J Trelstad

Hello my name is Jesse and I am a photojournalist currently based out of Southwest Minnesota. Here on my Tumblr you will find my slice of life photos of my family, and possibly different assignments from my day. All photos are © Jesse Trelstad or ©Jesse Trelstad/Daily Globe. Any views expressed on this site are my own, not of my company, or clientele. I enjoy chasing light, medium format, technique, portraits, landscape, telling stories and people watching. Easiest way to find me elsewhere... my bio https://about.me/jesse.trelstad
