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. All images are copyright 2023 by Jay Bryant.

Here are some of my favorite images:
Last wedding…
After 20 years I am retiring from my wedding photography practice. Here is an image of the last wedding that I shot in Rockford in November. This image was shot on film with a Konica Omega 200–the same type of camera that started out shooting weddings back in the 1970’s.
