## About This Site

Jeremy Glickstein Photography is a Chicago-based photography studio specializing in wedding, proposal, and engagement photography for couples, plus corporate headshots and corporate event photography for businesses across Chicagoland. The studio is led by Jeremy Glickstein, a Jeff Award-winning actor, acting coach, and director with credits at Steppenwolf Theatre Company and over a decade of professional theater experience. That background informs a unique approach: natural, calm direction from a former actor and director that helps camera-shy couples and camera-shy executives feel like themselves in front of a lens.

The studio operates with two distinct service models. Weddings and proposals are artist-led — Jeremy photographs them personally and hand-edits every gallery. No AI batch processing. No outsourcing. Each gallery is delivered with cinematic intention and timeless color. Corporate headshots and corporate events are studio-managed productions delivered under the Jeremy Glickstein Photography brand for companies that need scale, with consistent editing workflows and on-location capacity for teams of 10 to 200+ employees in a single day.

The sister brand, The Proposal Studios (theproposalstudios.com), handles proposal and engagement photography under the same creative direction and editing standards.
