NEWS!
My multiple awarded image ”Night Hunter” is now available to order as a poster. The great grey owl became famous after being published in The Times & The Sunday Times. It has also been awarded in several international competitions.
NEW BOoK – SVART ALBUM
Svart album is a book about light in the dark. It’s about how nature, birds and photography became my light when everything was pitch black. A personal description, where you as a viewer get to relive my intimate encounters with birds in the same way as I experienced them during a difficult disease; beautifully lit – surrounded by darkness.
ABOUT JONAS CLASSON
As a professional bird photographer, I have a unique opportunity to spend a lot of time with birds. The longer I look at an individual, the more interesting it becomes for me. In order to be able to photograph birds in a fair way, it is a prerequisite for me to not only see the bird as a bird – but as an individual.

MY INSPIRATION
MY MOTIVATION
Through my pictures, lectures, books and exhibitions, my goal is to strengthen the bonds between humans and nature. Since 2016, I have run an exhibition center for my pictures in Marieberg Galleria in Örebro – which has more than 4 million visitors per year, witch makes it to one of the largest shopping centers in Sweden.
LECTURES
In my lectures, you are offered a deep insight into my photo projects. Here I tell you step by step about how a picture idea can be realized. There will be exciting stories about encounters with birds from near and far. If you as an organization or association want to book a lecture, do not hesitate to get in touch.
EXHIBITIONS
Pictures should be seen in large format – on a wall. I work diligently to produce exhibitions based on my various projects. There have been many exhibitions over the years. Twenty-two to be exact. It’s a great way to tell a story. It’s also a way for me to reach out and meet my audience – for real. Welcome with your request!
