I live in an underground dome home in Gold Canyon Arizona with the company of 2 cats and a 200 lb Sulcata tortoise named Sheldon. I chose this location because of the way the light dances off the nearby Superstition Mountains at sunrise and sunset. Photographing the full moon rise and summer lightning against the dark night skies is a magical experience. Living here reminds me to acknowledge the beauty and grace that surrounds us everyday.
Whenever possible I make the outdoor world my studio. My nature, fine art and assignment images have been published on greeting cards, calendars, magazines, billboards, and in many electronic and print medias. I welcome commissioned work and can be hired to photograph special events and weddings. My style is a combination of journalism mixed with fine art. I offer personalized heartfelt portraits of you and your family including your pets.
Feel welcome to phone or send a message to 602.999.7957 to inquire about direct purchases, coaching or upcoming photography classes.
I share my vision with you to make a contribution to the world by inspiring you to celebrate every moment, follow your own truth and search for the beauty in everything.
Namaste, Joanne
