Joe is the best! I absolutely had the best time and experience with Joe before, during and after the photoshoot! He suggest multiple locations ideas beforehand, and I sent him style images that I liked (which he executed beautifully)!!
My boyfriend and I wanted to do something special for our anniversary. We were not experienced models, but Joe made us absolutely so comfortable in front of the camera and being ourselves. We had so much fun and great conversations letting our personalities come out in the images. He made us look like supermodels! I will treasure these photos years and years from now.
We love him!! He is truly passionate about the work he does and it shines through. Will definitely hire Joe again for a next photoshoot!

Joe was super great to work with! My fiancé isn't a big picture guy and I have never taken professional pictures before so this was definitely going to be an interesting experience! Right off the bat Joe made us feel comfortable and confident. He walked us through everything, and was super flexible! At one point my fiancé realized there was someplace he wanted to take some photos and Joe was one board immediately! We could tell he was there for us and to help us get the experience we truly wanted!
Details: Candid • Traditional posed • Artful composition and lighting • Natural or environmental • Outdoors • One location • Online or digital proofs and prints • Album • My home, venue, etc.

I am speechless at how beautiful our engagement photos were! ❤️ Thank you Joe so much for capturing such beautiful moments. I highly recommend Joe, he was so personable, fun, and easy to work with. He traveled to the home we were renting in the mountains, he arrived early and had amazing energy, and despite the cold and snowing we had the best time during the photo shoot. He was extremely professional, so positive he made the whole experience so fun and easy. From first contact he was exceptional! If you are unsure, Hire, Hire Joe Stein Photography! Best decision we made! ❤️
Thank you Joe!
