Jeremy is excited to branch out across DFW and see more beekeepers in their element and would like the opportunity to see you dig into your hive(s).  You don't need bees in walls, or fields of apiaries.. Jeremy wants to get up close and personal with -you- and your bees.  He LOVES taking photos of bees on comb (so Top Bar Beekeepers- hit him up)! He thoroughly enjoys images of honey, bees and well, just the whole kit and kaboodle.

Jeremy learned of TVBA when he contacted TVBA President Kirby Carmichael about getting bees for his wife.  After a successful installation of two hives at their home, he was hooked and wanted to capture images honeycomb, bees and beekeepers on film.

In addition to visiting a few of Kirby's apiaries and snapping shots while he and his crew worked bees, Jeremy has also been taking pictures and learning the world of beekeeping from a variety of angles.  For two seasons he has followed the professional bee removal world and meets with Kirby and Ryan Giesecke (TVBA past-President) as they removed bees from structures across DFW.   

This past Spring, Jeremy went to Christi Baughman's (BeeGirl.biz) commercial beekeeping operation in East Texas with Kirby and put that amazing feat of beekeeping on film, making more than 750 -completed- images in two days while the crew made a portion of the 1,500 splits that was their goal.  Who knows how many actual shots he took to get those completed gems.

If you think you'd like to have Jeremy come by, suit up and capture your time with bees, contact him via the form below.

Biography: Jeremy T. Locke

For the past 25 years, photojournalist and now retired (2013) military photographer Jeremy Lock directed his lens towards the elements of the world that many of us will never have the opportunity or even the desire to see first hand. His images are beautiful, heartbreaking, provocative and devastating – sometimes all in the same frame.

"My photographic journey is rooted in my ability to capture the essence and reality of humanity at its finest and at its worst," says Lock. "I've captured everything from the hunt for Osama bin Laden, to the playful nature of our young military who are defending our freedom, and the plight of humans in search of food after the Haiti earthquake disaster."

He is specially trained to shoot from the air and under the sea. He is the sole military photographer to be recognized seven times as the best in the business (Military Photographer of the Year, 2002, '05, '06, '08, '10, '11, ‘12).

Lock is not only an accomplished military veteran receiving the Bronze Star Medal for distinguished service in Iraq, his experience as a seasoned photojournalist have led to his work being published in magazines, newspapers and books including National Geographic, Time, New York Times, The Washington Post among others. His work has also earned multiple awards from prestigious organizations including World Press Photo, National Press Photographers Association and Oasis.

“Not only do I get to live my life, but I’ve been able to live the lives of those I photograph, even if it was just for a moment,” notes Lock. “I constantly want to share my experiences to remind myself and others that what I am doing is very important and the world needs to see it. I like to think the experiences haven’t changed me, but I know they have, and I’m thankful for that change. There is more to the world than what is outside your front door.”
