Photographer: Morris Weintraub of The Imagewell
The first time I visited Jackson I was a 13 year-old with a Kodak Disk camera. I shot more than a hundred rolls of film while traversing America that summer. My memories of that trip remain clearer today than any of the horribly grainy and distorted images that I still keep tucked away in an old picture album. It is these memories that compelled me to leave the blur of city life behind and return to Jackson eight wonderful years ago. Since then I have worked full-time photographing weddings, family portraits and doing travel photography. Before getting to Jackson I graduated with a Masters in Photojournalism from Ohio University and worked shooting freelance documentary projects for Washingtonpost.com. I’ve won numerous state and national awards and my work has been exhibited in publications ranging from the New York Times to Photo District News magazine. Today, more than anything I enjoy playing in mountains with my dog P.J. and traveling the world in search of friendly people and fascinating new cultures.
