Jami, Daysee photographer

Behind the camera

Daysee was started by two Brooklyn moms who wanted to bring back the neighborhood portrait studio.

With over two decades of experience photographing families and little ones all around the world, we bring an authentic yet editorial eye, a lot of patience, and a knack for making everyone feel at ease.

Our work has been featured in The New York Times, Town & Country, Marie Claire, Vogue Business, People and TODAY. We’ve been on Hollywood billboards and Times Square marquees. But the photographs we care about most are yours.
