"I’m Jyo; which is short for Jyo-t-sna of Jyotsna Bhamidipati Photography. I’m a Commercial & Editorial photographer based in Sacramento, Northern California but travel throughout California and Nationally/Internationally for commissioned assignments year round.
I am inspired by the beauty of the environment that surrounds me, greens, world cultures, travel, and the atmospheric textures that encompass our everyday lives and my work often reflects that. There’s something about the messes, finding little glimpses of beauty and joy in the chaos that surrounds us and embracing those little imperfections is what really drives me. I am a passionate storyteller and when my work showcases that; it humanizes everything I photograph.
From environmental portraits to & branding portraits for businesses to creating food images for restaurants and editorials for magazines, I love telling stories visually to make an impact as a powerful narrative through my lens.
We are all huge foodies in our house and I dream of having a Family Cookbook published, one day! Food is our lifeline yes; but to me it’s so much more than that. It’s about the stories of culminating cultures, tales about tradition, learning about our identity through the culture of food, our health and what brings us joy along with nutrition. As a food + lifestyle photographer, I rely on powerful storytelling to bring forward stories from various spaces around the globe. I love working with diverse brands, individuals, restaurants and Chefs who focus on implementing a healthy lifestyle, and brands that work towards our sustainable future. "
