ABOUT

Hello and congratulations! I have been a pro photographer for over 25 years and of course very much love what I do. Much of my experience and education in photography evolved while living in lower Manhattan, working with editorial, fashion, glamour, photojournalism and still life photographers for Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Interview, Real Simple and Self magazines. I feel my past experience with these various styles of photography is evident in my over all photography style.

I have been told that my images look very life-like, my aim is to capture scenes as the eye sees the scene . Photography to me is about controling light and utilizing available light. The goal is to capture images I want to show right out of the camera with very little need to do post processing, realistic life images.

I photograph weddings, engagements, portraits, concerts, events and more throughout New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida and beyond. I also shoot for Corning Glass and other large entities. Feel free to contact me here regarding non-wedding photo shoots as well.

I currently reside in the Finger Lakes region of NY, one of the most beautiful places on earth. I got my first camera when I was 11 and have been hooked ever since. I love traveling of course, photography has given me the chance to explore many places in the United States as well as other countries. I love hiking, camping, mountain climbing, swimming, boating, star gazing, skiing, family, friends, science, art, music and I love life. Life is short and I am always seeking new experiences, and most of all, capturing it with my camera.

I am honored to have received the 2019 Wedding Wire Couples' Choice Award and The Knot's 2019 Pick Best of Weddings Award.

I am currently booking 2020, 2021 and have very few 2019 dates free. Having a (smaller) weekday wedding? Contact me for an hourly rate! For more information contact me via my contact page, email: jfoote1@mac.com or call 607-227-1168. I hope to hear from you soon!!
