Wow I had no idea he was a photographer until now. I'm excited to hear he's taken an interest into Galveston. I grew up visiting there from time to time and always remembered its charm. Brings back childhood memories, seeing his photos is exactly how I remembered the feeling of being there many years ago.

Jason has a very fine eye indeed. When around 8 or 9 I impulsively announced to my father that, Edward's sons, Cole & Brett Weston were photographers, so then I'm his son and I will be as well. Not long after that he gave me one of his 3-1/4 x 4-1/4 Graflex cameras, a lesson on the light meter and an admonition that I could not hand hold one of his 35mm cameras until I'd made 50 images using a tripod. I would wobble around on my bicycle in our hometown, the large and heavy wood and metal "field camera" tripod digging into my bony shoulders and making my 50 images. I was told that I had to pay attention to not just my subject but all four edges of the frame and the entire field of view. No, candy wrappers, coke bottles or other detritus unless it obviously was integral to the overall composition! MAN did I learn some stuff. Jason may say he just puts the tripod down and shoots his first sight, however there is a vast amount of experience influencing his eye and he, like myself and all serious photographers, composes to the very edge of the frame. We all may crop sometimes but always frugally, seldom large crops but once in a while. Rudolf Arnheim's "Visual Thinking" and "Film as Art", along with Eisenstein's "Film Form & Film Sense" have also influenced my seeing and slight obsession with composing right to the very edge of the frame. A shadow, long and daggerlike may be more powerful barely caressing a corner, or divergent planes or lines seeming to skew off to different places on either side of the composition and, crossing that line, seem to ask the viewer, "How far do you think I continue, to infinity or just over there?" Even, hand holding I do this amount of work in making an image, but I still prefer to work from a tripod as much as I am able, or that my subject matter allows me to.

Great actor and skateboarder. His rise as an actor was meteoric and I think his best role was Stillwater's vocalist. Ilford has a couple of cool short films of him talking about how skating greatly influenced his photography. Honestly, when I first saw his work I thought it was pretty devoid of composition and pretty "snapshoddy." But, the more I checked it out, more of it was revealed. That's the essence of great photography. I have a buddy who lives out in California that had a bunch of VHS footage he shot of Jason and Danny Way back around '91. He says he lost the footage. Might have been worth something.

Aw man. Another one I didn't know about. I loved My Name is Earl, and I loved Jason Lee in it. Comparing his images to Eggleston is interesting. I'd always thought of Eggleston as colour. Utilising the banal, but still primarily about colour. Steven Shore came to mind for me when looking at the images you presented. But of course when Shore was shooting the banal it was still pretty new, different, refreshing. Without knowing anything about Lee's photography, and giving my arrogance license, he smacks of a flaneur. And there's much to commend in that.

@TatianaHopper

I most definitely think that they’re successful background must’ve helped either to meet fellow experienced professional / popular photographers to learn with, definitely be able to afford gear and even to have people from galleries and publishers look at their work and take it “a bit more seriously”. That’s a really good question by the way. The only cases where I think it was probably less advantageous was Leonard Nimoy and possibly Gina Lollobrigida purely because they’re photography is really underground.

He was gifted an M3 by Leica, which he sold to another photographer) and an amateur with gesr worth thousands of dollars that never shot any good photos.
