Light and Lens Studios | Branding Photography | Glens Falls NY
Jess Keller, owner of Light & Lens Studios in Glens Falls, NY
I walked into the door of the new Light and Lens Studios in Glens Falls and immediately felt like I had entered such a calming, collaborative space. The studio that Jess Keller has handcrafted, from the dark room to the rentable studio space and the community room and gallery adorned with photographs of other photographers and equipment for use just glows with the energy they have put into it.
There was another photographer in the studio when I arrived, Bill from Adirondack Alive Photography. I said hello, and the three of us chatted like old friends, though we had just met. It’s so special to encounter a place where photographers and artists can gather and help to lift each other up, not compete with each other. While standing in the darkroom, Bill and I talked about how there is plenty of work for everyone, and when we have a network of photographers that we have relationships with, we can refer clients to each other. This community is beautiful and uplifting, and to see the space that Jess has created to foster that sense of unity is truly beautiful.
I am so honored to have some of my landscape photography up in the gallery there, and I can’t wait to go back to rent the studio space, as well. If you haven’t been, keep up with them on Instagram at @LightandLensGF to follow along with their journey. Cheers to Jess and crafting a community of like-minded creatives!
