Welcome to my gallery of photography work from over the last 40 years
I’ve gone down a long road over my 40+ years as a professional photographer facing many creative challenges. I got my start as an intern photographer at the White House during the Carter administration in 1978. After working on both coasts I’ve ended back in Illinois and focus on documentary work, commercial assignments and portraits. Please contact me at jay@jaybryant.com if you need help with a project or photo assignment. The website for my consulting work for Mint Collective is at: https://mintcollective.net/
Here are some of my favorite images:
