Mr. Jay Payne is an artist. He has a unique eye for capturing your best qualities and moments. His photographs will be admired and will be cherished by business associates and family members for years to come. His work is worth his fees; even though they are extremely reasonable and flexible. I believe Mr. Payne does photography from the heart and it shows in his work. My repeat experience with Mr. Payne is exceptional and consistent, he does not compromise on the quality of his equipment to the quality of his frames, photos, photo props and always seems to have the most innovative recommendations. I have utilized he services on both on the corporate level and for personal business. I would not think of hiring anyone else, whatever your needs maybe; he rises to the occasion . He makes the experience of your day most enjoyable, bring out the best in you for an unforgettable snap shot in time. I will recommend him for any event without any reservation, he is very skilled and talented individual. He is simply outstanding ! Vito P

Jay work is exceptional . His pictures are beautiful and worked to detail. His work ethic is impeccable. Jay does a lot more for you than the average photographer. First he set up an appointment just to introduce himself and show his work (No pressure, no commitments) and an after session appointment to choose together the best photos for editing. I have taken photos with very many professional photographers and I have never received a service like the one Jay offers. Most of them do not edit the picture and if they do is for an extra charge on each photo. He knows about the best spots in Naples, Bonita Springs, and Estero. He will make sure you get what you want. If you are looking for memorable quality pictures and for outstanding service Jay Payne is your guy. Thank you Jay.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The price I quote consist of me doing your shoot, a quick edit for review, a full edit on selected prints and delivering your flash drive with your selected prints. I also will help you with purchasing prints etc. If the wedding is large I will add a second shooter so we can capture everyone and everything!!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to get a good feel for my client prior to my session. It makes everyone comfortable once that day arrives. I don't rush the session if I schedule a shoot I block out that particular day so if the weather changes or other delays we can still get it in.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a true Nikonian and I try to attend all the photo expos. I'm an active member Professional Photographers of America Member #8329851 and Model Mayhem.
