About Me

This is me playing in the shorebreak at Sandy Beach in Hawaii. Surfing & Bodyboarding guided me to photography.

Anthony Tamayo, Owner & Principal Photographer of TMJ Photography, was born in California, raised on Guam & currently resides in honolulu

My passion for photography started while I was surfing & bodyboarding with my friends around the year 2000. The scene was so beautiful, I just had to photograph it. God bless my mama because when I asked her to, she bought me a 35mm film camera with two kit lenses. Fast forward to today: I've shot thousands of different events, travelled far & wide & met so many awesome people. I have been truly blessed to do what I love for a living. I was born to do photography.

Testimonials

Bride and groom with family in downtown Honolulu Hawaii

““Hiring Anthony to capture our special day was one of the best investments we made for our wedding! His work is absolutely stunning. I think the best part about working with him was that he really LISTENED to what we thought was important, what we wanted. We felt so comfortable in front of his camera. I have recommended him to other friends and would hire him again. He’s our family’s first choice.””
