Rachel Parker | Actress

"The key to great shots is being relaxed and having fun. Jeff gives you that comfort level shooting because he is down to earth and passionate about his work. I just booked a big International campaign through Grey Advertising after working with Jeff..."
Mick LeRoy | Actor/ Model

"Whether you are just starting out or, like me, an older, second career
actor, getting good headshots is an essential investment. Like any essential investment, the process can be fraught with anxiety and misgiving. The gentle magic routinely practiced at Jeffrey Hornstein's studio on 39th will dispel those feelings, and you'll find yourself working with a man who, like a good director, works to bring out the best in you, moment by moment. I emerged with the best headshots I have ever had."
Oliver Conant | Actor

"I contacted Jeffrey for a corporate headshot photo. Not only was he extremely professional, but he and his team immediately put me at ease. During the shoot he gave me pointers about which looks were best, and I especially liked the fact that he would take small breaks and review the shots he had taken thus far with me. I couldn't believe how quickly the process went - most photographers I interviewed ask for 4-5 days before they will even show you the proofs, but I was able to view the pictures with Jeffrey immediately after the session. Highly recommended!"
Sarah K.

"Jeffrey Hornstein is the only photographer I've worked with that captures the true essence of the actor."

"I loved working with Jeffrey Hornstein as a headshot photographer. The process was very relaxed and fun. He encouraged me to put as much of my personality as I could into my expressions and the results were beautiful pictures that really look like the best version of me.

Christine Donlon | Actress

"Jeffrey is a brilliant photographer! I love my photos!"
Jennifer Bassey | "All My Children"

"Dear Jeffrey...Got great news. Everyone that sees my pictures is in awe at how great they are. I have given out all your business cards. I am getting calls from everyone to interview and work, after they receive a picture in the mail. A casting director actually told me the pix show my 'star potential', and I will get tons of interest from them. She also said I will book more print jobs and commercials than I can handle!!! Thanks again. I knew you were the perfect photographer from the time I saw your book and met you. You just really get it-or got it!"
Ben Stevens | Actor

"I can't say enough great things about my experience with Hornstein Studios! Not only was the experience wonderful, but I couldn't be happier with the pictures. My only problem was that I had too many great shots to choose from! Jeffrey has such an amazing eye, he knew exactly what he needed from me right away, which made the shoot so productive and relaxed. I was looking for a photographer that not only made me feel comfortable, but could really capture a sense of ME in my pictures. Jeffrey did just that. I am so excited to see the response that my new headshots get me."
Holly Greenberg | Actor

"Hi Jeffrey! I just wanted to say thank you so much for the amazing headshots. This is the first time that I actually love my pictures and everyone else that has seen them loves them too. So thank you for the great headshots, it was a great experience and I plan to tell everyone about how incredible your work is."
Alex | Actress

"I have worked with Jeffrey Hornstein since 1995, and one consistently positive comment I have had from Casting Directors was: "You look just like your headshot!". The fact that I looked GOOD in my headshots was a plus too! Jeffrey is very easy to work with, and the consumate professional. I have referred many actors to him in the past ten years, and every one of them called me after their session to say how happy they were with the results."
Carl Bradford | Actor

"Jeff, I can't tell you how happy I am with my headshots!!! You're the man!!!...those other photographers in NYC don't stand a chance against your skills and knowledge."
Lincoln Centeio | Actor

"Jeffrey! Thank you so much for the AMAZING headshots. I seriously cannot thank you enough.

Thank you thank you thank you!"
Lauryn Sullivan | Actress

"To shoot with Jeffrey is to get results because he is so easy and fun to work with--whether you're a celebrity or just starting out."
Paul Dawson | Actor starring in John Cameron Mitchell's "Short Bus"

"I just wanted to let you know that when I met with several commercial agents this week at an event at Weist-Barron, several of them commented that I had a great headshot and asked who took the photo. Also, a photographer, whom I did not know, stopped me in the hallway to tell me that he had seen my shot in a pile of other headshots and that mine stood out from the rest because it was very good. Anyway, I wanted to spead the good words because they made me feel good and I hope they do the same for you. Hopefully they will translate into work for the both of us!"

Every photograph he takes is a constant source of delight, surprise and inspiration."

I've recommended you to so many people as they have not stopping raving about how amazing my headshots are.

It was a pleasure meeting and working with you, and thank you again for such great pictures."

Nina Transfeld | Actress

"Jeffrey Hornstein is a true artist with vision--but he never let's his amazing eye for detail or his sense of subtlety infringe in any way on the person he's shooting. He always manages to get "the person behind the eyes" and goes out of his way to make his clients relaxed and comfortable. In a city filled with professionals his work consistently stands out as beautiful and unique. He is a treasure."
Myim Rose, Moby vocalist, featured artist "Women who Rock Magazine", two time Village Voice Choice "Pick of the Week"

"Jeffrey is the BEST photographer I have ever worked with! I always call him whenever I'm working with a celeb who needs great publicity shots. He just photographed Pat Cooper for the cover of his bio "How Dare You Say How Dare Me" Foreword by Jerry Lewis. "
Steve Garrin | Producer

"Meeting Jeffrey Hornstein was the best thing that happened to my acting and modeling career. I was looking for a great photographer to take a headshot of me to really capture people's attention and not only has Jeffrey Hornstein's work done that for me, it has catapulted me into a great position in my career as an actor, model and entertainer. The headshot he took of me has been what I call the 'magical headshot'. I have booked all my jobs because of the headshot. Everytime I book a job the producers tell me that they really like the headshot and it gets their attention. This headshot is like my visa to booking jobs. I strongly recommend Jeffrey Hornstein as the photographer to work with. He is a great person, has a nice personality and gives you freedom to be creative."
Femi Olagoke | Actor

"I have to tell you how DELIGHTED my agent is with our pictures!!! Thank you for a most successful shoot! Worth waiting for."
Elizabeth Shepherd| Actress

"I place a good amount of importance on recommendations when buying something or dealing with a new person. Hearing and seeing good things about Jeffrey Hornstein's photos, I realized I would be making a wise decision if I scheduled a session with him. After we finished, I was amazed at how many 'money shots' I had taken. I was concerned with being washed out or too shadowed from my light skin, but Jeffrey's keen eye captured my look and gave me pictures I'm glad to show around. He even helped select my wardrobe for optimal effect and I am thrilled with how things turned out. When I like something, I share it with other people who can benefit, and I will be telling people about Jeffrey for a long time to come."
Joseph Christensen | Actor

"Whenever anyone asks me for a referral for a photo session, I think of Jeffrey Hornstein. I have sent many performing musicians to him over the past 10 years, and the results have been excellent -- or better! -- every single time. Jeffrey is a superb photographer. He listens carefully to the needs of his clients. He is open minded and creative in finding ways to bring out the personality of his subjects. He brings a very artful approach to composing a shot. His technical skills are of the highest order. Everyone I have sent to Jeffrey has found him a pleasure to work with through every stage of the process."
Robert Besen | "Besen Arts LLC"

"When I decided to have Jeffrey Hornstein do my headshots I didn't think about the outcome too much. (Of course I hoped the photos would be good.) Well, the headshots were not only good, they were great. I realized he has a gift. It's not just about taking great shots. Jeffrey has an ability to capture the innermost core of who you are and make it come alive. I was amazed. He's a great guy to work with. Needless to say, the proof is in the pudding."
