Hi I'm Jonathan.  After purchasing my first camera in 2011 photography soon became my newfound hobby and quickly turned into a significant part of my life.  It’s a part I believe helps maintain a healthy wellbeing and provides a creative release.  I am proud of the numerous successful image acknowledgements I have received but being awarded a London Salon medal tops the tree.  

I teach Photoshop in both group and one to one sessions via video conferencing, along with face-to-face camera craft sessions. I also run post processing workshops for the Royal Photographic Society, Photographic Groups and Online Clubs in the UK, USA and pretty much everywhere else too.  

I am a circuit Judge and a Permajet Envoy.  I am Affiliated with DxO Labs for Software, Wex Photo Video for all things camera, Cartridge Monkey for Ink etc as well as Jessops and one or two others.

The coast is my passion, but I am happy wandering through a city centre too. The majority of my photographic time is spent thinking about it. Time planning the outcome and visualising the print before pressing the shutter release is time well spent. Recording what the eye sees is not an option in my work. I use the camera to create, paint and even manipulate an image using a number of in camera techniques. I describe my eye as Visual Art and my product Wall Art, often abstracts or a twist on real life. I frequently work with images in groups, sets or panels. With every image produced my aim is to convey the feeling I experienced at the time of taking and offer an opportunity for the viewer to see the subject in a different way. It’s not a quick process and I am far from prolific. Every image is important, and it is my belief that an image only exists when in print, so holding the paper fresh off the printer is a key part of an enjoyable journey I call My Photography.

My approach may differ from many photographers and I am often asked how I go about capturing images, my answer is.....

"Photograph the Light not the Subject"
