WHO WE ARE: 

Imagine Nation is the first photography company to push for its photographers in a talent management style of training. It is only currently, the only one that has proven its effectivity — pushing into successful career not only one but dozens of photographers that are already making it big in the photography scene. Founded by John Mateos Ong, Imagine Nation is now currently a corporation owned by former apprentices and now master photographers Jamie Lihan, Derrick Lim, Carlo Cecilio, Hyds Valencia, Arlene Briones, Jason de Guzman and finance officer Mot Generoso.

STYLE OF TRAINING:

While other companies give you theories and practical learning, our company believes that attitude and character plays a big role in your success and that you should start your career in photography simply because you have the passion or its a job but that it should be a calling. As such, we inculcate bible studies and character enhancement seminars in our training program. Also, Since we have the end goal of you putting up your own company / name eventually, everything about the business side of photography is also taught.

Our mission is simple: Share Jesus through whatever God has gifted us with!
