Jeremy Folmer Photography — Local services in New York

I am an actor in NYC and trying to find an excellent photographer is a nightmare sometimes. A talent manager suggested Jeremy Folmer. He had told me he was a great photographer; he would send all of his clients to him. So without hesitation, I made an appointed with Jeremy via his website. Within the day, he got back to me and was very professional and kind. I was thrilled to meet him and talk to him about what I wanted. Finally I met with him and our consultation could not have gone better!!! What was so awesome about it was that after having a friendly conversation, he expressed what he thought would be the best looks for me having observed me just through the few minutes of talking with him. It was pretty incredible and spot on how well he was able to "cast" the looks that would fit me best. I right away made the appointment with him and within the week, we met for the actual shoot. He made it very comfortable and easy to work with especially with someone like myself who is not very fond of taking pictures! I felt at ease and relaxed with him giving me simple directions that allowed me to embrace the experience at its fullest. And I've got to say, the quality of the pictures are phenomenal as well. My manager is thrilled with the quality. I really cant express how outstanding and professional Jeremy Folmer was! Hands down, one of the best photographers this city has to offer!! Do I recommend him to my actor friends who are in need of headshots or a...

I was recommended to Jeremy by multiple sources as I was looking around for professional headshots. When I reached out for more information, he clarified how important professional headshots really were from the industry's perspective, what to look for in a photographers style and choices as well as how I could best tailor a session, anywhere, to best suit some personal career goals. I was blown away at the breadth of his knowledge and felt very comfortable moving forward with him as I took this big step. During the session, there was never a dull moment as he was engaging and very much concerned over how comfortable I felt during the experience. Putting the client at ease and in a positive state is important so their best self shows up as a result and by the end of it I was having a blast. His technical skills are only matched by simple aesthetic principles he employs to best make you pop in your target pictures, which is very unique and so very helpful. Overall the photo shoot was easy, fun and worth every penny. I wholeheartedly recommend Jeremy Folmer to all who desire a simple, fun and rewarding headshot experience to complement their professional career...

A photo session with Jeremy is a unique pleasure. He creates a perfectly comfortable atmosphere in which you're free to let down your masks and allow your true self to emerge, clear and direct. He has a strong sense of light, working with a blend of natural light and photo lights. He has artful insights about wardrobe. He maintains a stream of conversation about film and television and any topic under the sun so that a connection is forged. He gets to know you as a person as he photographs. Woven within the conversation is a lot of encouragement. He’s vocal about what he likes as he sees it, and that's a confidence booster. It’s clear after the session when his first draft of recommendations arrive that he has a keen eye for shots that capture the attention of those who will hire you. I carefully reviewed all 400 choices Jeremy sent me, and I was in complete agreement with the 5 he suggested. Jeremy’s partner, Ann Hamilton, who will do hair and makeup on request, is a major plus: warm, funny, experienced, and talented. Jeremy and Ann are both gifted, working professional actors who understand this headshot process from...
