Firestone Photography has been located in the historic Mission San Jose District of Fremont, CA since 1984. We specialize in portrait and commercial photography. We love working with our clients to create a lasting memory of family, or a business image that will build your brand. We can work on location, in an outdoor environment, in our studio, or we can bring the studio to you.
We discount the price of the file to $95.00 each if a 1620 or larger portrait is purchased from that image. A thick lacquer is applied that protects the portrait; this thick lacquer completely eliminates the need for glass to protect the portrait. Through a special technique, canvas replaces the backing on the portrait, giving the portrait the look and feel of an extraordinary painting.

A professional business headshot is often the first time someone sees you. It is important to make a good initial impression. There was a time, when the initial contact with someone would be in person, as you shook their hand. In this age of instant information, people often see you online before they meet you in person.
Photography studios are not hiring at all. I was 4 months out of college (BA in Photography, with Honors). I had finished up a photography apprenticeship and was married for 3 months. Before I went to college I had a job at Eastman Kodak, driving a forklift in their warehouse. I got my old job back driving that forklift.
For the sake of tradition we usually start the senior sessions with a tuxedo for the guys and a drape for the ladies, we then do the cap and gown. Once the traditional images are captured, I try to get more personalized with the portraiture. If you are into a sport or hobby I'd encourage you to bring in something that portrays that.

I found Jeff after another place couldn't book me! I needed a 'updated' digital headshot of me for my new business card.
Jeff was really easy to work with, made me laugh! The one thing about Jeff that really stood out for me was how consistent he is! I get a confirmation text the day before! When he said 'I'll get these images back to you in about a day'- he really meant it!
The final product- this is one of my husband's favorite!
Thanks Jeff- Have a safe new year ahead!

Some background:
· I came here for taking profile pics for my online profile
· I was always thinking a selfie or pics taken by a friend using a smartphone could be good enough for online profile pics but I didnt realize what magic a professional photography could create for online profile pics until I tried out this place.
About the owner, location and neighborhood :
· Jeff is such a pleasing personality to work with. He had some creative ideas on how to go about with my profile pics.
· Also Jeff cracks real jokes based on what ticks you to create that natural smile in you rather than

I was so impressed with Firestone Photography! When I needed a new profile portrait I called for an appointment and got one the next day. Jeff suggested that I bring a few wardrobe items, which I did. The results were stunning. My former-model sister told me they were the best portraits she had ever seen. Jeff took time with me for the photo shoot, and also for the digital picture selection, helping me to narrow down my choices. I wholeheartedly recommend this business.

We took our middle child to get his senior portraits taken here after being so pleased with our first sons senior photo shoot. Jeff is a true professional. He responded to our emails promptly and worked with our schedule. The portraits came out better than I had hoped!! We will definitely be bringing our third and last son back to get his senior portraits taken here when the time comes.

I needed to get some great business portraits done over the weekend for a publication I was featured in. Jeff responded to me same day and we setup an appointment the following day. The appointment was fun and engaging and I came away with several great portraits including a couple taken outdoors. If you want high quality, professional portraits quickly, Jeff can deliver.

Jeff Firestone did it again!!! This is my second time to use his photography services for my business and he did not disappoint yet again. I am amazed by his skills and eye for anything beautiful. This time he also did an outdoor shoot and the photos turned out to be more than amazing. As always, Jeff made me feel so comfortable when doing the shoots. I highly recommend this gifted man for any of your photography needs. He will beyond meet your expectations and your needs. Five stars all the way for Firestone Photography

I wanted to get some graduation portraits done and came across Firestone Photography on yelp. Jeff is a great photographer and is excellent in getting candid smiles. It did not take too long for my photos to be ready and I'm extremely happy with how my grad portraits came out! I recommend this place to anyone who needs photos done for whatever occasion.

Jeff Firestone is an amazing photographer! I requested professional photos for my business cards and social media. He took his time in understanding what I wanted to accomplish and he added his recommendations which were so creative and so artistic. He took numerous pictures to make sure we have a complete set to choose from. His attention to detail and his meticulous work gave me the best photos I have ever had. I fully recommend Jeff Firestone to anyone who is interested and keen on getting the best photos one can ever have by a professional photographer.
Thank you Jeff for a superb job!

I could not have asked for more. Jeff showed up on time, charged a fair price and did excellent work. A true professional.
He took pictures of complex machine parts for our web site, his knowledge and experience made all the difference.
Professional photos in high resolution with perfect lighting, we are very happy.
Looking forward to working with Jeff again for our Family portrait.

Jeff is the best! He's not only amazing at getting your best shot, but also a very kind person.
His work is impeccable! The reason why I like Jeff's work so much is because he is gifted with the ability to touch up your picture to the point where you look stunning without making you look like someone else.
Also, in the past, with other professional photographers, I would feel pressured to hurry up and get the shot done; however, this wasn't the case with Jeff. He took time to make suggestions on my posture, hair, outfit and all the little details that make a big difference in the shot. No wonder

SAGE Veterinary Centers has worked with Jeff Firestone for years.
He’s very flexible and helpful with scheduling, and he takes beautiful and professional photos of our staff.
He gives the subject of the photo a choice of what they like best, and then he sends our marketing team the images, which works really well.
He is also very organized – recently we needed some misplaced files and Jeff had them at the ready!
He produces quality work and goes the extra mile.
