Jay Shoots attended Newhouse School of Communications at Syracuse University in New York, and the New England School of Photography in Boston, Massachusetts. Jay uses his photographs as a way to study how things and people actually look. He uses simple classical compositions, with a large range of color and well-trained use of positive and negative shapes. Shoots wants to reveal the true essence of an object through his photographs, so he combines traditional methods with technological improvements within documentary, formalism and conceptualism. In this way, he finds the spirit of man through his work.
