Jon has been capturing the essence of vacation rentals and hospitality for over eight years, earning recognition as an award-winning photographer, a regular photographer for Vrbo, and the author of two published coffee table books highlighting the most unique stays in the Midwest. His work stands apart from traditional real estate photography—Jon is a storyteller. His imagery goes beyond documenting spaces to evoke emotion, spark curiosity, and immerse viewers in the feeling of a destination.

His signature style—moody tones, intentional composition, and immersive storytelling has built him a reputation as one of the leading voices in vacation rental photography. Beyond his client work, Jon has cultivated a highly engaged social media audience drawn to his content as inspiration for travel and unique vacation experiences. He tailors much of his photography and video content specifically for these platforms, blending art and social strategy to reach travelers, dreamers, and hosts alike.

Jon’s passion for cabins and travel is deeply rooted. Growing up in Minnesota and Wisconsin, countless family trips to up-north cabins and his time in the Boy Scouts sparked his lifelong love for the outdoors, adventure, and exploring unique spaces. Those early experiences shaped not only his appreciation for the beauty of cabins and escapes but also his drive to capture that feeling through the lens.

Today, Jon continues to merge his personal passion with his professional craft—creating images and stories that elevate vacation rentals, inspire travelers, and leave a lasting impression.
