JP Sullivan started taking photographs ​at an early age. His Father​,​ Jack​,​ gave him his first camera at age 12. By the age of 16​, JP's photos were being published in a local newspaper.

​While ​JP developed many of his skills independently, he also studied under some of the top names in the business, including the talented Scott Kelby, ​wildlife photographer ​Moose Peterson, internationally ​acclaimed ​photographer, Joe McNally​, and light painting photographer David Black. ​JP also studied for a time at the School​ of the​ Art Institute of Chicago.

JP tries to capture special moments and rare events with his photography, often seeking out instances in places and time that not everyone gets to experience. By then rendering these "instances" in prints of such a fine quality that they radiate with a life of their own, he tries to extend the vitality of each moment. "Life is so beautiful. At best, I try to share that perspective."

​Some of JP's prints have been described as breath-taking and so realistic people feel as though they are there in the scene (print) before them: "At first, it pulls at me with a familiarity and a longing that I don't quite understand. I feel myself stop breathing. A moment later, I fill with appreciation and contentment. I’m taking air again. I don't understand. I'm just there." Review from Kurt F. proud owner of Under The Stars and Florence.

JP's travels and photography span the U.S and the world. He takes you to a romantic river view in Florence, a chilling climb in the mountains of Utah, up close and personal encounters with African wildlife, a one of a kind ocean-view Hawaiian sunset,... And his collections keep growing.

​JP holds an FAA drone pilot ​certification, which has not only allowed him to add many amazing bird's eye vistas to his collection, but also spectacular renderings of hotels, restaurants and other businesses.

​JP Sullivan is also the proud owner of JP Sullivan Productions.​ He is married to his wife of 36 years​. He enjoys their three adult children and ​seven​ grandchildren. ​His​ base​ time ​is divided ​between Chicago IL, ​and Palm Desert CA.​
