18 Years of experience

Originally from NYC, I studied art history at the College of Staten Island, and spent most of my free time at the Metropolitan Museum of Art obsessing over the works of such great artists as Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini and Joseph Mallord William Turner.


After exploring and practicing with many artistic mediums, I was able to return to photography with a new understanding and vision for my works; an expression of realism with hints of romanticism.

    Jay was really responsive and willing to accommodate our requests for both our engagement photos and our wedding day photos. He was able to capture very dramatic and cinematic pictures that we will cherish forever. His services are a great value and we would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. He's also a really nice guy.

    5 star service from start to finish!


    We are so glad we chose Jay to be our photographer! I work in fashion and spend a lot of time looking through images. There's a big difference between good and amazing. I wanted amazing images of my wedding day (who doesn't?). I must have looked at 20 different photographers, and when really looking at their images, I wasn't impressed. But wow, Jay is actually an artist. His images are exactly what I wanted. Just look for yourself. It's plain as day. He's also very professional and responsive. Wedding planner loved working with him too... oh, and the entire bridal party, actually. He kept us laughing and having fun while we were taking photos. That was a huge plus!

    Absolutely amazing!


    My fiance and I recently contacted Jay for an Engagement photoshoot. Jay not only helped us pick the location based on what we were looking for, but also helped us finalize the time of the day when we would get the best lighting. That really made us feel we were in good hands as we knew very little about all this. Jay was extremely professional and we had a flawless photoshoot. Our pictures came in a week's time and the pictures are just amazing and beautiful. I'd highlighly recommend Jay Resh photography to the new couples out there and to anyone who's looking for a photshoot. )
