However, I do want to thank-you for your interest in my web site. You will find a diverse group of images concerning life in Mississippi. I am a freelance editorial and assignment photographer based in Jackson, Mississippi. I have covered a wide range of photojournalism assignments including news, sports and feature photography. Being a Mississippi photographer I have had to listen to a variety of opinions concerning this state.
Some statements are positive.
But most carry a negative tone. Please visit my Home Page and begin a trip through the state of Mississippi. I hope you can see from the images in the news, feature, sports, projects and recent work sections just how beautiful this state can be. Mississippi gets a bad mouthed from coast to coast. Please, take to time to view these images created by J.D. Schwalm, a photographer who has had his eyes opened to the beauty of Mississippi and its people.
