Jonathan’s love for photography began when he was 17 with a well-loved Canon SLR. A graduate of UCLA, his passion for storytelling quickly grew as assignments and documentary projects took him across the country. He photographed a vanishing way of life in the hills of Kentucky, wildfires in the mountains of California, and horse stables in New York.
Calm and collected, Jonathan lets the day unfold before him, unobtrusively documenting the day as it happens, along with time for great portraits. As an award winning member of the Wedding Photojournalist Association, Jonathan is committed to reportage-style coverage that reveals the thoughtfulness and detail that each couple puts into making their wedding a success.
A well traveled photographer, Jonathan is at home in many surroundings.
He lives with his wife, photographer Elisabeth Millay, and their two cats in California and New York. View his editorial photography at jonathanyoung.com and his food photography at youngepicurean.com.
