About

Hi there, I'm Jonathan. I live on both sides of the camera, getting my start as an actor before moving into directing, screenwriting, and photography. As a photographer, I specialize in physique photography, creative portraits, actor headshots, and cosplay photography. My work as a film director and actor lends a cinematic eye and a performer's understanding of what it means to be in front of a lens. For me, every image is a story being told.

What sets my work apart in physique photography? I'm a bodybuilder myself. I don't just photograph physiques; I understand them. I know what these images mean to us, I understand the nuances of posing, and I know how to use light to highlight the conditioning, symmetry, and detail that competitors work so hard to achieve.

For actors and models, I bring a director's eye to headshot sessions. I understand the casting process, the importance of range, and how a single image can open doors. My approach is collaborative and relaxed — I want you to look and feel like yourself, so we can explore and surface the facets of your unique emotional world and personal character that you want casting and film directors to see.

And then there's creative, concept, and cosplay work. On each of these shoots, I'm all in. I grew up on comic books, dark fantasy, and sci-fi. I love building worlds, crafting dramatic lighting setups, and pushing the boundaries of what a portrait can be. Some of my favorite sessions are the ones where we throw the rulebook out and just create.

When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me in the gym, on a film set, playing World of Warcraft, writing, or spending time with my wife and kids. I believe that the best creative work comes from people who embrace their passions, live authentically, and take care of the people around them.

So, if any of this resonates with you - if you want to create bold art and tell a story - reach out and let me know. Let's make something great together.
