Thank you for taking the time to visit my site and see my work! If you have a vision, an idea, a need to share with me, let me hear it!
You may have noticed that I don’t have a pricing or packages listing for photoshoots. This is because:
1) I don’t believe in flat or hourly rates. Every photoshoot, every video project, story, and human is unique. The amount of time necessary to put our minds together, getting the vision clear, planning and shooting, editing and crafting, start to finish, is different each time. For this reason, I rather hear what it is that you are envisioning, perhaps custom tailor a session or two for you, before we talk monetarily exchange. That said, typically, if you’re in the U.S., portrait sessions are $300 USD and up, and weddings start at $2500 USD.*
*but there are exceptions, which brings us to reason #2:
My-part time assistant ;)
2) Not everyone has the same budget. I cater to friends, to folks of various economic standings, and to people who live in regions of the world where $80-120 USD/hour is absolutely outrageous and impossible for them to pay. It’s rare that I turn down a good opportunity that would be beneficial to both sides because of the lack of budget. This is what my Patreon has helped tremendously with. I also dig work-trades, so if you have a skill or offering I may need or enjoy, let’s put it on the table too.
All that said, fill the form above for bookings, custom prints, collaborations, licensing, or any other inquiries.
NOTE: Depending on my location and access to the internet, I may not be able to respond swiftly.
“Jonathan has photographed my family twice and each time was a wonderful experience! He is fantastic with kids, he gets their attention, and of course he works his magic and gets the most beautiful photos. Jonathan is great to work with. I don’t know how he does it but he always has amazing photos. He is able to capture scenery and light at just the right times. I am never disappointed with Subtledream Photography, and will definitely work with Jonathan again and again.”
“Everyone thinks their wedding is the best wedding ever but thanks to the stellar skills of Jonathan Lee, we have proof that ours was in fact historic. This camerasutra made us shutter with his tree climbing, dance floor shuffling, and child entertaining to capture every moment of our wooded wedding. Never negative and always keeping focus, Jonathan was there in a flash to encapsulate our day from angles that other photographers wouldn’t be daring or skilled enough to master, all the while, offering smiles and laughter and wooing our family and friends— he really clicked with them. Looking back at our wedding photos and getting to see our special day through Jonathan’s lens is my new obsession.
If you are looking for some exposure to an incredible artist (who appreciates a good photo pun) then you really oughta give Jonathan a shot. He can offer just the white balance between a friendly experience and professional stunning photos for your special moment!”
