He purchased his first camera in 1964 when he was 13. His thought was to photograph life extensively in order to freeze time. He was also an avid reader. As he grew into his teens, he discovered that he had two things that piqued his interest, reading about worldwide travel and music. He honed his photography skills while embarking on a career as a rock and roll performing artist. He captured the events as he toured the country with name acts. His love of photography became more aesthetic when he became a father in the '80s. He embraced a new system of image creating that captured a more intimate portrait very detail-oriented. His work was beginning to be noticed by many people in the community. He became an event photographer for schools, the Housatonic Counsel in CT, for weddings, portraits, and the like. <br>In 2005 he began his travels around the world as a photographer. His first trip was to Acapulco Mexico. He is meticulous in his approach to his art form. He would learn the lay of the land, the people's interests, their cultural norms, and etiquette. Joseph began to love the people he met. He would find that the stresses of everyday life would disappear as he engaged in his photoshoots and captured the spirit of those he met along the way. To date, he has visited 26 countries and has taken over 90,000 photos. He has had a gallery on National Geographic. His work can be seen in travel magazines, private companies, and businesses. He was an instructor and has held photography classes. He has been peer awarded over 9,000 times and is considered a top 10 popular photographer in View Bug and has held that position since his enrollment as a member in 2016. He won the summer of 2020 People's Choice award, the 2020 Top Shot, and the Elite award.
