As ever, Jon was open and frank about his passion for photography in and of Wales. Mae Jon yn ffotograffydd masnachol a dogfennol sydd yn byw a gweithio yn ne Cymru.Mae Jon yn hoff o ffotograffiaeth y '70au a'r '80au  Mae e wedi ailddarganfod lluniau hanesyddol o ardal Caerdydd a'r cymoedd ac mae'r gwaith yma yn cael ei adlewyrch yn ei waith personol.Fe wnaethon ni siarad â Jon tra roedd ynghanol cynhyrchiad yn dogfenni ffotograffiaeth y cymoedd a ymddangosodd ddiwedd mis Mawrth 2015. Mae agwedd Jon tuag at ffotograffiaeth yng Nghymru yn ddigyfaddawd ac heb flewyn ar dafod ac fe glywch hynny yn y sgwrs.
