Ok so you want to know about me... I guess Im kinda the guy your mum warned you about... I ride a motorbike, listen to rock music and im a bit of an adrenaline junkie. Ive done bungee jumps, abseils, raced jet bikes (and speed boats) and even flown a plane. Ive also got plans to do a sky dive at some point too.But im not as bad as you might think... Most of what I do I do for charity. Mainly in memory of my ones ive lost. But like most people ive had to put up with my share of lifes kickings. Ive was knocked off my first motorbike, Ive lost a few family members, and more recently I got held up at gun point in an armed robbery at work.
..My job is working as a manager for a newsagents chain but my real interest is photography and thats really why I set this up so I have a place to show my work, so please have a look and see what you think...
..I go by the name Photos By Jake beacuse it does exactly what it says on the tin. Ive done three years professional training and now learn on the job. Thats why I work in different fields. Each one is different, and you always learn. But I guess if you made me choose, my favourite would be music photography.
..Gigs and shows are a real passion of mine, and everytime I go to a gig it becomes a challenge to get a great photo. (Partly because Im not allowed in with my big camera, so its a case of getting the best photo you can with a small digital camera. But I love it).
And if you like what you see, there are many more when you click on my profile picture and the different folders are there to make life simple. So have a look at my work or some of my music photos, or even just have a little peak at the man behind the camera.
So go on, what are you waiting for? Have a look and why not let me, and the rest of the world, know which is your favourite... So dont be scared to add me, I dont bite hehe.
