I have over 20 years photographic experience photographing everyday people as well as professional models in the US and abroad, including Latin America and Asia; most recently, almost 3 years in the Philippines. Although now based in Cincinnati, OH I do travel to Philly, NYC, and Tampa every so often.
I do all my shoots by appointment only. Individuals, couples, and groups are welcome. Shoots can be in studio, on-location, or within your own home. Schedule a free consultation with me by contacting me at j.plogman@gmail.com or call (513) 388-7001.
Here's what a reviewer has to say of my work:
The fantastic work of Jay Plogman, where East is Best. His portraits are sensual, vivid and enchanting. His colors, style and positioning are perfection. His Asian influence embraces culture, spirituality and sensitivity. Jay has an amazing talent for bringing everything together and capturing the essence of his models. Each set and each model tells another story, each is soft and inviting. Jay really is an amazing stylish, photographer and artist. -Try State Magazine, 8/31/2009(http://trystatemagazine.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2009-09-09T18%3A40%3A00-07%3A00&max-results=20)

Jay Plogman is an artist who can find your unusual side, discovering
the other beauty hidden inside you. Modeling is group work because
you need to build a link with the photographer and help him to express
his ideas. I feel a strong connection with Jay when he 'makes' his
images. It is a whole experience. -Dayo Litmanovich
Dear Jay,
Thank you so much for all your hard work. We are very pleased with
the pictures. You did an excellent job at capturing the "special"
moments. It was a pleasure working with you.
Sincerely,
