I discovered Jake when he began posting self-portraits to the 365 Group, and was immediately drawn to the stark, powerful images. When I learned of his work and commitment to children and read his words chronicaling his journey, I began to be smitten. His love for this world shines through each portrait he takes. His sincerity and humor come through in his self-portraits and his words. I am proud to 'know' him, even a little bit. He gives me hope.
