CEEJAY TALAM

Born and raised in Makati, Philippines with a thirst for adventure. I came to Los Angeles, California when I was 14 and I have always have a knack for taking pictures. Passionate, determined, and ambitious are the three qualities that define me as a person. I am a portrait photographer who takes great pride in capturing the true spirit and personality of the people and subjects that I photographed. I appreciate the people I meet, the places I go, the hours I keep, and spontaneity in every shoot.

I appreciate the raw reality of everyday life and the small things that makes up this beautiful world we live in and the fleeting beauty of those in between moments, and I do my very best to take every picture with that in mind. Through my lens I want to capture special moments with true emotion and translate them into art. I love to show real life. I want my viewers to relate to my photography through recognition of and familiarity with situations, the emotions, and the energy so much that they wonder if they are looking at a picture of someone they know. These are the moments we will treasure forever.
