Welcome to my crazy world
ByThanks for joining me!
I’ll start this blog with one of my personal favorites. The image is titled Rumination and was photographed underwater 07/2015. This image was from my third session underwater, and features Samantha Marley as the model. The photo session itself was 5 hours and took place at The SportsCenter Athletic Club in High Point, NC.
As I post images, I will – a little at a time, introduce more of myself to you. To get to know me, I must take you back to the beginning and slowly bring you into my world. I began my photographic journey when I was young, around age 10, when my father – who did not live with me – gave me my first SLR camera. Although this camera did not work, it was my most precious possession, and I loved holding it and pretending to take photos with it. I recall how heavy it was to me at the time, and can never forget how sticky the film door was as it was held together by duct tape. Much of my inspiration to do all I have done, and will do in the future has come from my father, whom I never got the chance to know as well as I wish I had since he passed away in 2001 from a heart attack at the age of 50. More to come…

I totally get the whole connection to photography because of your dad thing. I have always been drawn to photography because I’m so passionate about it. I told my dad about 6 years ago I was trying to think of a name for my photography business. He took a few days and I lived with my dad at this point and he was giving me gas to go back and forth to college a hour and fifteen minutes everyday. A few days later he comes to me with a picture he had drawn and he said what do you think about Jessica’s Frozen Images and I said I love it. Being that he had a heart attack at 44 years old unexpectedly I will always cherish my name and never change it.

That is completely understandable, and I relate. My father died from his heart attack at age 50. I wish he was here to see how I’ve come, and where I end up taking al of this.
