Reviews From Our Clients 

"Jan Cartwright has been taking promotional and production photos for Open Book Theatre for over 7 years.  She always captures the essence of the show and the characters beautifully. For promo photos she works with us to develop fun ideas in a variety of locations or in studio.  For production photos she takes shots during a run of the show and gets stunning photos that draw the viewer in with movement and emotion.  She understands what makes a good photo, and has the skills to get a great shot even with moody stage lighting and active performers!  She makes her subjects feel comfortable and relaxed for a great experience, and I whole-heartedly recommend her to other theatres!

Jan also takes great headshots. I have seen so many of her shots from actors over the years, and always appreciate how the photos look like the actor and help their personality shine through. She recently took headshots for me and the process was fun, and I'm thrilled with the results."

Krista Schafer, Artistic Director/Owner, Open Book Theatre Company

"Jan is a very talented photographer who brings out the best in not only the photos she captures but her clients. She is very patient and offers very good direction putting you at ease in front of the camera. Jan is a joy to work with and is very dependable and thorough delivering you the best finished quality prints. I would gladly recommend her to anyone."

"Jan took my headshots for me a few years ago, and excellent work holds up. I get calls for major television and film auditions, but they won't even CONSIDER you if your headshot isn't up to par. I recommend her to anyone who needs a quality headshot taken in an easygoing, relaxed, friendly atmosphere (because tension WILL show in a picture, and that's no good for a headshot); I've recommended her to everyone, from acting colleagues to my parents (who are both preachers and occasionally need to send out a photo for revivals, conferences, etc). Also, you won't have to sell an organ to afford her rates: high quality photos, delivered on time AND affordable. Thank you, Jan!"

"Jan did a great job taking professional photos for me to use for on-line dating. She is a real professional. She was prepared for me, used her best judgement to capture the right angle, and especially the warmth I was hoping to convey. She nailed it! She also made me feel very comfortable and at ease in her home studio. Thank you, Jan!"

"I have worked with Jan Cartwright for many years. She is an incredible photographer. As a theatre director, Jan is my go to person to take headshots of my actors for upcoming productions. I would put her work against any other professional photographer. She is punctual, prepared and creates a great rapport with her subjects. I have also seen other still photography she has taken. She can find the beauty in anything and capture the moment."

Alan Ellias, Director/Actor

"Jan is a brilliant photographer and all-around lovely person. I first worked with her in theatre, where her photos always turn out beautifully and capture the emotion of the scene so well. I was grateful to see she also handles corporate portrait services, as my company was in need of updated headshots. We've used her services for the past few years and the photos always turn out so well. She makes everyone feel comfortable and is great at guiding them in posing so they look their best. Thanks, Jan!"
