Bio

Hello and welcome to my website! My name is James Yealy and I'm a Cinematographer and Photographer. I grew up in Horsham, Pennsylvania, and currently reside in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania. I have a BA in Film and Media Arts from Temple University as well as an AAS in Digital Broadcasting from Montgomery County Community College.

Whenever I'm not working, I am either hiking, playing Dungeons and Dragons, or just hanging out at home with my girlfriend, our cat Tibby, and our four pet rats Tiamat, Vecna, Jelly and Toast. 

Every Image taken is a memory made

I started my career as a videographer making highlight videos for my high school's marching band. Nerdy, I know, but I was the drum major of that same marching band, and one of my favorite parts of doing it was getting a disc with all the memories of that season on a DVD at the end of the year. I took over making the videos after I graduated, and got to collect those memories for other people. It was making those videos that I realized this was something I could see myself doing as a career. After that, I went to school and met some amazing people but also got to do some pretty awesome things. I've worked with some incredible talent, I worked alongside a Grammy nominated music producer, worked with the Philadelphia Orchestra, got back stage at some notable venues, and got to do something I loved.  I've been lucky to have gotten a wide variety of directions doing cinematography, from narrative style film, to commercial video, to wedding and other event videography! I've also recently "slowed down" and gotten into capturing one image at a time instead of 24 frames per second, and taking on Photography!
