LETS WORK TOGETHER
Hey There, I’m Jon. Welcome!
My Dad once told me that there are two ways of doing anything: mechanically, or artistically. First you have the mechanical way, where you understand the mechanics of a craft; like what buttons you have to push in order to take a picture with your camera. Then you have the artistic way, where you move beyond the mechanics, and enter the realm of creativity. He said that the difference between something being done “clunkily” and being done with “finesse", is in that artistry. I really took that to heart, and It’s what I think about every time I pick up my camera. It’s at the core of how I go about my craft, and my life in general. There’s no “just going through the motions'' or “cookie cutter” mentality with me.. There’s intention behind every photo that I make. After being a full-time photographer since 2017, I’ve really honed in on the details that make the kind of impactful images I strive to create, and it remains my honor to turn your finest moments into timeless, handcrafted art.

I take full responsibility for creating the highest quality work and experience for my clients. You can rest assured that if a problem were to arise, I would own it and make it right.

Honesty
My word is my bond. You can trust that I will deliver on everything I tell you, and that I will never lie or purposely mislead to gain favor.
Mastery
I’m a craftsman at the end of the day; striving to master my craft. You can anticipate seeing yourself in photos that will make your eyes widen and your jaw drop.
Discipline
I act in accordance with my values & goals, not feelings or temptations. You can depend on me to show up and deliver.

Honor
I believe that our talents are God’s gift to us, and that the way we use them is our gift to God, so I aspire to use the talents I’ve been blessed with to be of service to others in order to honor Him.
Are YOU a perfect fit?

You love life and appreciate the beauty it has to offer.
You have high expectations for your wedding day, and that includes the wedding photos.
Years later when the vows, the speeches, and the dances have all faded, you want pictures so good they make you feel like you’re right back in those moments. Pictures so good they NEED to be turned into prints. And pictures so consistently good that you can’t possibly choose a favorite.
You’re seeking a one-of-a-kind unforgettable experience, and want every unique detail of that experience captured artistically.
This is YOUR, BIG, DAY, and after it’s all said and done, you want the story to be told in a cinematic style you could look at for a lifetime.
You’re looking for a photographer who’s style and vision matches your own. One that custom-tailors their approach to you.
Your story is unique, and deserves to be documented accordingly.
You would love your wedding photos to feel like a handcrafted work of art, NOT a generic Walmart photo album.
These photos are going to become a family heirloom IF they are done properly. You choose quality over quantity, and appreciate the finer details.
You want the value of your wedding photos to exceed the investment you make to get them.
A lot of photographers slap on a price tag that doesn’t match the underwhelming photos they deliver, late. Rest assured that I will work my a** off to deliver a quality experience that exceeds expectations.
You would appreciate a mindful photographer who is going to document the moments that matter, NOT distract from them.
The last thing you want is a photographer standing over your vows firing off their flash obliviously distracting you and your guests. While I value the importance of documenting the important moments I also understand that it is equally crucial to consider my approach, ensuring that it does not detract from the essence of those cherished moments.
You value when someone is easy to work with, well-organized, and attentive to details. Prompt/effective communication is important to you.
In an era where it feels increasingly frustrating to get a hold of people or companies, you can rest easy knowing that you can get a hold of me when you need to. I actually answer my phone, and I respond to texts and emails the same day.
If this resonates with you, we’ll have a great time working together.
