Being in front of the camera with Joy is truly a magical experience. She has a gift for creating a space where you feel both seen and celebrated. From the moment we began, she chose the perfect waterfall location—bathed in the most beautiful natural light—that aligned so effortlessly with our vision.

What sets Joy apart is her intuitive ability to bring out your truest self. With her gentle guidance and kind, affirming words, she captured not just how I looked, but how I felt. My inner beauty, light, and essence came through so naturally because she made me feel so safe and radiant in her presence.

I could feel the love and care in every frame. Joy doesn’t just take photos, she creates art that tells the story of your soul. I will cherish this experience, and the images forever.

Joy is difficult to capture in words. She’s got it, she has a passion and vision that comes through every aspect of her work. Her attention to detail, the way she got to know me and the work that I do so she could capture the essence of what I do, to the editing of the finished product… she was alive in the process and brought me out into my aliveness too. I have a bodywork practice and offer group work. I went for it and got a large package, a full branding session with 5 live models. The grace and the way she saw and captured what I needed to convey looked effortless. She’s an artist and takes pride in doing her very best and it shows. Joy has what comes from her lifelong devotion to her skills at branding and photography. She’s the best. And, You want the best.

I am so thrilled with the beautiful images that Joy produced for me and my business partner. She took the time to prepare us with what to expect, suggestions on what to wear as well as makeup tips for the camera. I can't believe the amazing shots she got in a very short time with her. She is a top notch professional with a fun and cheerful personality that anyone would love to work with.

It was so amazing getting to spend time in Joy's studio with Santa and my kids! She made the experience magical for my kids and the pictures she captured were just as magical. The Santa was absolutely amazing and my whole family truly enjoyed the experience!
