About the Photographer

  Jonathan van Beek is a New Zealander living in Melbourne, Australia. He moved to Australia in 2002 and first picked up a camera in 2004 during a trip overseas. Since then he has worked with 35mm Film and Digital cameras and also with Medium Format cameras.

  His main source of inspiration is landscape photography, having come from a country made famous by it's pristine landscape, however Jonathan is currently experimenting heavily with fashion and Portrait photography- lending his trademark photographic style to this genre by introducing the same brooding, dark imagery and muted tones that underline much of his landscape work.

  That being said, Jonathan is a keen student of all photography types and experientation is a key part of his work as a photographer. Expect to see more bodies of work, of various genres, being added to this website as he undertakes the various projects he has assigned himself.
