About Me


Jason "TANK" Johnson of J. Emile Photography
Well, I've lived in Kansas City most of my life and enjoy the majority of the things and people this city has to offer. I have been trained in chinese kung fu (wing chun fut, traditional wing chun, choy li fut, snake hand, wing chun grappling and crane chi kung for the past 5 years and enjoy it as one of my favorite forms of exercise, physical expression and can-o-whoop-ass brand.
Photography has been a long time passion of mine and I'm glad I've been given the opportunity to share it with others. I typically shoot portraits, events and social gaterings/parties but have a wide range of interest in other areas.
For my day job I'm in the I.T. field and work in a data center for a major telecom company. I have been working in data centers for the past 10 years and like being able to use what I know to help others.
I'm not a big partier but I do like to go out and meet new people and have fun. You'll usually find me at FUEL or Raoul's Velvet Lounge in Overland Park... though there are lots of other places that I enjoy. I really like dancing at local clubs and lounges or listening to live music is always a good time to me. Speaking of music, I have a wide range of tastes and interests... latin, rock, rap, r&b, hip-hop, dance, techno, jazz & blues... hey I even like a little country from time to time.I'm currentlynot in arelationship but like meeting new people.
PHOTOGRAPHY:
If you are looking for a photographer to help you update your portfolio with the look and style you're looking for drop me a line. If you have a look I'm wanting to add to my portfolio as well, then I'd be happy to consider doing a TFP/CD.
BANDS/EVENTS:
If you're wanting to get shots of your band on location drop me a line! My rates are very reasonable for local bands looking for high resolution images for advertisements, CD covers and marketing uses. Have an event where you know people will be gettin' bodied and you need a skilled photographer to make sure everyone looks their best? Hit me up and let me know what you're looking for in your promotions photos!
RATES:
People are always asking about my event rates so here is the skinny.
CLUB/BANDS:
I charge $70/night for club shoots and extra for prints (print prices shown below). This will get you 3 hours of my time for photos of your event/club and its patrons on a CD/DVD and resized for web use. A disc will full resolution with license to print, distribute and market your club (up to 2 years) is an additional $40. Prints are available via my web site in the events/bands section. If I gave you a card with a password on the back of it, ask me about the SPECIAL print pricing.

PORTRAITS:
$30 non-refundable sitting fee due at time of scheduling (can be made through paypal using the email address "[email protected]"). Additional rates are $65/hr for location shooting (sitting fee amount will be deducted from first hour's rate). Although a make-up artist is extra, I do strongly suggest selecting one (if you need assistance in finding a skilled MUA, I can recommend one for your shoot and inform you of their rates).
WEDDINGS:
Wedding packages start at $1200, with 1/4 of the package rate due at time of scheduling to secure your date (this deposit is refundable upon cancelation if made 2 weeks prior to scheduled date). See web site for further package information.
