Jun de Leon: Iconic photographer
‘The hardest form of art is discipline.’
Beginnings
I was a photo journalist in Daily Express in 1972 and a working student studying Fine Arts in UST. Then I started doing covers for weekly magazine of a newspaper called Express Week and shot beautiful women on their covers. The rest is history.
Challenges
Be a beginner always. Never stop learning. The truly educated never graduates.
Where I am now
Doing underwater photography, into sports and still shooting till this very day. I do all the shoots of Coco Martin, portraits of celebrities and politicians.
Wisdom
The hardest form of art is discipline.
