Creating Magical Images: You Already Have Everything You Need!

Jessica Drossin is a fine art portrait photographer with a powerful penchant for capturing compelling images in unstructured settings—on the fly with only what she has at hand, in natural light. She is a self-taught portraitist, obsessed with telling stories via images, and with teaching others how to look into a scene and see something different than everyone else sees. ‘Improv Photographer’ might be the most accurate title.Her work is published internationally in magazines, books and in the entertainment industry, including clients like Lucas Arts. Jessica even worked for video game companies like Universal Interactive, and Blizzard Entertainment. Wedding Nouveau and Practical Photography magazines have featured her work.

Jessica Drossin has won several awards, including 2013 Emerging Professional Fine Art Photographer (from Digital Photo Pro Magazine). She documented a scoring session for the film, “Red Tails” in Prague an has created book cover art worldwide.

Her go-to camera is her Canon 5DSR, and she creates tutorials, actions, presents, textures and overlays to help other photographers bring their creative visions to life.
