Over time I’ll probably be posting my opinions of anything from albums and movies, to food and electronics.  So to make it fun and easy, i figured i needed some kind of rating system.  You know, like the magazines do it:-)

 Here’s what i came up with……”The Jake O Meter”……hey if its coming from a saint it must be true, right? 


 

  

I seriously cant wait to shoot Pj & Lilac’s wedding in august, it’s going to be insane.  Ill let Lilac come on here sometime and tell you all about it:-)  She’s  really cool……like a little ball of fire and totally fun to be around.  And PJ, equally as cool is more laid back like me……you guys definitely even each other out, which is awesome!!  We’re going back out for s more “springy” e-session when it gets warmer, which is hopefully sooner than later.  Ok, anyways…heres a few of the photos - 



 

Travis turned me on to this band about a month ago and its been in heavy rotation ever since.  Give it a chance……you wont be disappointed.

On february 2nd, when all of you New Yorkers were dealing with snow, ice and cold…… I was photographing a beautiful wedding in sunny florida at the beautiful pier sixty-six of course my super second shooter larissa cleveland accompanied me and like always, did an awesome job!!! The videographers at this wedding were top notch as well……best i’ve worked with. Check out the highlights vid from them - running roots. Nicole and Alan were a pleasure to photograph and they really made the day fun……especially this crazy dance team at the reception that the groom hired:-) I gotta tell ya, these beautiful brides are making my job way too easy these days!!! Nicole has been a huge fan of my wedding slideshows, so im going to have to really deliver with this one………stay tuned!

After almost a year of first deciding it was time for a new site……its here!!!! and i honestly couldn’t be happier with how everything has turned out. Evan from palebird has worked so hard and i just want everyone to give him a big round of applause, ha ha ha. so, if you havent had a chance to visit the site I invite you to now:-) theres tons of new work…tons of it!!! the music site is somewhat a work in progress, and the kids site should be up in about a week……exciting times! This month has been pretty crazy……ill be blogging about it soon. and a pretty cool project will be going live hopefully by tomorrow, so definitely stay tuned for that!
