This business started out of the ashes of the Web 1.0 collapse in 2001. Burnt out from working at multiple start up environments, I started my photography business once I started testing the new Nikon D1x workhorse DSLR that began the real digital revolution. For nearly fifteen years I photographed hundreds of families, babies, kids and weddings around California and beyond. In 2014 I got my real estate license and have been pursuing that career full steam since. 

I do keep active with my photography, but mostly travel and occasional assignments. I have been known to take assignments with some of my old clients as well.

As of 2015, Jonathan Payne has not been taking on new business.

Jonathan continues to work on personal projects and occasional commercial and editorial assignments.
