"MJ" Michael Joseph
Michael Joseph has traveled throughout the eastern US, photographing people and their pets over 35 years and more than 35,000 portrait settings later, almost every breed of dog and cat have had their chance in front of MJ's camera. One of the key elements to MJ’s craft is his ability to photograph people with their pets. His creations reflect the relationship and importance these animals have in our lives.
Although photographing families & their pets remains a top priority, MJ photographs a great deal of non-pet related assignments as well… whether it be head shots, weddings and families. And for the past 22 years, you may have seen MJ working with Canon, USA, at various trade shows and conventions as they work with photographers and give advice on camera functions and features. Whether assisting, instructing or photographing at events, his ability to breakdown useful information is invaluable.
