About Joseph - Chasing Copper Light

Hi—I’m Joe. I’m drawn to the quiet, honest moments that pass too quickly… and I love preserving them in photographs that feel real.

I grew up in a big family, and I learned early that the best parts of life happen in between the plans—laughing in the driveway, a hug that lasts a second longer, the way someone looks at you when nobody’s watching. I’ve traveled and chased experiences, but the moments I want to hold onto most are right here—with my wife, Morgan, and our kids. Photography is how I keep those moments from slipping away.

My sessions are relaxed and guided. No stiff posing. We’ll chase the best light—especially the copper glow that hugs Colorado mornings and evenings—and capture images that feel like you.

What Drives Me

  • Connection over poses – I’d rather catch a genuine laugh than perfect symmetry.

  • Story in every frame – Whether it’s a senior dreaming big or a family of six in organized chaos, each gallery should feel like you.

  • 72-hour promise – Memories are fresh; your images should be too.

Photography lets me bottle up the good stuff so it never slips away, and sharing that gift with others is what makes me happiest
