When Jeremy Cohen was 15 years old, a family vacation to Yellowstone National Park unexpectedly sparked his interest in photography.

"My father brought me a tiny digital camera point-and-shoot," Jeremy shared with . "My sister was taking photos on it, and I thought they looked really cool, so I wanted to try it out. I snapped a lot of photos from nature, and it inspired me to take an film photography course at my high school as an elective when I got back home."

This early desire to record his surroundings was the foundation for his journey to becoming professional photographer. From the Quarantine Roof Culture series, to the daily Today I Photographed portrait project, Jeremy went on to make use of his camera to "uplift and amplify untold portrayals of humankind." People noticed: Jeremy has built an audience of over a million on social media, and is even able to scale a successful freelance photography career.

The ability to work from home with the help of a website

That strategy paid off: "I started to get hired for some small gigs as I worked my way up to finally work full-time as a photographer on a contract basis."

"I have multiple uses for my website ," Jeremy says. "It's my main portfolio for visitors to look through the absolute most impressive of my work, whether they're personal or client workor other miscellaneous photos."

A website can also help to build the trust of freelancers. "In my opinion," Jeremy says, "a solid website is imperative to photographers for their clients to consider them serious."
