More about Jonathan L....
What do you love about your job?
What I love about my career is the journey it has taken me so far. I got to meet and shoot a lot of unique and interesting people/products through my passion. I consider photography as part of my identity and being trusted by other to help capture them or their business needs is rewarding for me.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I have done several different types of shoots and how I make them special is to listen to clients needs first. Understanding what the clients needs helps a lot as some shoots are pretty straight forward that needs clean skillful execution or some need a creative twist for branding. The goal is to make the client happy that they made right choice. As an artist with creative freedom or leading a conceptual idea that's were a lot preplanning to make the shoot special happens. With my editorials thats were I get to choose what conceptual ideas and creative team I work with. Being able to articulate the vision to the team and creating synergy to create unique set of photos is what makes them special to me.
