    MUSICIANS! Are you in need of more gigs?  RELAX! Let Photo Joe Photography and Video help advertise and promote your Image whether a Soloist, Duet, Band or Orchestra.

    SINCE 1990 I have been taking pictures for all types of music from Alternative, Country, Blues, Rock, Jazz, etc.  Mostly for local and some national artists and groups.  Musicians tell me that they can not afford to pay the high cost of a professional photographer, so they would rather use a family member or friend and accept less quality. When magazine, press and event photographers shoot an event, they usually are allowed only three songs or have deadlines to meet or another event and leave early. These pictures they use in magazines and newspapers are not given to the artist.

    When in need of P.R. for posters, artist pictures, CD covers / jacket inserts, T- Shirts or other pictorial merchandise most musicians have no choice but to hire a photographer for at least $200.00 to shoot , plus cost of art work, development and enlargements. This eliminates a lot of the profit.

    My Goal in photography and video has always been to care, help, show, and gain trust in what I’m trying to accomplish with my artistry and gift.  Public Relations is a major need and investment of all musicians for survival and growth.  I want to offer a way that local talent, whether old or new can get more recognition and exposure.

    Everyone likes to look at photos; so show and inform them with flyers, posters, (8x10) P.R. photos, T– shirts, hats, ect.  Photo Joe’s website: photojoe.org will link fans, nightclubs and promoters to see your website.

    I’m known for being Unique in my style whether action, candid, posed or spontaneous. As I look through the eye piece I don't just see the main subject and/or object I include the background, middle and foreground to express what is happening and to include all members before I take the photo. This enables me to Capture the expressions, live playing and memory of the moment.
