About Joseph

Based in Newport Beach, I specialize in luxury wedding photography for couples who appreciate the art of understatement — where elegance speaks quietly and every frame is composed with intention.

I’ve had the privilege of working at Southern California’s most distinguished venues, from the clifftop terraces of Pelican Hill to the Pacific-facing lawns of the Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel.

I accept a carefully limited number of weddings each year. If your date is available, I’d be honored to hear your story.
