Welcome! I'm Jon Norris — and if you’re here because you want to make landscape photos you actually feel proud of… you’re in the right place.

For me, landscape photography isn’t just about “getting the shot.” It’s about learning to see, slowing down, and building the skills (and confidence) to consistently create images that look like you made them — not your camera.

Whether you’re a beginner who wants clarity, or an experienced shooter who feels stuck, I’m here to help you move forward with calm, practical guidance — and a sprinkle of humor.

Choose your path below:


Online Photography Mentoring

Personal coaching to improve composition, confidence, and creative direction.

My online mentoring sessions are not one-size-fits-all. We’ll focus on what *you* need most — whether that’s composition, light, storytelling, camera technique, or building a consistent style in both shooting and editing.

A mentoring session can include things like:

  • A review of your images (what’s working, what’s holding them back, and what to do next)

  • Composition coaching you can apply immediately in the field

  • A simple approach to planning and shooting with intention (without overthinking it)

  • Editing guidance that matches the look you’re trying to achieve

  • A realistic path forward so you stop feeling stuck

If you want supportive, practical feedback and a clear next step — this is it.

Online Lightroom Training

Learn to edit with intention — and build a workflow you can repeat.

Lightroom can be a dream… or a black hole. If your edits feel inconsistent, messy, or you’re not sure why your images don’t match what you saw out there — my Lightroom training is designed to fix that.

In my online Lightroom training, you’ll learn how to:

  • Enhance RAW files without over-editing

  • Create a smoother, faster workflow (and stop fighting your catalog)

  • Improve color, contrast, and tonal control in a natural way

  • Build a consistent look you can repeat across a whole set of images

  • Organize and back up your photo library with less stress

This isn’t about trendy presets. It’s about understanding what you’re doing — so you can edit with confidence.


Fine Art Prints

Museum-quality prints to bring calm, nature, and wonder into your home.

If you’d like to live with these landscapes beyond the screen, you can shop my fine art prints — designed to look beautiful on a wall, not just on Instagram.

You can choose from a range of sizes and finishes, including:

  • Giclée

  • Metal

  • Acrylic

Each print includes a signed certificate of authenticity, so you know you’re receiving a genuine piece of my work.

About me

I’ve been passionate about photography since I first picked up a camera at the age of 14. Over the years, I’ve honed my craft by balancing the technical and the artistic — probably helped along by my background as a former aerospace engineer.

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m usually hiking, editing, or supporting organizations that protect the wild places we love to photograph. I genuinely believe photographers have a responsibility to tread lightly and help preserve what we’re inspired by.

Bottom line? I’m here to help you improve your photography — and actually enjoy the process while you do it.
