Jumpography

We love working on our clients' wedding thank yous because it means we get to see some really beautiful photographs from their big day. Not long ago we finished this couple's thank you cards; we especially adored one of their images portraying them holding hands behind their backs in the shape of a heart whilst jumping. We then discovered that our client, Clemmie, is a ‘Jump Photographer’!

She started taking Jump Photos when working as a journalist in Mauritania back in 2007. Her job took her all over the world, and before she knew it she had compiled an impressive archive of friends and strangers jumping all over the place. She had an exhibition a few months ago called 'Jumpography' at The Tabernacle in Notting Hill, which was a great hit. Now she is setting up a website through which she will be selling her images; she has even started taking commissions of Jump Portraits.

“A Jump Photo is engaging and inspiring. When you jump, you leave the world beneath you for a split second. Nothing matters. Your inner child leaps out. You are at once a bit scared and a bit excited, but mostly, a bit free. Look at people's faces when they jump. They are children again. It is so fun capturing this split second transformation on camera.” - Clemmie

Head over to www.jumpography.org or find her on Instagram (#jump0graphy). How about a family jump portrait or a set of greeting cards? It's definitely something not to be missed.
