I hope that people are able to feel the fun and energy from the artists on stage, through my work!

Jake Kussmaul

I come from a family who is passionate about all things music. I learned to sing at an early age, and by 13, had my very own Fender Strat guitar. I tried my hardest at learning all that I could. Because I was born with cerebral palsy, I had to teach myself an adaptive playing style. I learned to write and record my own music, despite these difficulties. In college, I started making great use of my writing abilities by reviewing music, as well as copy editing. I guess it's best to stick with what you know, while welcoming a fair challenge at the same time.

My work ethic & unmatched drive for success makes me a true artist. I will stop at nothing to share my talent with the world and make sure everything I shoots becomes timeless.

When she's not in the photo pit, she's either sitting on her porch, watching the beautiful Virginia sunset or watching her puppies play in the grass.
