"James is behind every shot!"

Well, to start, my name is James Yaw, and I’m here to “Bring The Story To Life.”

I am a photographer based in Rochester, New York. I’ve certainly done some traveling here and there, but for me, there is no place like home.

As I was growing up, my family and I would help out at my grandparents farm on the weekends, so yes, I have ridden a horse before, but it’s been a while. I do a real good southern drawl, and you could say I’m a little bit country!

I later went off to college, where I studied multimedia and communication. I learned a little bit of everything, but it was in my last few semesters that I took a web design class. This prompted me to create my first website.

I cannot forget to mention, over the years, my faith has moved further up my priority list, and so you will also see this reflected heavily across my work.

“I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” – Galatians 2:20 CSB
