preview. Literally had them in less than a week. We loved the music, the way he told our story through his film, and how he integrated music and actual audio from our special day. HIM & HIS TEAM ARE WORTH EVERY PENNY. The quality is undeniable. MANY THANKS!!

It was fantastic working with Jordan. We found Jordan after watching hours of different cinematographers but his films had so much soul and life in them, it was an easy decision to make.
Jordan was friendly, approachable and very easy to reach. He listened to what we wanted, but at the same time maintained professional control over the final product. He was able to implement our vision and more. We are so in love with our wedding film and have received so many compliments from people we’ve shared it with!
We wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to help immortalize our special day.

WOW. Stop right now, and hire Jordan! He knocked it out of the park! My husband and I got married on Kauai, and we told Jordan our vision and he listened to us and made our vision come to life better than we ever imagined. He was super easy to work with. He made sure he had all the details for our special day, listened to what we wanted, and was very quick to respond to our calls and emails. My husband and I are both in the wedding industry, I'm a photographer and he is a DJ. So our expectations were extremely high. Jordan exceeded those expectations. We showed our family our video and they were in tears (as were we) watching it. We are BLOWN AWAY by the beautiful film he did. It's defiantly on repeat ;) Thank you, Jordan for capturing our special day so we can relive it forever.

Hiring Jordan’s company to capture our special day was one of the absolute best decisions we made for our wedding. When browsing the websites I knew they were perfect as I was watching videos of complete strangers and crying! From the moment I spoke to Jordan on the phone I noted his passion and dedication to capturing our memories.
He was professional and excellent with communication leading up to and on the day of our wedding. Jordan was very pleasant and easy to work with.
Our wedding film was sent to us much quicker than we expected and we were blown away! It came in an adorable wood keepsake box as well. It was incredible to view our special day from another perspective. We both cried again (so did everyone else we sent it too). We love having this video that so perfectly captured the love, spirit and beauty of our wedding on Maui.

We planned our dream wedding in Maui. After enduring two and a half years of COVID, we wanted our families and friends to experience something that allowed them to feel normal again. It was so important to capture this experience, so we asked our wedding coordinator to recommend a list of videographers. We had several choices, but there was really only one that stood out, Jordan and his team at High Focused.
Jordan has a vision. He has a great team and years of experience. There were no surprises and the entire process was seamless. He is an excellent communicator, and has an artistic style and personality that make you feel that his job is one less thing that you need to be concerned about. He worked very well with our wedding coordinator and our photographer. He also has great skills in drone videographer and captured some wonderful sweeping shots of the beautiful venues in Maui. He is not cheap, but the cost was more than worth it. There is nothing more important than having a movie-quality recording of the most important day in your lives. His turn-around-time for production of the final cut was very good. Everyone that saw our wedding video loved it and we were showered with compliments. We will never stop watching it and we are so thankful that we chose High-Focus. You can not go wrong with Jordan. We highly recommend him and his team.. Thank you Jordan for capturing the most important event of our lives.
Mahalo:)

As soon as I saw Jordan's work I knew I had to hire him for our wedding. It's well worth the money and Jordan and his team are really nice and professional. They did their absolute best to get the best footage. They worked well with my photographer and our wedding video turned out better than I ever dreamed. I'd recommend HiFocused to anyone planning their wedding. You won't regret it.

Our wedding video turned out better than we ever imagined - all thanks to Jordan and his team at Hi Focused!
When initially planning our wedding, my wife and I were on the fence about hiring a videographer because we were unsure whether we really needed a wedding video. We had hired an amazing photographer and thought that this might suffice. After chatting with Jordan on the phone, we decided that a wedding video would be really special. And choosing to work with Hi Focused was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
We are convinced that Jordan is an exceptionally talented videographer who just happens to be incredibly professional and kind. Our wedding video turned out beautifully thanks to Jordan's amazing artistry and skills - the sound quality, drone footage, and high definition video quality were all top-notch and quite frankly, spectacular! Jordan and his colleague, Amber, were so fun to work with and they provided great tips on how to best pose for the camera. They were also very familiar with our venue (Merriman's Kapalua) and knew all the prettiest locations and best times to film at. We highly recommended choosing Hi Focused to be your videographer team on your special day!

My husband and I have wanted to work with Jordan Nagasako of HI Focused since we started planning our dream Maui wedding last year. Jordan is an incredibly talented cinematographer and storyteller. He captured every perfect moment of our dream wedding, exceeding our expectations for our wedding video. Jordan was easy to communicate and work with, and he delivered our full wedding video, raw video footage, and previews in less than two weeks. Jordan also provided short video snippets for me to use across my personal branded social media channels. As a content creator, I appreciated his thoughtfulness in providing me with different types of content for my personal branded social media channels.
We hope to work with Jordan again for our 5th or 10th year wedding anniversary celebration. We highly recommend working with Jordan Nagasako of Hi Focused if you're looking for a cinematographer to capture your special day.

Cannot say enough exceptional things about Jordan and his team. Just amazing on every level. We chose Hi-Focused because of Jordan's eye for great shots and his final video did not disappoint, capturing every moment we knew and didn't even know would happen. This is the difference between a videographer and a true artist, and he captured the spirit and love of our day so perfectly. His turnaround time was very quick and the end product is something I would never have dreamed I would be a part of and Jordan captured every moment of that. Thank you so much for taking part in our day and it was a pleasure having you be a part of our wedding!

We selected HI FOCUSED for our destination wedding on Maui and we are so pleased with the work Jordan and his team provided throughout the process, from planning, the wedding, and afterwards! We received a questionnaire to provide an overview of our day and a follow up call to review and provide additional specific details we wanted to make sure were filmed. HI FOCUSED captured everything and more! It was a pleasure to work with them, their attention to detail and various shots and techniques, and editing made our video so so special! We will be showing this at our local reception back home and look forward to sharing it with our family and friends. Thank you HI FOCUSED!

We had the most perfect day on our wedding day thanks to Jordan and the team at HI FOCUSED Cinematography! I felt truly listened to through out all of our communication with Jordan before, during and after the wedding. On the day of our wedding I was able to enjoy every moment and I never felt rushed or uncomfortable. Jordan and his team were able to capture so many amazing moments and the result is a true masterpiece! Jordan is very professional, but also patient and kind and his energy put me at ease through out the while process. We love to rewatch our wedding video and share it with friends and family who could not be there with us. It felt like a movie and we are so lucky to have the video to look back on our special day. So happy and thankful for Jordan and the team and could not have had a more perfect wedding day!

Jordan at HI Focused was nothing short of amazing. He showed up with a great attitude and paid attention to detail. He had all the necessary equipment to get the best shots and angels. He captured every moment we wanted to have filmed. He exceeded my expectations with the final video. What was most impressive was how quick he edited and produced the film. He had it sent to me before I had even left the island to return home (within a week) He also allowed me to request changes to the video and was very quick and prompt in responding to me. He went above and beyond my husband and I in providing us our vows for my grandma to see since she couldn't make the wedding due to covid. Jordan thank you for going above and beyond for me and my husband. I have watched the video 3 thousand times and I love it very much!!! If we ever have anything we need to be filmed in the future, he would be worth the money to fly out to California. best on the island, we love him!!!!!!!

Hello Jordan,
We wanted to take this time to truly thank you for being a part of making our proposal so memorable and epic! Even if we had imagined the perfect proposal it would not have come close. Thank you so much for all of your hard work that you put into the planning, the cinematography, and photography . We have now watched it more than 100 times, each time with tears of joy in our eyes. Our family and close friends were mesmerized by all of your hard work — “this is amazing”; “this video is like Kobe level greatness “; “I feel like I’m watching an episode of the OC”— that’s just a few of the MANY compliments we have been receiving from loved ones. Some folks were even brought to tears! It meant so much to us that you finished it so quickly. Your patience, communication, coordination, level of craftsmanship, and grace was invaluable. Nothing short of remarkable. Thank you again for being a part of the beginning of our life together. You will always be in our hearts and our story.
Kind regards,
Jason and Rediat

Jordan was a pleasure to work with, and the final product is amazing. The attention to detail, and customer service were exceptional. It's been over a year and we still watch the video all the time. All our family remarked on how high quality the video was. My cousin showed it to a group of friends, and they thought it was a reality TV show about weddings in Hawaii. Jordan and his crew went above and beyond to capture our special moment. Highly recommend !

Jordan and Amber were such an awesome team to work with. They were fun and friendly and made us feel comfortable and at ease. They had us laughing throughout the entire time we were with them.
Jordan was very communicative and got us on a call before our big day to go over all of the details to make sure that he understood exactly what was important to us to be included in our video. We received our wedding video within weeks of our wedding and we are beyond AMAZED with it! Everyone we have shared it with has said it looks like a movie! I’ve watched it about 1,000 times already and I’m still astonished every time.
Hi Focused is super professional and we would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for top notch cinematography. Thank you Jordan and Amber for an incredible video and experience that we will cherish for a lifetime!

We were on the fence about hiring a videographer for our wedding as we just weren't sure it was necessary. I'm so glad we did! Jordan worked with us to design a package for exactly what we were looking for and our wedding video captured all the special events. I loved the communication and felt like they tried to get to know us to make it fit our personalities and style. The video is so professional with seamless transitions, beautiful music, gorgeous areal shots with a drone (yes - wow!), and flawless editing. Also, the turn around time was so fast! I could go on and on...nothing but positives to say about them.

I'll keep it real, this team is beyond amazing. During the planning process, they were very patient and transparent. I didn't know much about Maui, so they listed pros and cons of the various areas.
On the day of my proposal, we got rained out. HI FOCUSED team reached out to me early, and gave me the option to cancel or try a different location. They gave multiple location recommendations with their extensive knowledge of the area. While communicating with them, there was never a time I felt pressured from them to cancel or choose the alternate location.
I wanted to cancel initially, but thankfully I didn't. We went to the alternate location and the team was already set. My lady was definitely surprised, and the alternate location actually worked out better than the initial spot. The cloud formation, the way the sun set, and even the water not hitting us on the ground reminded us to make the best each situation we'll encounter.
What's real impressive is the turnaround time. Long story short, expected weeks to maybe a month to see the final product. Received in much less time, which was great!
Overall, we follow HI FOCUSED on social media. When watching their past and present work, it takes us back to our moment with feel good vibes and relatability. Highly recommend this team, very well worth it.

Wow thank you for the great review I really appreciate you doing that! And Congratulations...

My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better videographer for our wedding day. Jordan at HI Focused was friendly, professional and efficient. His work speaks for itself - beautiful, cinematic videos that captured the true essence of us as a couple and our wedding as a whole. Communication with him was so easy. HI Focused provided us full day coverage for the day of our wedding, arrived early the day and got great shots of me and my bridesmaids, my husband and his groomsmen, and every small detail you can think of. I know a lot of couples think photos are the top priority but this videography needs to be right there at the top. You do not want to miss out on the most incredible moments of the day and he does an exceptional job of capturing every single one of these moments. Our friends and family were stunned with how well done and professional the video was. Not only did he get that to us within the first week but he also got us our raw footage of the full ceremony and speeches too. Thank you Jordan and his HI Focused team! We are forever grateful and would recommend you to every single person we know. We are so happy to have these videos so we can re-watch for a lifetime!

A videographer is an investment in reliving your wedding day and enjoying the details that are so easily missed. I would 100% make the same decision to pick Jordan and his team at Hi Focused if I had to do it all over again.
I found Hi Focused when I was watching YouTube videos for my destination wedding at Merriman’s. I went from watching for Merriman’s, to only watching Hi Focused videos and I knew I wanted this company to film my wedding. Meeting Jordan (virtually) was fantastic. He asked a lot of questions to understand my wants and vision. The planning call before the wedding was thorough and well detailed. Meeting Jordan and his assistant Amber on the wedding day was fantastic. They were both detail oriented, easy going, and worked wonderfully with our photographer. I have watched and rewatched my video over and over. Unlike the beautiful flowers at our wedding, this video is something I will use and cherish for the rest of our lifetime.
Thank you, Jordan and Amber, for capturing our day and delivering the most incredible video.
