Vermont and New England Photographer

Since 2004, I have been welcomed in my client’s lives, creating images that last and are shared for a lifetime. I take pride in my work and continue to look for ways to improve my craft. I am a member of The Vermont Professional Photographer’s Association and Professional Photographer’s of America. As a member, I take full advantage of their many educational opportunities. My images have competed nationally and internationally annually and have won many awards.


Proper lighting and posing are the two most important elements I use to create fresh, modern images that will stand the test of time. Another essential element in creating my images is for my clients to relax, have fun and allow their personalities to tell a story.


When I have no camera in my hand, you can find me teaching science at a local high school or instructing a spin class. My wife and two daughters love living in Vermont with all that it offers in outdoor recreation. We also share our home with two four legged friends, our standard poodle Sophie and our horse Ginger.

"Jon was amazing at giving my husband and I (both camera shy) direction on poses that looked natural and flattering. The photos are just amazing, there were tons of pictures taken by himself and his second shooter in his middle package, our guests loved the photo booth that we opted into, and the turnaround time for photos was only a few days after the wedding. Unheard of. I HIGHLY recommend Jon for your wedding and engagement shoot."
