Hire the Best Digital Photographers in California

Diligent photography and digital marketing professional who graduated from the University of San Francisco; passionate about history, politics, food, sports, and music.

JY Studio is a San Francisco Bay Area photography studio specializing in corporate and commercial photography and videography. I help businesses and professionals showcase their brand, team, and events through clean, modern, and impactful images.

I’m a San Francisco-based photographer and videographer creating modern visual content for brands, founders, nonprofits, real estate teams, and creatives across California—especially the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and Palm Springs. With 6+ years of experience, I specialize in hybrid photo and video production: brand photography, short-form video, cinematic B-roll, social content, real estate visuals, event coverage, and optional drone capture. My approach combines strong composition, natural light, clean editing, and story-driven content that feels polished, intentional, and built for today’s digital platforms. I regularly work with clients who need more than just photos or video alone—they need versatile content that works across websites, campaigns, social media, and marketing. I’m comfortable leading shoots, capturing candid moments, creating refined visuals, and adapting to the pace and needs of each project. My work spans real estate, architecture, hospitality, lifestyle branding, headshots, events, and documentary-style storytelling. I aim to make every shoot feel smooth, collaborative, and creatively dialed-in.

Composition, heart, and dedication. Fluent in visual language. Based in Northern California, I am always refining my craft and evolving my style. I love capturing the aliveness in people and the worlds they live in. Both my creative passion and my professional ambition drive my artistic goals and career expansion. I have a BA from UC Davis in Art Studio and Art History. I am also passionate about the outdoors and my current full time job is in utility forestry. Because I’m currently building my freelance portfolio, you get a collaborator who is excited to experiment and dedicated to elevating your project with my best work!
