As I sit down to edit Elora and Rajiv’s wedding, I almost give up immediately. Not because it was lacking visually. The problem was actually the opposite. There was so much to this moment, the last rays of sun after a glorious day. Slowly we made our way through the rice paddies, the air still rich and humid. Their home in the background. The scents of the earth, Elora’s dress made of Jasmine flowers and the sounds of their families and friends talking quietly just out of frame. There’s no way I can capture that. And it frustrates me. All I can give you is a glimpse, show you a fraction of what I saw, a taste of what we all felt.

Sophie - Your words perfectly compliment your photos, I get a glimpse of the atmosphere with these two elements combined. Beautiful. And a dress made of jasmine flowers – incredible.
Chanelle - You did a perfect job of it as far as I can see.
rory - maybe you are a filmmaker at heart, waiting for your medium. step out jonas the filmmaker!
Emma Sharkey - Gorgeous, just lovely

Tatjanna Miller - Dear Jonas,
While your words are eloquent and descriptive and in themselves, move the reader to some distant land, it is the images, three beautifully captured images that sweep us from our roost of imaging to the place of experiencing. In your images I can feel an amber light warming the couple, the damp smell of vegetation beneath ones feet , I can almost hear the light rustling of the flowers on her dress. Each of these images, though for you may be the frustration of conveyance, by far moves me to another place and time. And that to me, my friend, simply says, these, are amazing images. Trust your creativity, it is not failing you at all.
janice - Ahhhh Jonas, this brings tears to my eyes. It reminds me of my fathers childhood home in India and the rice fields. I knew nothing of photography the last time I visited (many years ago) and it breaks my heart that it is no longer the same that it was then. These are truly exquisite and amazing.
mike - If I wanted fractions, I’d still be in school. Post more!
Katrina - I love these photos! They share a special warm and lovely feeling of which I can’t describe.
christina - holy crap
sarah danaher - all I can do is sigh.
johnmitchell - Stop teasing!
I want more of your images.
Louise Johansson - Your pictures really move me. They are absolutely stunning!
Laura - Such a tease! Thank you. I know it is frustrating, I feel the same way…but please try to show more :)
Markus Axelsson - Ditt förmåga att formulera dig i skrift överträffas enbart av dina bilder.
govinda - I’ve never seen a bali wedding like this before. truly magical!
Jakub - Golden magic!
Steve Watkins - These are gorgeous. I would dearly love to see more but I understand how you must have felt. I love the few you have decided to share though, they have a really warm and tranquil feeling. Just looking at them I feel like I’m there myself, just perfect!
Levi Tijerina - Ridiculous. These colors kick butt
April - I feel it. Almost smell it.
Thank you.
becksy - How is it that you can make what should be such a wonderful day seem so miserable? I’ve never met you, but judging my your photography you seem to be a disconnected and somewhat emotionless person.
It’s a shame you’re so famous – it’s not warranted!
Katty - PLEASE GIVE US MORE!!!!
katty - Becksy, hope you are joking!!! either that or your english is very poor and you are visually impaired!
I am amazed Jonas is not even more famous!
Alida - I agree that Becksy person. I was at wedding where Jonas working and he is not very nice!
My friend say they love ther photo to everyone, but one day she tell me when alone that she felt she had to say that because they had spend so much munny for them and didn’t want to admit she felt like she waste all of the munny. She say her photo make her sad and she wish she had book a photo guy who had a nicer way.
Sorry, but that truth.
Jonas Peterson - Trolls, I salute you.
Kirsten - I wonder who Alida and Becksy REALLY are. Intriguing! All total bollocks, obviously.
Jen - Must save more munny to hire Jonas. These are so great, I can’t wait to see more.
Lauren - Just gorgeous Jonas! I cant wait to see some more from this one :)
Mariah - Amazing! Her dress is without question the most amazing wedding dress ever! Thank you for sharing these beautiful photos, i love the way you see things.
Anonymous - Amazing! Her dress is without question the most amazing wedding dress ever! Thank you for sharing these beautiful photos, i love the way you see things.
Tatjanna Miller - What’s worse then a troll? A grammatically horrible one! I would love to just tear that post apart. I’m not the worlds grammar genius, but I have spell check at least!
All that aside, I do not know Jonas personally, but I have seen his work and the comments his clients leave for him. If your “friend” had done her homework she’d have known what type of images she would get. just look at this blog, Jonas remains consistent in his work. I’m not even going to get started on the “she paid a lot” spiel we’ve all heard it before. If your friend didn’t like what she received she should have addressed Jonas and maybe he could have worked his magic to create images she would have liked, not have someone troll his page. :(
Perth Wedding Photographers - Wow Becksy & Alida, way to troll.
Jonas Peterson - Whoa! Hold your horses. You do understand that Alida is a troll? Right? The “friend” she talks about doesn’t exist.
Hebe B. - Simply amazing! Love each and every detail and the colors are so rich and lovely!
Amir | Ottawa Wedding Photographer - Lovely glow! Please ignore the trolls and post more photos of this wedding.
Eric Uys - that’s a pretty awesome wedding dress
vlad gherman - incredible how the dress blens in with everything else, excellent shot!
fotografo valencia bodas - I love these photos! They share a special warm and lovely feeling of which I can’t describe. These are gorgeous. I would dearly love to see more but I understand how you must have felt
