Masao Okano

Masao thrives on capturing emotional moments. His work is full of big hugs and heartfelt tears.

His favorite times to photograph are the hugs and high-fives right after your ceremony, the two of you together, and all the silly antics of your guests,

His favorite cake? Well, it’s not really cake. He loves key lime pie!


“Masao is a calm and kind human being, which are two important characteristics on what might be a stressful day.”

“Masao captured not just the events of the wedding, but the atmosphere and emotion of the whole day. Our wedding was for immediate family only, but family friends from around the globe have told me how they feel as though they were present because of the beautiful images that Masao captured.”
