Jason is a Kelowna-based photographer and video creator who tells stories about the city through a cinematic lens, finding the golden-hour glow in a glass of Okanagan wine, or the quiet beauty of a gallery opening on a Tuesday night. His audience is mostly BC and Canadian travellers who want to be inspired before they book, and his goal is always to make them feel something, not just see something. Living in Kelowna gives him an insider's eye that goes beyond the highlights and into the heart of what makes this place worth experiencing.
