History & Background

Classic City Captures℠ was established in 2015 by Athens native and University of Georgia Grady College of Journalism & Mass Communication alumnus Jonathan Boyce Hogan. 

While in college studying telecommunications, Jonathan worked in video operations for the UGA Athletic Association's football program, participated in the George Foster Peabody Awards student judge program, served as a courier at Blasingame, Burch, Garrard & Ashley, P.C., and co-managed operations for his family's lumber company. As a student, Jon studied video production, emerging media technologies, digital media production, media programming and management, and law of mass communication. 

After graduation, Jon continued working in the family business before taking a job for 3 years at Technical Services Audio Visual, a commercial audio visual consulting and systems integration firm, where he was promoted to business development director for 2 years before moving on to serve as a project manager and site superintendent for The CloverLeaf Group, a general contracting and construction management company. Jon grew up in a local, family-owned wholesale & retail lumber business (Hogan Lumber Company) which exposed him to real estate development and construction projects at an early age. Each of these experiences provided Jon with the professional and educational opportunities that lead to the inception of Classic City Captures℠.
