Lina Jang Photography Featured in April 2008 Edition of Hawai'i Magazine

Hawai'i magazine is a hip, high quality local Hawaii magazine that publishes articles on entertainment, nightlife, Hawaii economy and politics. It's sort of like New York magazine to us New Yorkers. Anyhow, their latest issue features some of the images I shot from Dawn & Derek's Hawaii wedding back in May. The magazine used my images for article on romance and weddings in Hawaii. I really love the design and layout of the article and the way they used my images.

Mary's Birthday - November 24, 2007

My associate photographers are some of my closest friends. They're like family to me. Every birthday is a special occasion. We celebrated Mary Maris's birthday at one of my favorite restaurants in Brooklyn, MyMoon in williamsburg. The atmosphere and food there is great.

The ambiance at MyMoon restaurant. A lot of the trendy restaurants in Williamsburg are converted warehouses and MyMoon is probably the best of the bunch.
