Photo Shoots in Buena Park, CA

Hi, my name is Jay and I have been a photographer/videographer for the better half of two decades. I started HYLO Events (wedding, engagement, party photography) in 2013, and portsbyjay as my boudoir brand back in 2019; and have also worked closely with some of the top studios in weddings, and established brands in the automotive industry. My passion is creating artistic visuals primarily using natural light, but have extensive knowledge with off camera flash. I primarily shoot with the Sony ecosystem, and currently am using the A7RIII for photos, and the A7SIII for video. I do all the editing and retouching myself (disclaimer: I am not a master retoucher), which gives me a more expansive view on what could be improved on during the photoshoot phase. My prices are competitive without sacrificing quality. I do have a bit of a type-A personality, so I pay particular attention to the details, especially for weddings! I compose myself with a fun, yet professional manner at all times (doesn't matter the circumstances). Working boudoir and weddings for numerous years has really taught me about professionalism and a committed work ethic.

I am passionate about creating images that truly reflect the most beautiful version of who you are. I take the time to understand your personality and what you want to convey, so each image feels authentic and unique to you. My favorite images to capture are portraits but I also really enjoy shooting couples, maternity, events, and lifestyle content. My job is to capture the best part of who you are and bring your vision to life. Can’t wait! I look forward to working with you. Thank you! Lulu

Throughout our photography session, I aim to capture your beauty and uniqueness, ensuring you are portrayed in the most flattering light. I am a published and traveled photographer who specializes in portraiture, lifestyle, and fashion. My most recent work can be seen on my social media page, which I update consistently. Drawing on my experience as a former model, I possess a profound understanding of the dynamics between the lens and the subject. I am committed to making you feel comfortable, providing guidance, and maintaining a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere throughout our shoot. My appreciation for natural lighting is reflected in my work, and I thrive on tailoring each session to the unique requirements of every project.

Capturing precious moments in time to craft unforgettable memories for my clients is truly fulfilling. I love being the one behind the lens capturing these special moments.
