About Jon Harris

I’m a photographer based in Gerringong, on the NSW South Coast. My bread and butter is photographing weddings and real estate, but every chance I get I'm out exploring with my camera - I love getting out into nature and photographing landscapes and wildlife. When I do eventually put the camera down, I'm usually out surfing, hiking or practicing yoga :)
