Joe is simply one of the best around.

Extraordinary work, Joe. I've seen most of these images before, but they're still striking every time. Thanks again for sharing so many of your thoughts and techniques!

[@EdwardKilner]

Well worth watching. So nice to see Joe again. Revived memories of the Bus Tour Buffalo stop.

A very inspiring presentation which I enjoyed immensely. Joe’s imagination and creativity have no bounds, coupled with decades’ worth of experiences. Awe inspiring!

Thanks for watching!

What an inspiration you are Joe! It seems so casual in rapid succession but each of these photos belies a masterful understanding of story telling and the craft of photography. As a beginner to intermediate photographer, it can be easy to get so caught up in learning the technicals that we can forget that the technicals are a means to the end and not the end itself.

Totally enjoyed another session with Joe! I’m sure Joe’s going to say the harder he works the luckier he gets. But there’s no luck since he does so much prep beforehand and yup; experience is a great teacher too. Thanks again Joe and rest of the team for a fabulous show of portrait work.

GREAT PORTRAIT TIPS! Thanks for taking us back to basics.....I'm a Nikon D750 photojournalist guy with a 24-70mm and a 55mm macro manual lens for portrait work..

Z9 is a very good camera but it would be awesome with better image stabilization, more megapixels, less noise, and higher dynamic range. It is surprising that Joe is not sponsored by Broncolor.
