Jason Lee fondly reflects on his collaboration with Kayla, describing her as an absolute sweetheart. Together, they embarked on a journey to explore the various facets of her personality, ranging from sweet and charming to daring and saucy. Amidst laughter and camaraderie, they delved into the depths of Kayla’s character, capturing moments that celebrated her authenticity and versatility. Through Jason’s lens, Kayla’s vibrant spirit and playful energy were immortalized, creating photographs that reflected the essence of their joyful and dynamic collaboration.

Another thing that brings me joy is creating a safe space for a model to explore her emotions — not demanding a particular pose or expression — but working in collaboration to go beneath the surface and discover more of the soul.

In the midst of nature’s elements, Autumn stood tall, facing the deep, rushing river and the swirling wind with a seasoned composure. Accompanied by a friend during their hike to the riverside shoot location, Autumn initially kept to herself. However, as she disrobed and immersed herself in the surroundings, a transformation took place. Slowly but surely, Autumn embraced the essence of the shoot, reveling in the sensation of the wind caressing her skin and the rush of water against her legs. Through Jason Lee’s lens, her journey from reservation to immersion was captured, a testament to the beauty of embracing the natural world and one’s own vulnerability.

I love the intensity Autumn shared with us, as viewers. She didn’t say much with words, but she spoke strongly and powerfully with her whole self.

In the depths of the woods, Michelle’s intensity blazed like a guiding flame. With Jason Lee’s lens as her witness, she fearlessly scaled trees, her movements a dance with the shadows. Ladybugs and pinecones became symbols of her reverence for nature, each touch a testament to her fierce connection to the earth. Across jagged concrete remnants on the cliff’s edge, she draped herself with a raw, almost primal determination, akin to a figure in a divine narrative. Each photograph captured not just her wildness, but the raw, untamed intensity that burned within her, reminiscent of a prophet forging through the wilderness. Through Lee’s photography, Michelle’s intensity was immortalized, a testament to the fierce spirit that roamed the depths of the forest.

A free spirit should not be caged in clothing.

In their second shoot, Jason Lee and Megan pick up where they left off at the abandoned farm, following an old dirt road through the forest to a cliff above a river. Here, they discover a breathtaking vista of untouched nature, encountering remnants of nature reclaiming its territory along the way: towering trees adorned with moss, wildflowers peeking through the undergrowth, and the distant call of wildlife. As they reach the cliff’s edge, they find themselves amidst a tranquil haven ripe for artistic exploration and creative expression. Inspired by the serene surroundings, they embark on a unique artistic endeavor.

Dripping bright paints over Megan’s body, Jason ignites a cascade of abstract expression. Megan, becoming the canvas, blends the paints with her hands, creating mesmerizing swirls of color and form. Together, they transcend the boundaries of traditional photography, channeling their creativity into a captivating fusion of art and nature. Through their collaborative process, they unleash a symphony of abstract expressions, each stroke capturing the essence of their shared experience amidst the beauty of the wilderness.

Megan is someone I could photograph for years… twice wasn’t nearly enough! Alas, the fleeting opportunities of time and how they pass us by.

MODEL / DEE
PHOTOGRAPHY / JASON LEE

In a playful exploration of the absurdity of modern swimwear, Jason Lee takes a bold approach with Dee, painting on a bikini rather than relying on traditional garments. Embracing the notion that bikinis essentially mimic the skin they cover, Lee challenges conventional norms by eliminating the need for fabric altogether. Through this unconventional choice, Dee’s natural beauty shines uninhibited, stripped of societal expectations and constraints. Lee’s daring creativity transforms the ordinary into an avant-garde statement, inviting viewers to reconsider the boundaries of fashion and self-expression.

Bikinis are basically painted on, so why not just ditch it? The human body needs no covering. It is wonderful and perfect without any false modesty.
