I love photography. It gets me out of the house, I meet new people and the craft itself, it has fundamentally changed the way I see things.

My interests are shooting models, cemeteries, abandoned locations, and people - not necessarily in that order. If you like my stuff, I would love to hear from you. If you are a critic, I would love to hear from you. No one is ever too good or too old to learn new things.

"Joel is a friend from high school, and I'm so happy to have found him again. He is a talented, kind person and a proud father. I look forward to shooting with him.

Joel's photography never fails to inspire me. It is obvious he puts his heart into his work. He is amazingly creative, has a great eye, and is unique. Go check out Joel's stream, and bookmark it. This is someone you will want to follow."

"Joel is not only a great photographer... he is also an amazing friend. Joel and I met through mutual friends a few years ago. Ever since discovering that Joel shared similar interests in photography we have been out shooting on a weekly basis and I'm always excited to find out where we are going to shoot next.

Joel's photography extends beyond the visual elements... each photo carries an emotional element and tells a story of its own. Joel's photography is honest and authentic. Photography is only one of many talents Joel possesses.

Joel is also an accomplished award winning writer. Joel has an incredible ability to capture depth in both his written works and photography. I have found that Joel is not afraid to step out of the box and I am drawn toward that quality about him. His passion and creativity is magnetic and unstoppable.

Joel is a great guy with a big heart and is a Rock Star Photographer!"

"Joel does some excellent work. I find myself especially attracted to his almost urban decay shots. They really show the character of the environment of which he is photographing. Closely following that are the cemetery shots he gets which, as with the urban decay shots, really thrust the emotion of the image out into the viewer. Definitely someone to add and keep checking back on!"

"JLK1979 is a photographer whose abilities I greatly admire. I think he has a keen eye for a good subject and captures it remarkably well. Allow me to express it this way; Did you ever view a photograph and say to yourself, "I wish I could take a picture like that?" I've said that many times looking at JLK's works."
