Jonathan Barran Photography Ltd, Rotorua

JONATHAN BARRAN
I have worked as a professional photographer for over 40 years. I came to this country as a teenager and trained at the School of Design in Wellington. I started my photographic career in the darkroom of a leading advertising agency in Wellington and eventually became their photographer and worked on a number of major New Zealand accounts. I then went into partnership with another Wellington photographer for two years before joining the scientific staff at the Forest Research Institute in Rotorua. During the 28 years I was with the company I photographed a very wide range of scientific, forestry and commercial subjects. I was also reponsible for the technical production of a number of documentary films on science and forestry. Twelve years ago I started my own company, Jonathan Barran Photography, which is based in Rotorua and where I work for a broad range of clients throughout New Zealand. I am available for photographic assignments throughout New Zealand.
