Eat.Sleep.Scroll.: ELEPHANT GUN

I am completely obsessed with Jason Jean. His website Citizen Couture is really worth checking out if, like me, you drool all over the Sartorialist and LookBook. Jean was a tax professional who decided to turn to freelance photography. Whilst he was working in accounting he was diagnosed with juvenile glaucoma and became partially blind which boosted an urge to explore his creative side that he says was 'suppressed at childhood'. He started photography in mid 2008 and became infatuated with style and fashion.
Citizen Couture was established just after New York fashion week in 2009 - a website that focused on "exploring and capturing fashion inspirations at major fashion cities/events while globally reaching out to other creative communities."

Look at how fucking cool he is:

A few random, interesting, and quirky facts about myself:

1) I am an American-born Taiwanese raised in New York. My last name is a phonetic translation to German that was passed over when my uncle lived abroad.

2) I grew up writing left-handed but at a young age my parents taught me to use my right instead. I currently define myself as selective ambidextrous, switching hands for certain tasks based on comfort.

3) I carried a sketchbook up until high school, feverishly drawing anything from comic book characters to simple portraits. Sometimes I would simultaneously draw with one hand and color with the other. - (come on, that is too effing cool.)

4) While I love fashion and style, I must admit that I can be a little of a geek at times; probably because of my financial background. I’m an analytical person who happens to be technological savvy with intermediate computer/web programming and accounting knowledge (how exciting, eh?).

5) I have a habit of asking friends to autograph favorite photos that I take. I find each individual signature unique which creates a sentimental and timeless value to the photos.
