I worked with Jay several times in my capacity as Director of Marketing and Communications at a San Francisco-based nonprofit. We had headshots taken for our 50+ person leadership team and our Board of Directors on a separate occasion. Both were in different locations (corporate offices, not ours), and Jay was solution-oriented and able to roll with the punches. Jay is quick to respond, punctual, professional, and makes everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. He was happy to learn more about our org and our photography needs, and the headshots came out great!

I needed new headshots and Jay's work was perfect! He's an expert in lighting and setting up the perfect shot. He set expectations to help me prepare and everything went very smoothly. I now have a set of fantastic and up to date headshots. I was thrilled with the outcome.
