A LITTLE ABOUT ME

I’m Jake, a creative and globetrotter loosely *key word* based out of Nashville, Tennessee.  For me, being behind a camera is simply about the opportunity to explore my curiosity and tell a story.  Whether it's shooting an indigenous tribe in Ecuador, a Lululemon yoga experience, or a local Nashville musician,  it's all about the challenge of taking the story that's in front of me and telling it in the most honest and captivating way possible.

DREAM.

It truly doesn't matter what I'm shooting, as long as I feel I get to connect with people and tell a story. That's where I thrive, get all giddy, and usually let out a few dance moves and small (or not so small) squeals.

CREATE.

I find inspiration in everything around me, but I’m a pure believer that beautiful things come from people doing things they're passionate about. 

DO.

To me, life is about that endless pursuit of passion.  So, whether you find him me his passionate element through photography or through plenty of other things- Dr. Pepper, basketball, seeing the world, or always attempting to find the best hot wings on planet earth, one thing is for sure- for me, it's about finding whatever spark of childlike joy and excitement you have in you and never letting it go. 

Period.

That's my key to life, to creativity, and to evoking a living pulse through my photos.
