Jenny Haapala Los Angeles fashion stylists
Jenny Haapala is a Los Angeles-based fashion and wardrobe stylist who specialises in commercial, editorial and celebrity styling as well as personal shopping and styling.
Born in Finland into a family of artists, it was clear since age two that she had strong calling to express herself through clothing and fashion, always picking outfits for herself and her brothers and cousins. Jenny has always had interest and love towards pop and youth culture but also appreciation for heritage brands. You can see both of these elements in her styling.
Before moving to NYC in 2013 to pursue career in styling, she worked as a buyer for high end street wear boutique and an in-house stylist and creative consultant for a denim company.
Jenny relocated to Los Angeles in 2020, but travels all over the country for ad campaigns and music videos.

Jesse Rieser Los Angeles advertising photographers
From the age of 17, Jesse Rieser began looking through a lens, making portraits filled with telling details and compelling characters. He quickly became recognised for not only his success with commercial clients but also in the fine art world. His work inspires engagement, drawing in the viewer, causing them to wonder about the subjects and the stories they have to tell.
With over 40 exhibitions and as a former athlete, Rieser continues to find ways of injecting art into his commission photography. Here we see work from his personal practice paired with client commissions for Adobe, Amtrak, Bloomberg, ESPN, Golf Digest, The New York Times, Wired and Arizona Office of Tourism.
Clients find him as a creative additive to the collaborative process not only with his technical expertise but also in the ideation phase. He feels his greatest currency is how he communicates and sees the world. Some call it empathy. Some call it charm. His mom just says he’s a nice young man.

Joe Scarnici Los Angeles people & lifestyle photographers
"Living in Southern California offers an incredible lifestyle. As a child in Farmville, western Massachusetts, I vividly recall watching Baywatch, David Lee Roth videos on Venice Beach via MTV, and surfing movies like Point Break -- everything originating from the West Coast! This exposure fueled my desire to leave and explore everything California has to offer.
Fast-forward a few years, and I'm living my dream as a photographer, fully immersed in the Southern California lifestyle. Working with dream clients like Airwalk and Vision Streetwear, I thoroughly enjoy creating content on California's sun-drenched beaches and diverse streets!
That's when you know you've been bitten by the California love bug."
