Jacob comes to us from SACS. I photographed his brother a few years ago, as well as created a family portrait for them when he was very young. It’s hard to believe I get the privilege of capturing Jacob once when he was little, and now that he’s about to venture out in the real world. Time waits for no one. Anyway, Jacob wants to attend Tarleton State in the Fall, and then on to Army Ranger school. He wants to have a military career protecting the freedoms this country has been blessed with. Jacob is reserved, more of a serious-minded person. He’s honest, mature for his age, and seems to have a sense for justice, probably where his patriotism comes from. As we talked during the pre-consultation, I saw a lot of myself in him. Jacob loves to hunt, and he also runs cross-country for his school. I’m sure whatever the future holds for him, he will succeed because he seems to know how to stay focused. He told me one of the greatest things his dad taught him was the value of hard work. Just one more reason I know he will make this world a better place, better than he found it.
His favorites:

Plans for next year: Attend Tarelton State University
If He could have one wish: to re-live my childhood
If he could do one thing to impact the world: put an end to corruption
Jacob, you have a good head on your shoulders. Your vision for your future seems very clear. Stay true to yourself, honor what you know to be right, and hold on tight to the faith you’ve been blessed with. Your decision to serve in the military is very honorable. I know you will serve and protect well. Click here to see a short video from the session.
