As I write this it is 9˚ in Des Moines, Iowa, with windchill at -15˚. There are 626 closings or delays, 47 counties that are under advisories, watches, or severe weather warnings. We’ve received more than a foot of snow, and we aren’t done yet!

But enough about the details…

Let’s dive into the snow around the Des Moines area and see what we’re dealing with here!

And a little video from our friends over at LavaRow

If you live in Des Moines and you haven’t seen Jake Boyd’s photography yet, you’re missing out. We came across Jake and his photos on Twitter, and we can’t believe what we see! Mad talent!

We especially appreciate his talent shooting Des Moines architecture. We’ve never seen anything like it.  After seeing his work, we knew he needed to be featured…so here goes…

Let’s Meet Jake:

How long have you been in business? Right now it’s just a hobby

Describe your business… I shoot anything and everything in the Des Moines area.

What makes your business unique? I take more of an artistic approach with my photos. I try to use angles/ideas that you don’t normally see. I also work with photos in Photoshop to ensure the best quality.

Who is your typical client/customer? Anyone who needs photos taken. I prefer architecture.

Where can we find you? You can follow Jake on Twitter (@jakeboyd) or visit his website at http://www.jakeboydphoto.com.
