“I’ve wanted to shoot with Joe for years — he seemed to beautifully capture moments and somehow embody the personalities of those he shot.

During my session, what I loved was his ability to capture my vision so much more beautifully than I was able to articulate.  I’m still over the moon with his consultative approach, thoughtfulness and of course the output.  My headshots are classic, timeless...and a bit mysterious." – Stephanie S.
