And I like to fill that little gap.

My name is Jeremy Cowart.

I'm a photographer based in Nashville, Tennessee,

and I'm also the founder of the Purpose Hotel.

I was a painter first, and then over time became a graphic designer.

Did that for a few years running around company and then I started shooting just had of curiosity wanting to explore and learn cameras and then realize that's all I wanted to do is to be a photographer and so because photography got me out to travel, got me out meeting interesting people away from the computer, so yeah I fell in love with it.

So I have a new book called I'm Possible and it's essentially just my life journey.
