About Us

My name is Jonathan Bailey.  I’m a 30 something year old professional photographer, videographer and graphic designer for a rather large southern grocery store chain.  Photography, and really anything artistic, has always been in the forefront of my life. From college to my lifelong career, art in some form is a MUST.

Actually, when I first went to college, I wanted to be an Art Teacher.  Helping students with developing their craft to express what they were feeling seemed like the perfect fit for me.  Once I started getting deep into the education classes and the politics of it all, I knew that teaching in a school system was not for me and was not the route I wanted to go anymore. After dropping the education part of my degree, I ended up with much, much more.  I discovered my true love, and passion, for photography. I graduated with a BA in Art with a concentration in Oil painting, BA in Photography and Digital Imaging and an AA in Graphic Design. If there was something artistic, I wanted to be involved.

So, that leads me to where I am now with this journey.  Teaching and helping people were always in the back of my mind.  Passing on the skills I spent hours learning in school to anyone who would care to listen.  That’s where The Photog Experience came in.  TPE is my, relatively new, up-and-coming YouTube Channel. It allows me to connect with an audience on how to improve their photography skills to help THEM tell their story.  Whether that’s their traveling story or family outing, I wanted to help.  Through teaching them tips and tricks on basic camera functions. I have also started getting into video production and I have also started to dive into “gear “reviews on products I think would benefit the viewers. The amateur to professional or what have you.
