J Esa | Theatre Production & Event Photography

about me

Let’s create photography together 

I've always had a passion for theatre and photography, and I love sharing this with others!

I’m originally from the UK and became a travel writer and photographer in 2016. Since moving to LA in 2023, I’ve joined the local theatre and clown community. Check out Ensemble LA newsletter — my curated guide to the Los Angeles local theatre and creative scene. 

Combining my passions has been incredibly fulfilling and fun, and I bring this excitement to all of my shoots. I look forward to creating photography with you – whether you’re looking for events, theatre, or actor headshot photography in LA.

what it’s like to work together

As an experienced photographer and theatre actor, I know what’s important to artists and what makes a great shot. I’m committed to understanding your needs and offering eye-catching photos that capture the artistry and movement of your performance, and the special moments of your event.

I bring knowledge, passion, and creativity to every shoot.
