Philosophy

“While there is . . . a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than

what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our

eyes permit us to see.”
~Dorothea Lange

Jonathan Anderson Photography prides itself in the ability to capture the

personailities of the moment. Each portrait session is treated uniquely. Unlike many

commercial studios, Jonathan treats each image as a potential work of art that

challenges him to discover the essential nature of each subject. Our intentions are

best expressed in the words of our customers: "I was just re-admiring Garrett's photo

from last May and I am soooo vastly appreciative of Jonathan's photography! I mean,
we look at those photos all the time, but sometimes more than others I just marvel at

how well Garrett became his real self with Jonathan. I hope we can get together to

take more photos this spring" (M.S., San Clemente).
