Jay Stover | Founder
Jay Stover is a creative director, pilot, and musician guided by perspective, timing, and presence.
From early moments above cities in flight to years immersed in music and visual storytelling, he developed a sensitivity to what a moment means, not just how it looks, but how it’s remembered. That awareness shapes everything he creates.
His approach is grounded, intentional, and deeply human.
Every project begins the same way: by listening.
Listening to the people.
Listening to the purpose.
Listening for what matters most.
Because the responsibility isn’t just to capture something beautiful, it’s to honor something real.

Jay’s perspective is deeply influenced by his Christian faith, a quiet foundation that shapes how he sees, listens, and creates.
It informs how he approaches people and projects alike, with humility, gratitude, and a deep respect for the responsibility of capturing what truly matters.
He believes every opportunity is a chance to serve with excellence, to steward his gifts well, and to create work that reflects meaning beyond the moment.
This is for the ones who feel called to more.
For the dreamers building something bigger than themselves.
For those who care about how it’s done, not just how it looks when it’s finished.
Here, the mission is simple:
To serve.
To create at the highest level.
To help others step fully into their vision, and capture it in a way that lasts.
Not just a place to create,
A place to become.

Hi there! My name’s Noah. I’ve been with JayDreaming Studios since last year and I’ve loved every minute of it. Being a Media Arts major, having the opportunity to stretch my limits, tinker with what can be done, and learning something new everyday is where I’m at my happiest! Editing a new project is like putting together a puzzle. A puzzle that tells a story of perseverance, and finding new horizons! I’ve worked on several independent projects over the years, and one day I hope to work on the ultimate puzzle: a feature film!
