I have re-fallen in love with photography again, almost over night. One of the things that has been most helpful is abandoning all the complexity and just going back to my roots, just driving around with my camera in hand and a model. Natural light, sets built by nature and a little bit of time can yield some very satisfying results.
Models are Kianna and Sam, in that order
Shoot with Sam assisted and scouted by Stuart Hackworth
Complete Equipment Used for these shots
Just one camera and two lenses… and the sun.
- Camera: Canon 5D Mark II
- Lenses: Canon 50mm 1.2L | Canon 16-35mm 2.8L
Love these! Nice new work team!
Stunning. I love the quirkiness and moody feeling in the last one.
Stunning !
Composition –> Fabulous!
Keep up the good work Jake!
Amazing, omg was that bike just sitting there already? Or was it brought as a prop?
The bike was in an old barn, we drug it out… with permission from the owner. 🙂
Great new shots, good to see you enjoying photography again.. Sometimes simple is the best way. David Bailey once said God only gave us one light to work with, its always a good starting point and often you don’t need anymore…
Love that quote. Thanks!
LOVE the new stuff! It’s really beautiful my friend. I’m in love with simplicity too! 🙂
The lighting in that first picture…. Perfection.
oh my. absolutely gorgeous! I LOVE the one with the boots–the tones are beautiful!
I love these new shots. They definitely remind me of your earlier work which I fell in love with while starting out in photography, and which inspired me to work with models, especially in abandoned locations. I would LOVE to see more work like this from you. 🙂
Love the riding the bike shot! It exudes the emotions of a carefree childhood and the simplicity of earlier times.
When I stumbled upon your work long ago, it was these outdoor and funky location shots that drew me to your work. I know how you feel, just today I packed away some of my large soft boxes and made a vow to shoot more natural light and rediscover seeing through my camera and not being in such a controlled situation (studio). With all that said, I love your studio work as well, so good job mixin it up!

By the way, your love is just amazing, is there any chance i can be your model?

These are just gorgeous. Natural light has always been my favorite!
You realize thus significantly in terms of this topic, made me individually believe it from so many various angles. Its like men and women don’t seem to be fascinated unless it is one thing to accomplish with Lady gaga! Your personal stuffs great. All the time care for it up!
