Jared Byer Photography

I started with photography over a decade ago, in that time I have worked almost exclusively in a photo journalistic style.  The last few years I have been exploring photographic aesthetics. I am now setting up sessions with models to explore what I like to call extreme individuality.

I greatly enjoy photographing people I know well.  You don't always get a chance to know models very well.  So I thought if I photographed models with tattoos and they told me about the tattoo I would know about that part of them and hopefully that would add interest and intensity to the portraits.  This isn't about photographing tattoos but rather people with tattoos and hopefully I will be able to tell a story in the process.

I am also looking for a few brave models to do some experimental work with crying.  If you think you can cry in a photo shoot and would feel comfortable being photographed crying please leave me a message. 

Due to my day job I don't have much available time from October to March. I am available in the Chattanooga Tennessee area during the summer and mostly on weekends. I am available in Franklin almost anytime except for the winter when I am available some on the weekend.
