Two decades photographing the products and spaces Canadians build

To me, photography is really is the perfect blend of technology, chemistry and creativity, that in the hands of a true craftsmen has produced some of the most stunning works of art known to man. –Jason Hartog

Becoming a photographer is an obvious choice for Jason; it gives him the opportunity to be creative, meet great people, and play with cool gadgets.

Jason printed his first 8×10 in a high school darkroom, and the craft of building a perfect exposure never let go. What started as a pull toward cameras and creative problem solving turned into two decades behind the lens. Most of them spent inside studios, showrooms, and custom-built homes, photographing the products and spaces that define how Canadian brands go to market.

Today, Focus Point Media is a commercial product photography studio built around performance brands. Jason works with companies in workwear, safety footwear, consumer electronics, audio, and outdoor apparel clients like Paradigm, Kodiak, Terra, Arctic Cool, Dickies, and Martin Logan delivering high-quality commercial photography, architectural photography, and campaigns for well-known Canadian brands.

The studio's architectural and interior photography practice serves custom home builders, architects, and interior designers across the GTA and Southern Ontario. Jason photographs finished projects for firms like David Small Designs and Frahm Interiors his work that ends up in design publications, award submissions, and client-facing portfolios.

Jason also taught the third year of the Advanced Photography Program at Fanshawe College, where he helped develop the curriculum. He lives in Guelph, Ontario with his wife and three children and shoots in his studio and on location across southern Ontario
