Hello! My name is Jasmine Lee.

Freelance PhotographerFresh out of high school in the summer of 2009, I started a career as a Freelance Photographer. Specializing in model development, retouching and product photography, I happily maintained a purely referral-based business. While it’s been years since I’ve put together a permanent portfolio, a fair majority of my work can still be Google searched under the name, Jasmine Lee Viray.
Responsibilities
Organized photoshoots with various clients and maintained a guaranteed two week turn-around.
Provided various photo packages and printing options.
Provided written invoice material.
Documented model release forms for commercial shoots.

Sometime in the Fall of 2011, I was approached by a local business owner in need of a photographer, Amanda
Aragon. She and her younger sister Alex opened an online clothing store and needed a fresh, new look for their digital catalog. While I was hesitant about taking on what I knew was going to be a dramatic rise in my workload, I was undeniably enthusiastic about joining the MaterialAddict.Com Team.
What I did not know, after joining this team, was how motivated this set of sisters was to have their company succeed. Within the first year of my time with them, Material Addict had taken over a unbelievable portion of the Instagram market. With over 100k followers (one of which being Rihanna), Material Addict sales boomed. What started as a monthly, cramped photoshoot of 5-10 items in my living room soon became a weekly shoot of 40+ products in our brand new warehouse and studio.
Every month was a new adventure. Casting calls and interacting with the local modeling agencies became the norm. We welcomed two more interns, a permanent hair and stylist team, and eventually paired up with an offshore company that would piece together our original Material Addict clothing line. Material Addict was where I learned how beneficial it is to be part of an enthusiastic team.
I once read that 60% of small businesses close within their first two operating years. While Material Addict made it a fair amount of time past this two-year expectation,
we fell victim to closure right before our planned move to Los Angeles. Our buyers had over-purchased inventory and our catalog shoots slowly came to an end. It was heartbreaking for our team -- much like saying goodbye to a family.
I once lived for 8-hour shoots and the familiar sounds of a busy studio. Now I live for the feeling to be passionate about my job, just as I was then.

L exisNexis had acquired a business called Securities Mosaic, a company dedicated to the collection of federal agency data and securities related documents. By the end of 2014, a decision was made to move all operations tools from the Seattle headquarters
to the Sacramento office. The editorial team would need to be rebuilt from the ground up and the knowledge transfer from the original team would have to happen immediately. In November of 2014, I was promoted to Regional Lead of this new department and made responsible for executing this knowledge transfer as smoothly as possible.
With a great deal of effort from my all-star team and some detailed scheduling, the transfer was complete and the Sacramento office had full control of Securities Mosaic content publishing. The team managed to do all of this within six weeks.
