About Jason Bowers:
“I graduated from Bowling Green State University in 1998 with a BS in Journalism and my concentration being Photojournalism. I worked as a photographer for several newspapers and transitioned into freelance work, discovering that I truly enjoyed working for myself. This education and real world experience eventually prepared me to develop my style of wedding photography in particular. In conjunction with the candid photojournalistic approach, I also try to incorporate some contemporary artistic elements as well. Over the years, because I’ve had opportunities to photograph so many interesting people, places, and events it’s hard for me to imagine doing anything else. I feel truly blessed to have the opportunity to do what I enjoy for a living.”

I am coming to the photo shoots armed with only a Kodak Easy Share 190 digital camera. I am just getting into photography as a hobby, and want to get the basics before investing in more expensives things. Hey…… we all gotta start somewhere!!! LOL

I wished I would have found out about this sooner, it sounds like a great time! I’m definitely making it to the August 9th session though – and I’ll have my Nikon Coolpix ready to go!!
