Jamie Cook

 

Jamie Cook was raised amid the rich history of the Deep South in Atlanta, Georgia. He began his formal art training at Georgia State University where he majored in Fine Art and Photography. During this time he met John McWilliams, a photography professor who encouraged him to explore his inherent talents. Following college he began his career as a professional advertising photographer. Cook was regarded as one of the premier advertising photographers in the Southeast region and sought after for his conceptual studio still life and location photography. Boasting a list of high-profile clients including Cola-Cola, The Ritz Carlton Hotels and Wrangler Jeans, he has been awarded best photographer recognition by Adweek Magazine four times over the last several years.


Having formed an early enthusiasm for computers, Cook now combines his photography with digital imaging to create Fine Art Iris giclée prints. Cook has been heralded for creating a new approach to digitally enhanced photography.


Incorporating his love for travel Cook shoots various places during his journeys in hopes of capturing the spirit of his subject. Upon returning to his studio he works on his computer manipulating the image to incorporate the feelings of the places he has visited. Often working with soft antique sepia tones, his images depict the serenity of the surroundings he has encountered. Drawn by the beauty and grandeur of a single object, whether it is a bridge, a fountain, a tunnel or a river, Cook investigates all angles of the scene. Using a 35mm camera, Cook brings a unique perspective to these captivating landmarks. His peaceful compositions invite the viewer into a world where time ceases to exist and we are left to imagine for ourselves the circumstance that has brought us to this place.
