Pool has 3 Hayward led lights but my 8x8 sundeck is dark at night and needs lighting….Any ideas? Is the only way to go under pavers and through pool shell? Picking up pavers shouldn't be a problem, but I'm not sure about drilling through shell…Any other options?
How would you light a sundeck on pool already done.

I would post a pic of the sundeck and patio area so we can see what you have to work with. Get our creative juices flowing. 
Me? I LOVE the black 3 light pole lights on patios. I think they are SO pretty and they could be just what you need by there.

We put white Christmas lights inside the "roofline" of the whole enclosure. They are perfect, and cost about 8 bucks total in the after Christmas sales.

I like that idea too. We have them around our back decking patio cover (14x40) and they light-up the area extremely well. Today's LED sets are so cost efficient, they use very little wattage.

Fairy lights!! If you line the screen with simple, white Christmas lights it will be oh so pretty and light up everything. You will not even need to use the lights in the pool I bet!

Oh yeah.... I see simple low voltage lights along those ribs of the birdcage.
Skippy and I use a low voltage rope light on the deck railings, plugged into a timer type outdoor extension outlet. They run 8-12 hours a night starting at dusk and are bright enough to light most of the deck. I love the look of them as SKippy has then attached under the top railing of the deck handrails.

Just did this to our pool.
Used these: Feit Electric 710090 48ft LED String Light - - Amazon.com
Also used command hooks with VHB tape but the corners of were coming off so I attached the command hooks with one screw each. We have a screen enclosure as well. So far so good.
Oh and I installed a GFI outlet just in case.

What she said ^^^^ It will not be easy. You will have to drain the pool before you even start. I still like the outside of the pool lights better.
