For those of you not familiar with the Jump for Joy! Photo Project yet...
My vision is to create an art photo book of 1,000 photos of people jumping for joy around the world and a photography exhibit that showcases a select few of the best JUMPING images. The compilation of joy expressed by a variety of people from around the world is intended to create a unified community of joy, to express the importance of joy in the lives of all people and to remind us that humanity can come together as one through the expression of joy.
I am excited to do more jumping shoots in Los Angeles, please email me at: info@jumpforjoyphotoproject.com to set up a jumping shoot with me, and/or if you are interested in shoots in other cities... or have feedback and suggestions about the project I would love to hear from you.
