exceedingly good photographer! Jonathan happened to be passing by Carlisle and very lucky to have chance to work together.

We shoot range different styles

Jonathan has exceptional knowledge for lighting.

To summarise the shoot well mannered, professional, felt comfortable threw out the shoot.

Absolutely pleasure to work with.

Definitely recommend, hope work with Jonathan in the near future! :)

Had my first shoot with Jonathan during my tour up north recently. Jonathan is an absolute gentleman with a good sense of humor and lovely personality, and last but not least, an amazingly talented photographer! Pre-comms were great, and he picked me up on time on the day, made sure that I was well fed and it's not too cold for me, when we stopped on the way back to his place to do some fashion shots by the coast. Then at his home studio, we tried lots of different outfits with various backdrops, which looked stunning at the back of the camera. I felt very welcomed, and we had a lovely, relaxed shoot. At the end, Jonathan kindly dropped me off at the station.

I am really looking forward to see the images, and I hope to work with Jonathan in the future.

Highly recommended! :)

I posed for Jonathan last night at Pathway Studios in Chester. He made me feel at ease and was pleasure to work with. We've done some great gothic fashion pictures with moody lighting, some lovely art nudes and lingerie with trainers (I love this unusual combination!). Do yourself a favour and pose for him :D I'm sure you will be glad with images he will took!

Splash Point Photo Studio

Jonathan's second time here at Splash Point. Again super friendly and easy to chat too. Nice an punctual... in fact he arrived just before we did! Always a pleasure. Recommended.

Jonathan is amazing to shoot with, a very chilled, friendly fellow, extraordinarily respectful and so many cool ideas -we shot for a day at his beautiful house in North Wales, got so many awesome images, shooting a mix of fashion, lingerie and nude, some beautiful natural light portraits, silhouettes, and so much more.

Jonathan is just so down to earth and awesome company, would highly recommend to all models and creatives, he's a top fellow!

Worked with Jonathan on a group shoot. He quickly comes up with fresh ideas and is great fun to work with. Definitely recommend if you have the chance to work with him. You will not be disappointed.

I had a great shoot with jonathan as part of my tour to chester. We where shooting for 4 hours and as usual when you are enjoying your self the time just flew by. We got on really well strait away and got some lovely images. I would recommend him and i would love to work with him again in the future. Thanks a lot for a great shoot.

Had a fab first shoot with Jonathan at my studio day at HallamMill.

For a first meet he is such a lovely character. So easy to chat to and loved looking through his work before we began our shoot.

We focused on my dance and aerial and I believe we got a good mixture of everything. We even managed to experimented for a bit. From the look of the BOC there really are some stunning shots in there. We had a really creative 2 hours and lots off giggles while chasing the sun in the windows.

A talented photographer who I look forward to working with again :)

Thank you lots xx

I had the pleasure of hosting the lovely Jonathan on my lighthouse studio day yesterday.

Jonathan is a dream to work with, a genuinely lovely man with a great eye for detail.

The 2 hours booked flew by and the images looked great, very easy to work with and a lot of fun. Highly recommended.

This was my first one on one shoot with Jonathan, we had worked together at studio events previously, I replied to his casting pretty last minute (the day before it was due to take place) but we quickly came up with a plan and the shoot itself absolutely flew by.

Jonathan has a great home studio and plenty of ideas so it's so easy to work with him.

He has a good understanding of photography and made me feel very comfortable with him.

I will definitely be working with him again where possible and certainly suggest you do the same.

Splash Point Photo Studio

Jonathan came to our studio day with Sharon Jade here at Splash Point. Despite being in South Africa at the time, his pre comms were good and upon arrival he was super pleasant and great to chat too. With plenty of experience, I could leave him to get on wit it and do his thang.

And the agenda for our latest shoot: locations up in sunny Yorkshire!!! :D Following two very lovely shooting experiences prior to this with Jonathan: it goes without saying that I was over the moon to receive a message from him expressing an interest in getting out and about in my neck of the woods and playing with some new found locations I’d stumbled upon during recce’s this side of lockdown. Jonathan got some sensational images of me in Scotland the year previous during an event, so I already knew how good an eye he had for the framing of the scene and managing the light. T’was something in the diary to most definitely feel excited and positive about: not too long after an obviously very testing time for us all!

Jonathan’s comms were on-point as usual: he’s uber quick to respond and we had the shoot and where we planned to go sorted in no time at all! He’s brilliantly organised for his shoots, which goes to add to all the evidence behind his sheer love for photography. :) He came kitted out with some epic props and outfits that he’d acquired himself, which worked a treat at the sites! His creative brain gets totally in the zone and brings awesome ideas to the forefront which guarantees a highly inspired session every time. We sure covered some wonderfully varied ground: from edgy/quirkinesses in a post-apocalyptic like environment... To our own cute take on Mary Poppins hehe! Lush (and classic) art nudes in nature style shots... And even zany fashion at a zany location to sign it off! Highly productive for sure - but that’s what happens when you work with a brilliant photographer who throws themselves right into the zone. :D

It was a funny Ole’ day weather/light wise! We were fortunate really because it only really threatened us with a bit of rain towards the end. The light literally didn’t know what it was doing though... in/out - shake it all about! Jonathan really bossed it dealing with all these changeable conditions and pulling sublime pictures out of each and every set amid the challenges of location. So he not only made that look easy, but he reacted so quick to the opportunities that each site held, and then my posing too to frame a moment of epic-ness click after click. This crazy model was just out to see all the different places she could put herself/get on top of or squeeze into! 😂 Kudo’s to Jonathan for the utterly fab team creative rapport that he is down for in every shoot. He sure knows how to do his thing and make a pretty picture, but the fact that he’s very welcoming of the model to be part of a collaborative process of working together is really nice in the flow that can be achieved.

Top bloke. 1 million percent recommend!

He bears the most kind and gentle nature, delivering buckets of respect and lovely manners to the people he shoots with. I just cannot recommend him highly enough for how comfortable I feel working with Jonathan across all sittings. We also got a healthy amount of chinwagging into the session, in addition to loadsa laughs which made for a highly harmonious and upbeat day out. :)

Working with this gentleman again would ALWAYS be a pleasure... Thank you so much for another cracking sesh!

I was super happy that Jonathon responded to my late notice casting. What a blast!

Jonathon is a sweet, kind gentleman, with a lovely family & gorgeous home. I am very happy he invited me to shoot in his home, and thanks to his lovely daughter for lending me a fabulous bag to finish a cool fashion look.

We had a great time, it is very clear Jonathon has a vast knowledge of photography, he knows what he wants to create and how to go about doing so

he is charming, a true gent and I hope to work with him again in future

excited to see the results and thanks again jon

100 percent a glowing recommendation!!

I had a great shoot with Jonathan at his home studio which is fully equipped with the best equipment and the rest of his home, which we used to shoot in, is stunning and perfect for high end lifestyle shoots! Jonathan is a true professional and made me very comfortable throughout the shoot and this meant we took some amazing images and Jonathan’s photography skills are excellent and he can direct a model well from his extensive experience. I would love to work with Jonathan again and would highly reccomend to models!

I had a wonderful shoot with Jonathan at my burlesque themed studio day at Pathways. Jonathan had a unique and fresh way of shooting and he kept the shoot fun so we sped through each of my costumes. Overall, a very fun shoot. Highly recommended :)

Helen Diaz

I worked with Jonathon for the first time at the gorgeous Sandon Studio and had such a lovely shoot! It was our first time working together, so I am always a little nervous, but from first introductions Jonathan was so lovely; very professional, kind and personable to talk to. Jonathan joined me for a quick lunch and we then had a fun few hours together exploring the stunning home.

I absolutely loved working with Jonathan, the images looks beautiful on the day and I really look forward to seeing the uploads!

Johnathon is highly recommended to all and I really hope to work together again soon. Thank You for a lovely day!

We wizzed through a few sets and he was happy to listen to any input or ideas I had . The shoot went by super fast . Jonathon was happy with what he got and called it a day , rather than just shooting for the sake of it .

Thank you for coming along . Jessica x
