I studied and worked as an actor in New York and LA, never imagining that I’d build a professional career as a headshot photographer. That changed when I had the chance to photograph a “business of acting” class as a test of my skills and a way to build a portfolio. I photographed one person a day for a month, sharpening my abilities. By the end of that month, I discovered a natural talent for helping people feel comfortable in front of my camera, resulting in relaxed, spontaneous headshots that caught the attention of agents and casting directors. I’m now known throughout the industry for capturing high-quality images that reflect each person’s unique personality.
Today, I live on the Lower East Side with my wife, Ann, who has been my makeup artist since I launched Jeremy Folmer Photography, and our daughter, Emma. I still take on acting roles when they come up, and I deeply respect the dedication New York actors bring to this business. I understand what it takes to create outstanding headshots.
During our session, my focus is solely on delivering the highest quality images. I’ll keep shooting until I’m confident that you have a range of excellent shots to choose from. My attention to detail and laid-back personality consistently help me produce headshots that capture your unique essence. Thank you for taking the time to review my portfolio—I look forward to working with you soon.
