WILLIAM WANG

When William first started his career in photography, he had a dream to take photos of people
who occupy the 1% position in the world from their respective fields.After gaining experience
in the photography industry in Korea, he came to Hawaii and decided to capture the stories
of the many people who make up his new home. Becoming an American citizen made
William realize that he is living in a country fifty times larger than his birthplace, which gave
him an even bigger dream to pursue.

Sustainable professional image work for your success

Emptiness in the HeartRight now, you are in a situation where everything is ready for your new dream. However, there is always something more that only you feel, and that emptiness cannot be filled. This is because there is no image that represents you.So no matter how much you write about yourself or create a story on social media, that emptiness cannot be filled.
You can express yourself by your appearance and writing, but still, you do not have a symbolic image that represents you.
Photos are different from videos. Videos have a step of pause that requires play, but photos are always displayed instantly with text and leave a first impression on the viewer's mind the right way.This is like a lasting memory of good or bad experiences when you first see something as a child.One representative photo has a strong power. It works on people's recognition and subconscious memory, like a company's brand image or representative color.Successful companies or personal brands have an image that represents them that you can come up with that image in your mind instantly.One photo tells more than a hundred words.The emptiness you still feel can be fulfilled with a representative photo taken by a professional in the commercial field.
The Reality of HawaiiWhat is the reality of Hawaii? The only photography industry for weddings and tourists has been developed in Hawaii, and unfortunately, this is not for our local people.
We need to express ourselves in our own life and not just pretend to be visitors in Hawaii.
The prices are also geared towards tourists, which doesn’t align with our local people. We don’t need background photos that commemorate our life except family photos.
Because we are residents here, not tourists.
My thoughts on the Hawaii photography marketAfter living on Oahu for 10 years, I feel that our Ohana also needs infrastructure for a still image like that of a major city on the mainland. However, everyone seems to have given up on it.The first reason is that it's difficult to find a suitable commercial photographer. Like I said, most of the photographers here focus on family portraits, and it's hard to find a professional with various experiences in commercial photography.The second reason is self-doubt. "People say it's just Hawaii, we are living in a small town. "It's such a shame.We don't have a proper commercial photography industry here, especially not like in major cities such as New York, California, and Seoul on the mainland. Why would you want to confine yourself to a life without change? This isn't about the change of space or region. You don't need to reject the benefits which you deserve for your quality of life in beautiful Hawaii.The reason why you need WilliamNow, let me introduce William to you.
