Kelly Fajack Photography

Kelly Fajack is the best photographer I’ve worked with in Los Angeles. I have shot twice with him… an advertising/​lifestyle job and an editorial job. He shoots in natural light and he gets absolutely beautiful stuff. He’s a great guy to work with, as well. Easy-​going, gives helpful direction and just basically has a good heart. It’s never about his ego. All he cares about is getting the best photograph possible. I can’t wait to work with him again.

Kelly is very professional and creative. I have shot with him twice on two totally different concepts and I was exceptionally satisfied with both results! I would recommend anybody to Kelly!!!

I’m a Venice local and I do a lot of commercial work. I was trying to find a local photographer who I could shoot with regularly and my agent referred Kelly.
He’s amazing. We were only supposed to do a few beauty shots of a new line of watches I was working, and models wearing them, but we ended up shoot all morning.
He’s got a great eye and I can’t wait to work with him again. We laughed the whole time and he kept showing me how great the shots were throughout.
Plus he’s down the street from me and know the neighborhood inside and out!
Kelly rules!

just had pictures done by Kelly and my print agent was thrilled at the results. He is easy going and a pleasure to work with. He is not your average «actor turned headshot photographer.» He studied at Brooks Institute and given his excellent photographic eye it shows in the results.

I love working with Kelly! I always get the best images! I’ve been working with him since 2008 and I still continue to work with him, because I know that I’m guaranteed amazing photos! Not only is he an amazing and a gifted photographer, I’m having fun and laughing the entire time of the shoot!

1990 was the the year I first started working with Kelly Fajack as his makeup artist. We grew as a team and have produced the highest quality work in advertising, fashion editorial, as well as fashion campaigns that have taken us to exotic locations around the world.
Speaking on a personal note, not only is Kelly an extremely gifted and talented artist, he is also funny, smart, caring, generous and has integrity.
If great images is what you want, you don’t need to look any further. Spectacular, Amazing, Current!

I have to agree with everyone who only said good things about Kelly. From beginning to end, Kelly was extremely kind, patient, easy going, and very comfortable to work with. The communication with him was very clear and he offered great direction and even better advice for the industry. He worked with my schedule in setting up a shoot and provided me with the amazing photos soon after. Because of him, I signed with a well-​known talent and modeling agency and have been working since. Literally.
I’ve worked with many photographers, the good, the bad, and the just plain rude. I would undoubtedly recommend Kelly Fajack (and actually have quite a few times). No question about it.

What can I say except, EXCELLENT! I was recently cast/​hired on a print job and Kelly Fajack was the photographer. The energy on the shoot was so great and the pictures are amazing! His crew was very professional AND fun! The hair and makeup team was the BOMB, and the lunch and snacks were great, too. I appreciated that they asked my agency ahead of time if I had any special food requirements, which I do. They did everything they could to make the day GREAT!
I’m so glad that I got to work with Kelly Fajack, and my agency was so happy, too! The images came out so good, and I’m very proud to have them in my book. I really hope we get to work together again, some time.

Kelly is such an awesome, fun photographer. He definitely knows how to make pixel magic. I’ve done numerous shoots with him and am always impressed with the final results. He is a total pro and always gets that perfect shot no matter what. I love how easy going he is and it’s always a comfortable, fun shoot.

I had the pleasure of shooting a lifestyle campaign with Kelly. His eye for lighting and framing was impeccable and I found myself excited to see the work before the shoot was even over. He has a great knack for art direction and is very helpful from consultation to pre production to post!
As an African model many photographers fail at capturing the beauty in our skin and facial features. With Kelly, I was truly glowing!
Kelly is personable and professional. Communication is as easy as an email or phone call, and I received photos for the project in a quick time frame.
I would recommend any advertiser or company to have Kelly shoot their campaign, lookbook or project because he is versatile: he is a true artist but has also mastered commercial lifestyle and beauty. I also encourage actors to get their headshots done with him. He never sacrificed personally and unique beauty for «perfection» or «the look» that most other actors and models all have.
In addition to world class photography from a world traveler (you will enjoy his epic stories from exotic travel) you get to enjoy your shoot in sunny Southern California in the popular abbot kinney area of Venice, moments from the beach!!!
He goes above and beyond in his work and comes highly recommended.
Thanks !!!

I paid for 3 looks with Kelly. I’ve paid for two other shoots with him in the past that were very good. This time, he was HORRIBLE.
First of all, he was on his phone texting every chance he got, second, he was not helpful AT ALL with the process. I’m an ex model, haven’t modeled in years and asked for info to get ready and he had NO tips for me at all. Usually photographers will send a list of tips.
The bottom line is this: he was clearly not excited about the shoot and did a poor job. The photos were horrible– I looked uncomfortable which is exactly how he made me feel. He also recommended a makeup artist who was TERRIBLE. I could have done a better job myself. Ugh.
Alas. A waste of $ 450 for 3 terrible photos that I can’t even use. I told him I was very unhappy and he did not offer to reshoot, which any good photographer would be happy to do in order to provide good customer service. Instead he told me to pick my 3 looks and he would photoshop them. I’m thoroughly disgusted and will NEVER recommend him. He did not even TRY to make the situation right. What a disappointment.
What sucks is that he USED to be good.
