First and foremost Jonathan Chia is an amazing asset to up and coming models. This experience he has given my daughter Haylie, has given her the confidence to get comfortable with the camera,and learn what it takes to photograph for a photographer, how to pose, listen to directions, an how to communicate back to those she is working with in the studio. Jonathan is down to her level, and very professional knowing she is new to the modeling industry, and making sure she is comfortable being photographed. Haylie has been able to open up to Jonathan and does not feel different because she's a kid. He's AWESOME with her age level being 8years old. We met Jonathan through "The Model Experience" and after telling my daughter it was ok she was missing her front teeth that he would put them in the photo for her ,she told me he was the coolest person ever . After seeing the first set of photos Jonathan did for Haylie, we were locked in. We loved them and saw how he worked with her and was able to bring things out in her during the photo shoot. He was such an encouragement to her and was always patient . We have continued to work with Jonathan and he has done all of her photo shoots and again will be doing another shoot this month in May. He is in charge of building her new portfolio and working with Ashley on the Web site we are putting together for her modeling . I can't say enough about how happy we are and we are always excited to work with him again. Jonathan works with Haylie and teaches her , and this allows Haylie to learn the modeling industry and how photos shoots are done and what is expected of her as a model. This gives her the confidence needed to continue in this business. My daughter loves Jonathon We are extremely pleased with the professionalism as well as how personable he is . This is an opportunity that any new model can benefit from and build on . Their is no words for the amount of thanks I would like to give him except to allow him to continue to work with my daughter, and help promote her modeling goals. Jonathan has been a valuable asset and would be for anyone who works with him. Their is no hidden agenda it's all put on the table and what he say is what you will receive. We have all the photos and videos promised and they are very professional. The photo shoots with Johnathon Chia are amazing. He has a way of showing their beauty and their spirit. I say GREAT JOB TO JONATHAN CHIA !! You have truly made a difference and please continue to do your amazing work. We can't wait to work with you again on the runway and in private photo shoots. You are absolutely the best at what you do !!! Risana and Haylie Nowell read more
