Joe is The Most versatile Photographer Alive
He may be the best teacher in the world as his lessons are actionable and his views are practical. It's not about buying the latest, greatest gear. It's about putting in the time and the work. I have read all of Joe's books, attended one of his seminars, and I cannot say enough good things about him.

A Great Storyteller & Very Funny Man
Until yesterday, I had only learned from Joe via studying his books and watching videos. But, in person, he really shines as an educator. He's very humble for all his accolades, a great storyteller and very funny man.
