Jonathan B.

Highly Experienced New York Photographer Specializing in Fashion, Fitness, Celebrity, and Book Covers

On a family visit to Colorado at age thirteen, Jonathan Beckerman grabbed his mother’s Canon A-1 35mm camera, hopped on his bike, and rode 13 miles into the rugged mountains in search of the mining ghost town of St. Elmo. Being young and alone in the midst of nature’s beauty was a transformational experience. “I remember aiming my mother’s camera at the scenic mountainscape and opening the shutter,” he says. “I remember feeling like this was something I could dedicate my life to.”

Jonathan eventually studied film, photography, and visual arts at Ithaca College’s Roy H. Park School of Communications. He then embarked for Los Angeles, where he worked in film and photography, shooting high fashion models, fitness, celebrities, album and book covers, as well as interior design. Beckerman’s clients appreciate his technical skill and creative vision, particularly his innate ability to capture “the soul of things.”
