about
I am a San Francisco based lifestyle and editorial photographer that has shot for over 200 commercial brands and more than 70 editorial titles across the U.S. and Europe. My assignments span people, automotive, apparel, action sports, and corporate work in Silicon Valley. Aside from commercial jobs, much of my personal work is inspired by California culture. Elemental Magazine once wrote, “he shoots the crazy sh*t,” while an early issue of Garage Magazine said, “Jay came to California to raise free range artichokes.” Some of these things are true.
Despite those claims, I’ve been interviewed on photo industry podcasts like PhotoFocus, and contributed to tutorials for the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, Lexar Memory, Nikon USA, Rangefinder Magazine, and Westcott Lighting. I currently live in the Bay Area, and I am originally from Baltimore, MD.
Additional assignment work can be found on the blog and press page. Call 415-595-5348 or email for availability on an assignment.
