Allow me to reintroduce myself

I’ve been a photographer for the last 14 years

Before that, I spent 13 years as a personal trainer

Which means I’ve spent the last 27 years working with people

Before I had a camera in my hands, I was directing people on how to move

Now I direct people in front of a camera

Different careers, but in a lot of ways, the same work

Listening to stories, making people feel comfortable, making people feel seen

Seeing insecurities, seeing confidence, and helping build confidence

I build the lighting, I build the shot, I help create the look, but more than anything, I try to create a space where people feel comfortable being themselves

And somewhere along the way, I’ve realized that the people have always been my favorite part of the work

Which brings me to this photo

An in-between moment, a slightly ridiculous expression, me sweating in the sun and wondering if the person holding my camera knows how to use it

And I love it

Because I love the in-between moments, the ones where we’re not trying so hard to look like something

Anyway, there are some new faces here and some who’ve been following along for years

It’s been a pretty incredible journey, and I’m still figuring things out, still practicing, still learning, and still having fun

Just wanted to say hi

I’m Jesse, nice to meet you again
