Jiyang Chen Photography

Photographer

I am a New York City fashion and portrait photographer.I am drawn to photography through its powerful storytelling capacity. Coming from a music background as a classical concert pianist, I am sensitive to the spectrum of emotional depth that can be found within the performance of a piece of music, a way of painting with sound on the blank canvas of silence. Similarly, I see a photograph as that canvas for capturing the broad palette and nuanced brush strokes of my subject’s story and emotions. It is an opportunity to capture moments that signify human experiences much larger than the moment itself. Every client of mine has a story to tell, and I pride myself on unearthing that story and capturing it in the process, from initial conception to the final realization. Read more

    Jiyang is without a doubt an exceptionally gifted photographer, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He has a beautifully organic style and composition, and he captures images which are bold, cinematic, vibrant, and engrossing. Each and every photo which he delivers looks like an unparalleled work of art. ...

    I had a photo session with Jiyang a few months ago, and I'm pleased with how my pictures turned out. He's professional, he does his photo shoots efficiently, and he's extremely responsive to emails. Plus, he's very accommodating to students on a budget. ...

    Jiyang is, hands down, one of the most amazing photographers you will ever work with. He could seriously make a rock look beautiful! His artistry shines through in each and every one of his photos, and he knows exactly what he's working with. He'll capture all your best angles and give you a portfolio of incredible shots that'll make you feel like you're a model in Vogue! I really can't recommend him enough.

    Actually he is my friend, a musician/photographer. But I find him the best I've seen. He captures the moment, and even unexpected plain background becomes artistic and alive. His sense of lighting and angles are extremely sensitive, a natural. He doesn't even need to really edit much and the photos come out amazing. Beyond description.
