About

Jonathan Moyer creates photos that celebrate the human spirit. Whether it’s capturing the planets natural beauty, the unbridled joy of a child walking in the sand or the look of determination on an athlete’s face attempting to lead a team to victory, Jon’s pictures tell a story.

The son of missionaries, he spent his childhood moving around Africa helping those less fortunate. It was there that Jon developed a fascination for photographing people in the cities and remote villages, as well as the wildlife on the African plains. Upon moving to the United States, Jon studied fine art at Point Loma Nazarene University, focusing on a variety of creative skills—from photography to graphic design.

Now a seasoned photographer with more than a decade of experience, Jon still shoots from the heart, driven by a quest to capture people’s memories in a creative, yet unobtrusive way. From celebrity portraits to wedding candids and event photography, Jon works closely with each of his clients to make sure he provides them with everything they’re looking for… and more.

Jon’s photographs have been published in magazines and been the subject of several Southern California art gallery showings. And, as the official photographer for the “Wanna Play?” music advocacy campaign for NAMM, the trade association for the music products industry, Jon has photographed a variety of celebrities and musicians, including Robert Downey Jr., David Carradine, Gary Sinise, Peter Frampton, John Taylor (Duran Duran), Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley (KISS), Orianthi, Dave Navarro (Jane’s Addiction), Randy Jackson (American Idol), Ben Harper, Kenny G and Slash.
