Matt Jebbia’s passion for beauty and fashion photography grows with every photo shoot. The results are pristine and dynamic, thanks to Matt’s critical eye for detail and support from his team. Keep your eyes peeled for Matt’s latest beauty shot, and in the meantime check out some of our favorite MJ beauty explorations!
Collaborating between Stylists, Models and Digital Artists to breathe magic into an ordinary product or scenario is my passion. Promoting collaboration with my team at Studio 3 helps take my photos to the next level!
It’s Fashion Friday, which means Matt Jebbia is getting behind the camera to shoot some great fashion photography. This time around he decided to get the whole team involved. Check out this amazing behind the scenes footage, edited by David King.
Our favorite photo shoots here at the studio involve the whole team. We paired it with one of our Martini Thursdays and we had a recipe for success! With feet tapping to some Beyoncé jams our spirits were soaring as Matt Jebbia took the reigns as Photographer and Creative Director. Matt wanted a fun, upbeat shoot to highlight local finds and gorgeous shoes. A word from the photographer on collaboration and shooting with two cinematographers on the same set:
All of the brainstorming sessions and days spent rummaging through vintage clothing stores paid off. With myself behind the camera and two cinematographers filming behind the scenes, it was a bit crazy at times trying to avoid bumping into one another. But once the shoot was in full swing it all seemed to just click. I really enjoyed working with everyone involved. It’s true the best work comes from a collaboration. I absolutely love shooting fashion and all the styling worked together to create a chic, final product that everyone is proud of. Big thanks to model Megan Nuchols, Hair/Makeup artist Celena Rubin, Styling by our own Sarah Ludwig, Cinematographers Andy Maser/David King and thanks to all of the Studio 3 team.
Here are a few snapshots taken while on set.

While Portland may not be perceived as a fashion epicenter like NYC or LA, the fashion buzz surrounding the Pacific Northwest is undeniable. Our independent, eco-friendly atmosphere has led to three of the nine winners of Project Runway to call Portland home at one time or another. As our city gains notoriety in the fashion world, we decided to look back at the long career of photographer Bill Cunningham and his decades of work documenting New York fashion trends.
Feast your eyes on these candid images from Cunningham’s column “On The Street” and be sure to watch the Times produced documentary “Bill Cunningham New York”, click here to see the trailer!
Dana Jonas was getting her fashion photography on! Her good friend Peter Czar designed the epic clothes featured in the photographs. We were also lucky enough to shoot in a beyond gorgeous home, we are talking museum quality, the house was unreal. When we say unreal, it not only was gorgeous, it was full of beautiful props, furniture, knick-knacks and artifacts galore. Couldn’t have set the stage better for this 30’s fashion photography shoot. As most fashion photography shoots, this one was inspired by the clothes. We couldn’t have asked for anything more shimmering, delicate, & feminine! Thanks Peter Czar. As for Dana, she has a few words of her own:
Oh man, I felt like a bull in a China factory! Although, thank god, I wasn’t. I remember there were little tea-cups sitting out, and I thought to myself “those are probably worth more than my car”. Haha. On the serious side of the things, the shoot was fantastic. For the first picture, I was bleeding a light head to get the power down on the lights, and turned the head around the face the wall behind me. The wood in this house was a beautiful dark, almost red color. The light gave the shadows in the picture a beautiful amber tone, and created the reflection on the antique throttle. The model was gorgeous and I couldn’t ask for her to wear the gorgeous clothing creations any better. The lighting, the fabric, everything came together so perfectly. There are those incredible moments, when everything just comes together so perfectly. Those are the shots I truly live for and what makes fashion photography more then just a picture, but more like a toast to the clothing itself.

Jenascia Chakos rocks our socks off and we want you to know why! From the very first issue of DList she has been an avid fan and follower. Lucky for us she’s been a fashion stylist, producer, and editor for three years at the magazine. We have had the joy of working with this fantastic gal for a little under six months and let’s just say it’s always a blast.
Jenascia consistently tries to outdo herself, making sure every issue she releases turns more than a few heads. Her energetic personality is always appreciated on set and her eye for fashion styling helps make DList’s spreads go from good to uniquely great. You can find her on set chugging a red bull or wearing her infamous fanny pack (which we absolutely love!), full of all of her favorite tools. Let’s just say, she’s always prepared! This wonderful fashion stylist is full of tricks that makes us wish she was our secret weapon on all fashion shoots Studio 3 produces.
In this busy lady’s downtime she finds ways to create recycled fashion and enjoy her adorable little son. You may also see Jenascia modeling for a few local photographers and if you are into reality TV, you may recognize her from America’s Next Top Model Season 2. She also has a way with words and won just under $50,000 on Wheel of Fortune. It’s safe to say Jenascia is anything but ordinary.

It was a beautiful early winter day and Dana Jonas decided to take one of her favorite models out to get her fashion photography on! It was a great day to capture lens flares and the beauty of a well knit sweater. The difficulty of fashion photography lies in creating an idealistic image, that makes you not only want to seize the day, but also while wearing this season’s newest boots.
Dana Jonas does love a challenge and couldn’t believe the fall like images she was able to capture. Tricia Eastman was her model and was nothing short of exceptional for this All American beauty shoot. The inspiration behind this particular shoot was the Northwest, getting cozy and enjoying a walk around beautiful Discovery Park. Dana was able to capture images that look as if they have a natural filter. However, we must admit the best thing about this shoot is most likely the location.
If you are looking for a great place to show off your Winter fashion you should definitely check out one of our favorite locations, Discovery Park. It is situated on the Magnolia bluff overlooking the Puget Sound. It is one of the most beautiful Seattle city parks and allows for such day activities as paddle boating, kayaking, and hiking. It is basically a Northwester’s dream! The park also has a charming lighthouse that would be inviting to anyone. It’s a must to check out the beach and the old row of yellow houses. We look forward to our next shoot at this stunning Seattle park. To shoot at this park commercially, contact Seattle Parks for a permit. You can check out Dana’s images from the fashion photography shoot below and for more information on Discovery Park, check out their website!

There are many contributors, or as the industry refers to them, photo stylists, that help to create the perfect image! Everything from on set animal handlers, to product specialists, we all work together for one common creative interest. One of our most favorite type of photo stylists is the hair and make up stylist. Not only do they help our models look great, but every once & awhile they will even help the Studio 3 staff when it comes to portfolio building tests, or if a staffer needs a quick makeover. 🙂 No one does this better then Tricia Eastman. Not only does she do exceptional hair & make up, she has also been known to stand in front of the camera as a beautiful model. In short…Tricia Eastman rocks our socks off and we want everyone to know! Tricia is a highly skilled, make-up artist and photo stylist, she has worked on many projects with the studio, especially with photographer Dana Jonas. Dana loves the fact that Tricia not only knows how to make people look great, but she is also extremely friendly and a blast to work with! Her eye for detail helps with the Studio 3 mission of creating amazing, high quality imagery. She is quoted by our photographers as “being a hawk on-set”, leaving no detail unnoticed. In short, she gets along with the Studio 3 family as if she were a long lost relative that we had all been searching for. We can’t wait for our next shoot with photo stylist Tricia Eastman. She’s nothing short of a joy to work and her energy is something we can all aspire too!

With the year coming to an end and a couple more chilly months on their way, it’s the perfect time to start expanding those winter wardrobes. Here in the Pacific Northwest, we know it’s always important to stay dry and warm, but why not look good while doing so? Studio 3, Inc. Seattle got stylishly adventurous while working on some fashion photography for a Baggallini advertisement pitch!
Check out the fresh winter fashion photography, Studio 3 style, below. Our photographer, stylist, and model spent the day on location (well, many locations), riding the bus around downtown Seattle to get these awesome shots. What a fun surprise it must’ve been for their fellow riders to realize they’d found themselves in the middle of a photo shoot, out in the wild! In true Studio 3 fashion, even a normal city bus can be turned into a stunning runway on wheels!
As we love to do, we at Studio 3 have made our little list of favorites again, and this time it’s all about our go-to winter accessories, the things that help us survive that cold winter breeze and let us look and feel good doing so:
Hoodies
The must have-staple of any wardrobe, hoodies are probably one of the greatest things ever invented. They warm your arms and head like a wearable blanket and are the perfect way to start any layered outfit. Wearing a hoodie is like wearing a hug: warm, soft, and full of love.
Beanies
When a hood isn’t enough and you need to get that head warm (and you also want to look cute, of course), it’s time to whip out the trusty knit beanie. If a hoodie is a hug that stays with you throughout the day, a beanie is a wearable pat on the head: comforting, encouraging, and feels like you’re home.
A Cool Ceramic Mug
You know how drinking Coca-Cola out of a tall glass bottle just tastes better than out of a can? Well trust us, the same goes for every warm beverage and what you drink it out of. Our surefire way of feeling comfy and cozy in the office on cold days is by sipping our tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and every now and then a hot toddy out of our personal favorite mugs. If a hoodie is a portable blanket for your outsides, then a warm drink in your best mug is a blanket for your insides!
Stay warm, but also fashionable, dear friends!
