My name is Jonas. I watch way too much television, drink lots of coffee, and like to draw on stuff. I live in the Pacific Northwest. I’m in love with a girl named Mary. She has freckles and loves me right back.
My wedding photography has been published in Seattle Bride Magazine, as well as featured on numerous blogs including Rock N’ Roll Bride, Green Wedding Shoes, Hi-Fi Weddings (2), and Offbeat Bride. My photos have also been published in Seattle Sound Magazine, Tom Tom Magazine, and the UK’s Daily Mail. My work has been on exhibit as art installations at the Gasteig Cultural Center in Munich, Germany, the ZooArt International Exhibition of Contemporary Art in Cuneo, Italy, and as part of the Cooper building’s video wall sponsored by flux.net in downtown Los Angeles, California. I’m also a contributor for Getty Images.
If you’re interested in my work, along with my blog you can check out some featured weddings, galleries, and pricing on my portfolio site jonas-seaman.com.
If you like what I’m doing, I’m sure we’ll work well together. I’m open for bookings anywhere in the United States. I love to travel!

Thank you so much. I appreciate it!

Thanks. Feel free to stop by anytime.
You have some really interesting photos! Glad I stumbled upon your blog!
It’s been an amazing experience to watch the liveforfame community grow. I feel completely blessed to be a part of it. Thank you so much for my Vimeo Plus membership!! Holy Crap, now I’ve got to buy a video camera. Thank You. Thank You!!
Until now I only knew you as Americanvirus, however, through your work i feel like i have a deeper understanding of who you are. I think your work is simply fantastic, and am so blessed to have you on liveforfame.com. For my selfish reasons of wanting to see more art out there I created liveforfame to find people like you. I hope you truly know how respected you are, and your passion lives through your work. please.always.stay.hellamega.
love, mp and all of hellamega
Thanks John, it was fun for me as well.
I agree with everyone above Jonas. Your creativity is awesome and it’s always cool to see your new projects. I was reading the post by Susana who asked “Why Virus?” So I thought I would put a link to your “Looking Through The Lens” interview on my post in case anyone would like to read it. It is one of my favorite interviews I have done so “Thank You” Jonas! And it gives an amazing insight into your world of photography and creativity!

I’ll email you.
Hey Jonas! I found your gorgeous Slippage shots on flickr. Can I put them on the Skylark website? Let me know! jessie@skylarkcafe.com
Sounds cool. I’ll email youi.
Hi Jonas,
I am interested in showing your video, Campfire, as part of a program to be show on a videowall in downtown L.A. Please contact me if you are interested.
Best,
Nina
To tell you the truth Susana, I didn’t put much thought into it. The name Americanvirus popped into my head one day and I just thought it sounded cool. I’m sorry that that’s probably not much help for your thesis. Anyway, I am a huge fan of William Burroughs and Laurie Anderson. Burroughs says in one of Anderson’s songs, “Language is a virus from outer space…”
I always loved that.
Hi Jonas, My name is Susana G. Romanos. I’m in the celesteprize web too but these days I’m having problems with the messages tool so I’ve decided to write throught your blog, I saw it in you video work at celeste. I address to you because I’m doing my thesis about Laurie Anderson’s work focussed on viral allegory, so everything or anything with the word “virus” calls my attention. My question is obvious, why virus? Of course you don’t have to answer, I don’t want to disturb, but I will be very grateful if you do. Greetings.
Thank you!! And thanks for my killer T-Shirt!!
I think ur photography and video are truly amazing. thank you for sharing on L4F and with the rest of the world
Well, thank YOU!
I think it is awesome to see what you have done in your life since you were in “CotC.” It was one of my all time fav movies and I loved your parts in it. So Marlowe was just a stage name? That “True Blood” picture you have of Simone on FlikR reminds me of how you looked in the movie…dark and sinister! You should write a bio for your IMDB page. Thank you for sharing your great talents!
It’s great to be found, Kelly.
Jonas…look at you as a man! In my mind you (we) are still 16. Good to find you…
Kelly
Ha Ha. That was me. I think we were trying to break into the Norman Bates house when security caught us.
Hey Jonas-
We didn’t even actually go to HS together, but I followed this from Claudia Martinez’ facebook site. gorgeous.
I was one of the girls you got in trouble with at Universal Studios..at least I think that was you…my memory is getting bad!!! i went to vnhs and was friends with some of your friends including the Forbes brothers and Aaron Hamilton. blah blah..
Anyhoo…great work!
