I’m Jake McCormack—photographer, videographer, and storyteller based in Kansas City.
Ash & Arrow Studio is where I channel my passions: capturing real stories, creating bold visuals, and building experiences that leave a lasting impact.
Before I picked up the camera, I spent over 20 years as a Marine and later as a leadership development professional—helping people grow, lead, and find their direction. That experience shaped the way I see the world: every ember holds potential, and every arrow deserves a target.
Now, whether I’m behind the lens or leading a project, my focus is the same—crafting work that feels authentic, purposeful, and impossible to ignore.
