You’re the Host, Not the Photographer

You've planned every detail, invited your guests, and created the moment. The last thing you should be doing is chasing good shots on your phone or worrying about whether anyone captured the speech.

That's where I come in.

I blend into the background, find the moments before they're gone, and deliver a gallery that tells the full story of your event — the energy, the details, and everything in between.

Organizations I’ve loved partnering with.

    The Heart of Lebanon has loved working with Jon and the quality of his work is top-notch. From the beginning, he has been great to work with. He understood our vision and has executed the vision beautifully with the photos he has taken at our events. He’s captures the event in a way that really tells a story of the community. He is also a great communicator and delivers when he says he will. We highly recommend using Jon for your photography needs.

  • Wedding party posing outdoors with bridesmaids in purple dresses and groomsmen in black suits, alongside a bride and groom in formal attire, in front of a small pavilion.

    Jon did my engagement and wedding photos. He did a wonderful job. I felt so comfortable and we had a lot of laughs while taking pictures. That really surprised me because I generally feel very anxious and awkward in pictures. Because of this we were smiling and laughing in our photos.

  • Bride and groom sitting on stone steps surrounded by lush greenery and flowers in a garden setting.

    Jon has been super cool to work with. He is patient and passionate and also provides exceptional services! The photos came out great and we are so glad to keep great memories with the photos. Kudos for his website too, which makes payment and sharing so easy.

Make the Day Last Forever

Without a dedicated photographer, the moments that made your event worth hosting can disappear before the evening ends. With me there, you walk away with a complete, beautifully documented record of the day — and the freedom to actually enjoy it while it's happening.
