ABOUT STATIA JONES
My passion was founded on the highest of the seven hills at Florida A&M University. It all started with a point and shoot camera that I took everywhere to capture my collegiate memories. You know, the one under 100 bucks, but a step up from a disposable camera? Yeah, that one! It did the job and turned into an entire hobby. I did mini sessions for my friends, joined the campus event photography team, and decided on a major. I graduated with my Bachelor’s of Science in Graphic Design with a minor in Photography.
With over 10 years of experience as a professional photographer, there’s one thing I know for a fact - my clients love the feeling of receiving those fully edited photos and falling head over heels with their gallery. It’s also incredibly satisfying for me to be able to produce professional photos that truly capture my clients, whether it’s a brand shoot, personal portrait, or an impeccable family portrait shoot.
From wedding photography to school portraits…
I have done it all! It took awhile to really find my niche. Working in various industries opened up new perspectives, possibilities, and techniques, but I was still stuck figuring out what my thing was. I knew I wanted a business that provided immense value that built a genuine network and community, but had trouble defining what that would exactly look like.
Surrounded by go-getters and like-minded individuals, I was inspired to use my God-given talent to support their dreams in the ways that it could. Through brand photography, I found that we could partner together to aid in their marketing efforts. I truly feel a part of my clients team when we strategize and plan for a successful session. Color theory, outfit decisions, and concepts fill our discussions to ensure a well, thought-out photoshoot.
IT’S MORE THAN A HOBBY, IT’S A LIFESTYLE.
For me, photography is much more than snapping a few photos. Since 2011, I have been mastering the art of capturing photographs in ways that embraces my clients. In fact, most of my clients have even stated that they’ve never felt more photogenic than ever when I was behind the camera. But, don’t take my word for it.

Reading Self-Empowering Books
When I’m not capturing my clients, I enjoy sitting down with a great self-empowering book. My favorite so far is “Atomic Habits”.
