My name is Jeff Ligonde, and I inspire others to imagine new possibilities through visual means.

...let me explain

We focus on providing artwork that can be infusexd into any space, and transform it into something extraordinary. From canvas wall prints for your home or office, to social media campaigns and projects – we strive to provide one of a kind products and experiences. With that said…I’m extremely excited to introduce you to a special project I’ve been working on – “All of the Lights”

The IDEA

All of the Lights is a photo experience that encapsulates the art of still photography with the motion, the speed, and most importantly – the illuminating ambience of a dynamic city atmosphere. There are times you may not notice it, but we are instinctively attracted to sources of light. Each photograph in this collection represents the feeling a person receives when light is embraced; even the smallest flicker of light can provide a feeling of warmth, optimism, and hope.

Can you describe the feeling of looking up at an enormous Ferris Wheel, during a calm evening carnival? Have you ever experienced a sunset while being surrounded by some of the tallest skyscrapers in the world? Have you ever noticed the luminous reflection of a mile-long suspension bridge against a calm river? Choose to locate light...magnify it...let its energy fill you - in spite of any darkness that may surround it.

The Goal

My goal is to create a photo book that captures beautiful scenes containing various light sources from my personal perspective. In order to do that, I'll need your help! I'm looking to raise a total of $8,000 to produce, publish, and distribute All of the Lights. Each contributor to the production of a photo book will receive a signed premium hardcover book. These limited edition copies are 12" x 7.5" in size and has a smooth glossy finish throughout. In other words...this piece is perfect coffee table book!

In addition to All of the Lights, you also have the option of purchasing one of our canvas print selections from the Ether Media portfolio. Creating the best quality home environment is something I'd like to provide each and every one of my supporters. Canvas sizes are: Large (24" x 16") or XLarge (36" x 24"). Museum quality canvas that are laminated ad stretched by hand. You can choose from any one of the featured photos in "All of The Lights" or we can work together to create something that is truly special to YOU! Whether you choose one of my pieces or a commissioned piece, these canvas prints will be perfect for any living area, office, studio, or bedroom. A one of a kind item that last for generations. Don't miss the chance to own something special!

The Inspiration

The inspiration for this book comes from a place of wanting to connect more. Before this spring (2020), I believe I took the feeling of being outdoors for granted. As human beings, we're meant to be outside - we're meant to interact with our environment - and most importantly, we're meant to interact with each other. Each image in the All of the Lights photo book represents an authentic scene. I share my authenticity of that scene through this camera lens experience.

A shared experience is also meant to discussed. I want the images in this book to strike  conversion between family, friends, and associates. Where is this place? What time of day is it? How was this shot taken? In a time where social distancing has, and will probably become the norm, this book is something that can bring us together!

The EXPERIENCE

This book represents the human experience. It represents the feeling a person has when he or she steps out the door each and every day. This book represents the passion, connection, and authenticity I bring through this lens. If you can appreciate that perspective, please contribute to this campaign in any way you can.

Let's get the word out and make some noise about this photo book! Sharing is caring, so follow myself and Ether Media and let me know if any of my stuff is dope!

Respect.
