Hi, I'm Joy
Welcome! Thanks for checking out my work! I'm a passionate photographer with 14 years of experience in photo and graphic design. Photography is more than just a profession for me—it’s a way to capture memories that matter with creativity and heart.
Inspired by my love for Jesus, my husband Jonny, and our four incredible kids, I believe in the power of storytelling through images. My goal is to create a laid-back, enjoyable experience where you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I want every session to be stress free and fun, so you can relax and be yourself while I capture authentic, timeless moments.
I'm dedicated to providing a warm, personalized experience where your story takes center stage. Based in Wildwood, Mo I specialize in seniors, families, headshots, family traditions, and events. I take pride in delivering images that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
Capture the memory. You won’t regret it.
Joy
Photography has taken me on incredible adventures—from hiking the glaciers of Montana, capturing families against breathtaking backdrops, to the windy beaches of Cape Cod, where the waves and sea breeze add their own touch to each moment. I’ve explored cityscapes, turning parking garages into creative, unexpected settings, and even climbed fences to get that perfect shot of a rider and their horse. No matter the location, I’m thrilled to go the extra mile—sometimes quite literally—to ensure each photo is just right.
But it’s not just about the places; it’s about the people. Whether it’s waiting patiently for that perfect, natural smile from a little one or adapting to whatever the day brings, I love making each session feel effortless and fun. My goal is to create an experience where you can relax, be yourself, and trust that your memories are in good hands.
