Quaternate: JDT Photo


The magic of light is the blend of depth and shadow. Autumn naturally provides both with a touch of gold, only visible for a short period of time. The slight tilt in our orbiting planet is what sparks the change of each season and as the sun's position changes, so does the light. When it comes to documenting the seasons, and the changes in light, one of  the artists I love to turn to, is JDT Photo
 

Jesse is a master at capturing not just the light, but the look and feel of locations he shoots.  Jesse's visuals have you feeling the coolness in the air, hearing, the crunch of moving leaves, and feeling, the dampness of nature on the model's naked bodies.  A quick scroll over the post titles below, show Jesse's work has been a part of the changing seasons, and a part of FH, for the last six years. 


When I first contacted Jesse back in 2014, it was spring.  I was drawn to his shots of a model outside by the lake. I could instantly see the lake and surrounding woods were not just being used as a location or background.  The surroundings were as important as the model  in the expression of Jesse's vision. I followed Jesse's work throughout the summer, fall and winter and featured his work to celebrate the seasonal changes whenever the opportunity allowed.  Just as I look forward to the leaves changing each fall, the first snow each winter, and the first flowers to bloom each spring, I always look forward to seeing the magic Jesse captures with each change of season.
