In their words

“The key to telling a story with images is not just an eye for a shot. It is an understanding of light, a knowledge of the subject and the ability to see the detail without losing sight of the subject. Through all our time working with Jody, he not only showed all of these skills, he also demonstrated a desire to collaborate, a wish to be flexible and gave honest feedback in everything.”

Alexander Beasley Country Manager, Patagonia UK, Ireland & Nordics
