Embarking on a photographic adventure, Jason Lee and model Naddy stumbled upon an unexpected treasure trove of abandoned International Metro Milk Trucks while en route to their original shoot location. Captivated by the serendipitous discovery, they seized the opportunity to incorporate these unique relics into their creative vision. Against the backdrop of the rusty, shot-up panel van, Naddy provided a striking contrast, adding an element of allure and mystery to the scene. Embracing the spontaneity of the moment, they ventured into daring terrain to capture images that merged the beauty of the human form with the ruggedness of the abandoned vehicles. Through Jason’s lens, the fusion of Naddy’s presence with the forgotten remnants of the past resulted in a series of captivating photographs that celebrated the spirit of adventure and the power of artistic expression.

On our way to shoot at a spectacular (and unique) location, I accidentally passed the turnoff. When coming back, I happened to look down and see some old International Metro Milk Trucks that had been abandoned and shoved off of a cliff, down in a valley below. It looked like a perfect addendum to our shoot! I love contrasting models with scrapped classic cars, so we couldn’t pass up this providential opportunity. Naddy was a wonderful contrast to the rusty, shot-up panel van. How fun it was to join up for an adventure and risk some daring terrain to make some amazing art.

Honest Song to Sing

In collaboration with the bold and beautiful Kaitlin, Jason Lee captures a transformative journey of self-liberation. Reflecting on societal pressures to conform to narrow standards of beauty, Kaitlin bravely challenges these norms, recognizing her body as a sacred vessel rather than a source of shame. Through the empowering experience of shedding inhibitions and embracing her natural self, Kaitlin finds newfound freedom and confidence, defying societal judgments to reclaim ownership of her body and mind.

Here’s what she said about this shoot:

A few words on the experience… I’ve always been told that my body should be kept “sacred.” I’ve also been told that my body should look a certain way, that I will only be liked if my body fits a specific set of standards. I’ve spent my whole life trying to fit those standards and the ironic thing is that when I did, no one would have ever known that because I hid my body. I hid my body because I was taught it wasn’t ok to be shown and that if it was, I was creating a negative image for myself and was being “provocative.”
Through this experience, I was surprisingly able to let that all go and it was one of the most empowering experiences of my life. My body is a vessel for which my soul resides. It is nothing to be shameful about. It’s ironic because when my body fit society’s standards, I hid it. But now that my body has changed into something that can’t fit into a size 00, I was able to show it off more. That right there is amazing to me. Once you take away the judgments from society about a body being a sexual object and let yourself be free in your body, you feel free in your mind.

In this unique setting, they capture stunning images that transcend the atmospheric conditions, showcasing the resilience and allure of their collaboration.

J’s beauty rises amidst the smoky skies. I love her spunky attitude!

Model and Boise Influencer Caitlin Henning praises Jason Lee’s down-to-earth nature and passion for photography in their photographic collaboration. Despite spending ample time chatting before finding a shooting location, Caitlin admires Jason’s dedication to his craft and family. Hailing from Louisiana like Caitlin adds an extra layer of connection. Caitlin appreciates Jason’s ability to transform a simple concept into stunning fine art photography, resulting in captivating images captured during their shoot in the park.

Jason was super down to earth, and easy to talk with. I feel like we chatted for about 30 minutes before we even found a place to shoot. He is a family man and has a true passion for photography. (He is also from Louisiana, and those of you who know me, know that this is a plus. Who Dat?)  His photography is beautiful fine art. We collaborated on an idea; one dress and a few spots in the park later…he captured rad images!
