“Jonathan and Gaia Visual were a pleasure to work with during our story trip to Lithuania.

Jonathan’s calming presence and positivity affected everyone around.

He helped me to clarify the brief before the shoot and working with him is very easy: he knows exactly what to do to get the best results and always goes the extra mile to achieve them.

The final results are fantastic. Jonathan's eye for angles and details is unmatched!”

It was both a pleasure and a privilege to work with Jonathan and Gaia Visual in the Republic of Congo.

Jonathan approached the assignment with a calm confidence and deep professionalism.

His ability to understand the vision, navigate complex logistics and deliver exceptional results in a challenging and remote environment speaks volumes about his experience and character.

I wouldn’t hesitate to collaborate with him again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a creative partner who brings heart, skill, and insight to every frame.”

“I've worked with Jonathan and Gaia Visual for many years now, and it's always an absolute pleasure.

His images have a raw quality to them which is really unique, and capture not only what you see but the atmosphere of a time and place too.

From people to product to landscape, I've worked with him on all of the above, and would 100% recommend.”

“We use Jonathan and Gaia Visual for all our photos and videos, not just because the pictures are always superb but because he really captures people and places.

The other reason is his commitment to the energy transition which makes him a perfect fit for anyone looking for photos and video stories around net zero - whether it’s renewables projects or high-level policy discussions in Westminster.

And he’s a lovely man to work with!”

“Jonathan brings a rare blend of calm confidence, creative sensitivity, and deep professionalism to every project. He is calm, thoughtful and great to work with — nothing ever feels like too much trouble, and he has a remarkable ability to translate complex ideas into compelling visual stories.

He really takes the time to understand what you’re trying to say and turns it into something visually powerful and authentic, always with respect for people and place.

Thoughtful, adaptable and a true collaborator, he’s fun to have on a team, and makes the whole process feel easy and enjoyable.

Jonathan tailored modules and delivered trainings to improve the skills of frontline officers to capture human interest stories through photography.

Jonathan is ready to invest time in preparation, he is an excellent presenter and very talented photographer. He adapted quickly to the local context and build rapport with the diverse group of participants.
