With over 15 years experience in the Retail Photography Industry I worked in all aspects of the business. Starting out as a part time photographer and appointment setter for a fashion portrait studio in San Diego, California, while earning a degree in photography. I quickly worked my way up to lead photographer, assistant manager, and eventually Studio Manager for a prestigious Los Angeles Studio. I left the fashion photography industry to accept a photography and sales position in a high end portrait studio in La Jolla, California. After building more than 15 studios, and holding various executive positions including District Sales Manager, and Chief Operating Officer, I felt it was time to open Pro Photo Studios.
Pro Photo Studios was opened in 2005 by my wife Karina and myself. We had a contract to recruit, train, and manage photographers for a large Nationwide Photography Company. After a couple of years running Pro Photo Studios I felt I needed to get back to what I truly loved, the photography! Anthony Jones Photography was born! I have recreated the business to focus on my art work instead of retail portraits.
In 2007 I published my first book 'Images of the Wild Frontier'. This is a collection of images I took in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. In 2008 I published my second book 'The Fingerprints of God'. This book is a collection of my nature and wildlife images. I am currently working on two more books.
My goal is to deliver quality photo products of my images with outstanding customer service.
by David Dunham We live in a busy world in which it is entirely too easy to miss simple pleasures as we scurry to and fro trying to accomplish too much in too little time. My goal with my photography is to bring to your world, those interesting images from my world that normally one might have missed.
I do not claim to be the worlds greatest photographer and indeed at this point, I am not always sure how I accomplished some of the images I have displayed. However, I do have an eye for the unusual and the interesting. I believe that 99% of the world could be accomplished photographers but being able to push a shutter simply is not enough. I feel like composition and presentation are my strong points. I like to take photos of light, water, reflections and manipulate those images into fine art, challenging the viewer to see what I saw....and more.
I present these few images from my collection for your enjoyment. I hope they bring pleasure to your world as they have to mine
