My name is Joel
I've been involved with writing and producing scripts and short films for a number of years now. I've worked in jobs ranging from berry picking to nursing. I have an incredible loving and supporting partner who encourages me to do crazy stuff like this. And, I am a very proud dad of three wild little hooligans who are going to give me grey hair very soon here.
Having grown up in BC, I have always enjoyed photography. Though, I soon found landscape photography too boring for my liking, and eventually found my passion was in boudoir photography and cinematic-style art projects. Partially in the portrayal of raw emotion and personality, not hiding behind how we portray ourselves but embracing who we are, as we are. And also in seeing how impactful it can be to see ourselves in this light, empowered past the insecurities and shame that most of us grew up with.
LGBTQ2S+ friendly, inclusive and body positive. I want to work with you to create a safe, positive and fun environment to create together.
Having been on both sides of the camera, I want to help you be comfortable, confident, and unashamed of who you are. Quirky, glamorous, or artsy and wild. Together we can create a snapshot of yourself, for yourself.
Below are some very kind words from clients I have had the pleasure of working with.

I have worked with this photographer many times, and they are one of the best. They are a very comfortable person to be around, no matter what state of undress I was in. They worked with me to figure out exactly what I wanted my photo shoot to look like and stuck to it as much as possible. I will definitely be going to them again.

Joel is excellent to work with and very respectful. I felt completely comfortable and it is nice he will travel to your location. The photos turned out beautifully and I can’t wait to use him again for future boudoir photos. My partner loved them and I have never felt so confident! 5/5 stars from me.
