Growing up in Washington Heights New York City, Jonathan Aldebot found a love for photography and filmmaking at an early age. When he was eleven, he picked up his father’s bulky VHS video camera and began making shorts, small skits and music videos with friends and family. Shortly after, he discovered his father’s Canon AE-1 film camera. Being that he was still in elementary school and had no money, he began snapping away with the camera and let his imagination do the rest.
