About

Shortly after completing my business degree at Monroe College in New Rochelle, NY, I exchanged a promising career on Wall Street for a path that would lead to Ramesh Newell Photography. Four years, thousands of pictures and hundreds of clients later, I am still passionate about this journey.

Based in Kingston, Jamaica, I've worked with track and field #Sub10King Asafa Powell, and dancehall powerhouses Kiprich and ZJ Chrome. I bring such a level of professionalism to my commercial engagements that I have retained client relationships with organizations such as the Jamaica Gleaner, The Ministry of Youth and Culture and the Jamaica Insurance Brokers Associations. My clients have come to know that I will show up on the hour, or at the ninth hour if they're in a bind.

I am fluent in 'bride' and understand the jitters, the anxiety and the joys that their grooms try to hold together until that first tear drops when she walks down the aisle. And I never miss *that* shot. That superpower has enabled me to develop relationships with my Wedding clients that last long after the wedding day. My wedding photography style is clean, simple, elegant, and allows you to re-live the day just as you saw it through your eyes and stir those very same emotions you felt from getting ready until you told the last guest goodbye.

I believe in you have to be prepared to be spontaneous; so my carry-on is always ready for Barbados, the US and wherever the journey leads.

My work has been featured on magazine covers and national newspapers, and my portfolio includes editorials and fashion photography I have maintained relationships with MAC Cosmetics, On the Shout Records and the Bronx Media in New York

When I'm not rushing to meet a deadline, I enjoy building on my own creative journey and love for landscape photography.

I do whatever it takes to make happy and satisfied clients. They will tell you that I am creative, energetic and do whatever it takes to get the shot but you can meet me over coffee, I am a tea lover myself, to have your own Ramesh Newell Photography experience.

Very professional and punctual. Every picture felt so natural. We were able to be as we always are with each other and our love was portrayed through every single frame. It was truly an exceptional experience working with you.

I could not have found Ramesh Newell at a better time. I was days away from launching my organic body scrub business and desperately in need of a photographer who was experienced in product branding and photography and who could perceive and capture the feel and style of my brand. He was recommended by a mutual friend and I have absolutely no regrets from my experience.

The shoot day was crazy! I was late; he had been on time and was waiting, very relaxed and incredibly professional, allowing me to get settled and relaxed so I could talk over frame by frame all the shots I wanted. He made sure he knew exactly what I wanted as his client. I couldn’t be more excited. But we had one biiig constraint. I wanted outdoor scenes of the product and the sun was setting. Yikes. But he said not a problem! Let’s just work real fast. So much energy was put into that shoot under so much pressure (against mother nature no less) and he got all the shots I wanted. There was one final shot involving glitter that we had to try again and again until almost the entire stash of glitter was done. But he was persistent until we got the absolute perfect shot. I got my edited photos on time which I allowed me to launch my business on social media with gorgeous professional photos of my body scrubs.

I would recommend Ramesh Newell because he is a photographer that understands his clients well and is very accommodating and responsive to their needs. He’s truly flexible and able to deliver results under any condition. He understands the urgency of a deadline and there’s no understating what a gem that is. Ramesh is the photographer you want to call if you need someone who is passionate about what they do, with a skillful eye for the perfect frame and is prepared to go above and beyond to produce elegant work.

The question I get asked the most about the body scrubs’ instagram page right after “how can I get one?” is “who did the photos?” I’m always happy to say Ramesh Newell!

I had a wonderful experience working with Mr. Newell. This was my first time being photographed professionally. I was very nervous, but Ramesh kept me calm & gave me positive feedback during our session. He was very professional & I am very pleased with my photographs. You can't go wrong by choosing Ramesh Newell Photography.

Mr. Newell has a God-given gift and talent for being creative and thinking outside of the box with his photos. With his quick, alert and down-to-earth demeanour, he also possesses a warm and welcoming personality that allows you to open up and have fun on set. He is a creative genius with a raspy laugh that puts you at ease even if you feel nervous in front of a camera. Working with Mr. Newell on studio/portrait and lifestyle shoots has been a pleasure. My photos don't look staged or amateur, instead they are very natural and vibrant and I was in receipt of the finished product within a reasonable time. He will be my photographer of choice when I get married :)

I found Ramesh Newell Studio to be quite courteous in carrying out his services. I was particular impressed with his ability to engage with both me and my fiance with such ease, which made the session even easier. He is also very creative and can make much with very little. He also has a natural eye for those memorable shots.

It has been pure pleasure working with Ramesh Newell. Upon first meeting this photographer you will realize that he is not only a talented photographer, but also a pleasure to be around. I used this service for dance and personal photoshoot. Leading up to the photoshoot he was clear and efficient, asking what we wanted and guiding us through what was needed to get it. On the day of the shoot, he was unfailingly polite and would go he extra mile to get the right angles leading to the best shots.

Ramesh Newell has an incredible talent for capturing a feeling in an image. He delivered a beautiful set of images and going through the album, you never fail to get a sense of the atmosphere at each and every event. And that's exactly what I wanted - not a collection of snapshots, but images that told a story.

If you're wondering if it is worth spending the money then we say “do it!”
You won't find a better photographer, in personality and professionalism, than Ramesh Newell Studio.
