About Me

  • My name is Jonas. Photographer, filmmaker, and lifelong lover of wild places. Originally from Tennessee, now based in Northern Spain—living between the mountains and the sea.

  • I got my start behind the lens by accident. I spent over a decade guiding adventure travel trips—hiking, backpacking, and trail running through remote landscapes. Taking photos was just part of the job at first, but it quickly turned into a passion. I fell in love with capturing the raw beauty of wild places and telling the stories of those who move through them.

  • I feel most alive when I’m moving through landscapes. Trail running on quiet mountain ridges, scrambling up rocky peaks, or surfing tiny peeling waves with friends.

  • People say I have endless energy when I’m in the mountains or the ocean—always moving, always stoked.

  • When I’m not working, I’m…

    • Trail running in the alpine

    • Learning to surf (falling a lot, having a blast)

    • Playing guitar

    • Perfecting the art of alpine snacking (nothing beats good food with a view)

  • My work is rooted in sport, travel, and human connection. Over the last four years, I’ve shifted from just capturing my own adventures to helping brands and individuals tell their stories. I want my images to inspire people to connect—with themselves, each other, and the landscapes they move through.

  • Brands I’ve worked with: Better Trail, SRFACE, Hoka, Moondance Adventures, Single Fins Surf Travel.

  • Work solo or with a team. Whether it’s just me and my camera or a full production crew, I aim to create imagery that speaks to the magic of an adventurous life.

  • Let’s work together. If you’re looking to tell a story, capture a moment, or bring your brand to life through visuals, let’s chat.
