My first jumping picture was taken in 2005 with three of my best friends in New York City. That summer, we took a cross-country road trip in a 1975 Dodge Van. When we reached NYC we felt as if we had "made it," and jumping felt like the best thing to do when we got there. Since then it has been a goal of mine to see how many jumps I can collect - with different people in different locations.
"Jumpology" was a coined by the original jump photographer, Phillipe Halsman. He believed that when people jumped in front of a camera they let their masks fall, and their guards down, showing a more genuine side of their character.
