I did not know photographer Anthony Jones (Tony Jones Photo) but he was always very generous and supportive of my using his work on FH. The last time I heard from Tony we were putting together a post of his work with male & female couples. I found his couple work incredibly beautiful and Tony was helping me with the text. The last email I got from him was from this past May.
'Tye, thanks for everything and I'll be in touch. But probably not until the middle of next month. I'm moving in the next few weeks and will be insane until the dust settles.'
I never heard back from Tony and a follow up email in July was never replied to. I assumed he was busy. I was saddened to learn yesterday from Brandon Ruckdashel that Tony had passed away. Brandon and he were good friends and Brandon said Tony helped him to reach deeper inside himself for the work he created. Tony's work always inspired and should live beyond his death. His site is currently still up so you can still check out some of his work at Tony Jones Photo HERE:
R.I.P Mr. Jones.
