I am Louie Jones, Jr., a seasoned photographer, with over 30 years of experience, based in Palatine, IL, a suburb of Chicago. My unique artistic perspective has been shaped by a life of constant movement, first as an Army dependent and later as an Army Officer. From religion to politics to music, my diverse subjects reflect a deeply personal connection to my craft. My art is a mirror of my life. To know me, acquaint yourself with my creations.

For me, a timeless image is more than just colors; it's a fusion of vision and boundless creativity. Capturing the spirit of a moment is my priority, ensuring each photo is an authentic work of art. When it comes to art, I firmly believe that there are no rules, therefore, I enjoy pushing boundaries and exploring new artistic realms.

​Light has its own language. Once you learn to harness and shape it, you'll be amazed with what it has to say. Through my commitment to capturing emotion, I invite viewers on a visual journey, transcending the boundaries of mere sight.
