I have been taking photos for 34 years. I bought my first camera when I was stationed with the Navy in Japan, in 1973. I have always loved to take photographs. Ten years ago I started my own studio. My first love is that people have nice pictures of important events that occur in their lives. A lot of my work (weddings, events, portraits, senior pictures, etc…) are done at cost or for no charge or what they can afford. My philosophy has always been this, “Money is no object in getting quality photographs of your event”. I have expanded my definition of portraits to include, any picture of an individual. Candid, non-posed pictures often define who that person is (particularly children). I enjoy the taking and the giving of photographs. It is something, at which I am gifted and I have chosen to share that gift with others. Please enjoy these few photographs. I have many more photographs in 12 categories at: throughjoeyseyes.smugmug.com.
