Jason’s book of the Low Country in South Carolina, USA, is published.
These aerial photographs of the lowlands of coastal South Carolina and Georgia capture the essence of an area famous for its barrier islands, tidal flats, and broad river deltas that form almost continuous ribbons of waterways along the extended coasts. Beyond this watery fringe lie the colonial cities of Charleston, Beaufort, and Savannah and the outlying plantation sites that dominated the 18th- and 19th-century economic life of the coastal plains. These rich images of the Lowcountry go beyond stereotypical portraits of Spanish moss trailing from ancient live oaks and unpainted barns to offer views that take in the broad spectrum of environments that define the region. The results are truly rewarding scenes of great natural beauty, remnants of lost cultures and ways of life, diverse fields of vegetation, ancient fishing villages, and modern-day resorts and golf courses-all the elements that make up the mosaic of this beautiful and historic part of America.

Copies of Jason’s new book "Aerial" are due shortly. The book which was written by Jason talks about the history of aerial photography, and the day to day production and running of his library and shoots.
The book, in hardback, has just over 100 images taken from many different locations around the world.
Rotovision says "Not for the vertiginous, Aerial takes the reader on an awe-inspiring, global flight of fancy with Jason Hawkes, one of the worlds top aerial photographers. Aerial not only showcases the photography of this exceptionally talented high-flier, but also reveals his techniques and personal tips for success in this specialised area."

Jason has recently finished shooting a series of five ads for Nike. The
images are currently appearing in press throughout Europe.
The images were all shot in the UK, using three models from a sports agency.
We spent quite a few days flying a recee in order to get the locations
exactly right. Jason flew with the art director whilst the models were
organised on the ground by Jeremy Neech.
One of 60 images that will be used in the exhibition. Images are to be
printed at 5x4 feet on a Lambda printer.
