Who is Emily Jonas：
Emily Jonas is a native Chinese, but has lived overseas for over 10 years. She is a stay-at-home-mom and professional photographer. She traveled and lived in a few different countries after she turned 16, and tried to make a career out of different industries.

She first got her hands on an SLR in early 2009, but in very short time, she started taking professional photographs that touched people’s heart. Emily started her professional photography career as a portrait photographer in Las Vegas, U.S. This year her whole family has moved to Beijing to live.
