Jordan is someone who just enjoys everything there is to life and is passionate about football. Working with him for a specific shot, we photographed him holding a football on the field of Wayne Memorial High School. It was November, so there was still snow on the ground at this point! Not wanting to turn away from an opportunity, we went for it.
Jordan is a really funny dude, but also very serious and introspective. For this reason, we got both sides of his personality in his gear. When we all met up later in Belleville, Jordan’s sense of adventure and good taste in food kept me going. To start, we hit up the Bayou Grill and started down Main St. One of the reasons we were in this area is because Jordan told me he’s had so many great memories in this city.
Outside of the Bayou Grill in Belleville, we found this crazy statue. Having a good sense of humor, Jordan walked right up to it and posed for our first shot.
Back in football attire, Jordan posed using some shot ideas I provided and a few he had in his head as well. These were taken off a pier at Belleville Lake.

In all this is probably my favorite shot of his and I’m happy we stuck with it. I must have taken a few dozen before getting this one. If you knew Jordan, you’d probably say this perfectly captures his personality.
