Jonathon Wilcox is a landscape and astrophotographer based out of Idaho Falls. He began photography as a teenager in Arizona, where he primarily focused on wildlife and landscape subjects before developing a strong interest in astronomy and astrophysics. Jonathon moved to Chicago in 2015 to pursue a degree in Chemical Engineering and play college baseball, then later relocated to Idaho Falls to build a career in the nuclear industry. His current photography interests include deep space, auroras, astronomical events, and battling street lamps (i.e., light pollution). He is actively working to photograph the entire Messier catalog while regularly sharing his images on social media.

Jonathon was recently published in the Idaho Public Television’s Outdoor Idaho Inaugural ‘Iconic Idaho’ calendar 2025 and was the grand prize winner for the Mountain American Credit Union’s calendar contest for 2026.
