Warm golden light, sweet smiles, endless country roads, and pure adorableness are words that come to mind when looking at Jake Olson's graphs of young children. The Nebraska-based photographer, who owns his own graphy business called Jake Olson Studios, takes portraits that can best be described as "aww"-worthy in their depiction of the warmth and joy that kids radiate.
Olson doesn't believe in wasting a beautiful sunset! His belief that everything in the world is beautiful as long as we take the time to look at it allows him to take normal, everyday subjects and transform them into enchanting images focused on breath-taking light and color. Born and raised in Tekamak, Nebraska, a little town just north of his current home, Olson first picked up a camera during long walks after a stint in rehab; the reaction to his images encouraged Jake to take the art form more seriously.
Olson shoots portraits for a variety of clients, but he really shines when focusing his lens on young subjects. Primarily using natural, outdoor lighting and the vast beauty of the Nebraskan countryside, Olson captures images of children happily playing on dirt roads, running through golden fields, posing with their beloved pets, and showing their love and affection for friends and siblings. The results are stunning, sweet photographs of innocence, youth, and happiness.
