Currently based in Grand Rapids, Michigan but often traveling both domestically and internationally.
HEY, I'M JOSH ...
…a photographer and videographer from West Michigan (and that's my amazing wife, Kendyll).
A little bit about my story – when I was 9, my mom bought me a little point-and-shoot film camera (you know, one of those cameras where the flash flips up and fires every time you take a photo) and I quickly fell in love with the ability to capture memories and freeze moments in time. Over a decade later, I'm now making a living with my cameras...but that love for capturing authentic moments with real people hasn't changed.
My desire isn't simply to document scenes from your life but rather to join you in the story you're telling – to truly get to know you on a deeper level so that we can craft your visual narrative in such a way that the content we create will stir up and showcase real emotions and leave you saying "oh my gosh, that's US!" That means I'm not about awkward posing or forced smiles because, let's be honest, nobody lives life that way. Rather, I'm about building deep relationships with you so I can create intentional, meaningful content that reflects your unique style and personality.
If you resonate with my style and are down to open your lives to me and my camera, give me a shout – let’s create an adventure together!

Every time I think about this film I flash back my little AirBnB just outside Joshua Tree National Park, where I sat with Alyssa and David as they shared their story with me. Getting to document their journey is an experience I'll never forget, and this film beautifully showcases their authentic, down-to-earth, madly-in-love personalities against the backdrop of a stunning national park.
