About Jim
An award-winning photographer and director specializing in still life and products, Jim brings an artist's eye and an enthusiast's passion to his work. He strives to capture the pared-down essence of his subjects, rather than impose a false sense of beauty upon them. The viewer is invited to enjoy an often-inanimate object for its stark simplicity or quiet quality. Jim is a consummate professional with 20+ years of industry experience. His easy-going attitude and sense of humor ensure that clients not only receive top-quality work, but also enjoy the process.
Past and present clients include: Wieden + Kennedy, McKinney, Haworth, Clorox, Simpson Strong-Tie, Soy Vay, New Seasons Market, Weight Watchers, Ann Sacks, Sodexo, Sherwin Williams, Hoka One One, Reebok, Nike, Jordan, adidas, Keen, Kinfolk, Field & Stream, Outside, Money, Sunset and Audubon Society.
Jim is featured in Austin Radcliffe's book "Things Organized Neatly" published by Universe/Rizzoli in 2016, the definitive volume for this direct and timeless style of photography. Jim's Barrette Collection image is showcased on the cover.
