About Me
The Start
“Pathways” was one of the first projects I took on as an artist. This series of photographs encompassed the idea of opportunity, hope, and perseverance. To this day, I continuously realize areas traveled and set forth as new pathways with hidden journeys. Pathways are all around us, less do many realize.
As like life, this series started very linear in nature, but as time unveiled, I later experienced difficulties and forks in the road.
In reflection, I use this as an analogy: The end is yet to come.

Ever since picking up a camera in 2011, Josh has further strengthened his skills and knowledge to achieve extensive experience and reputation in the photography industry. Josh enjoys many different styles of photography, but highlights a passion in geometric abstraction.
Ever since starting photography, Josh notes and describes his eyes behind the camera as “inherently distracted” by various patterns, lines, shapes, and colors. However, through time and discovery of style, he realized how this ultimate distraction could be looked at a strength and a unique perception. Josh describes his photography as a mission to change the way people create surface level conclusions.
“Instead of looking at a photograph or artwork and knowing subjects at instant, I want my viewers to be thrown off at first, and spend some time to realize the original subject or thought. Nowadays, people are too quick to jump to conclusions. Let your mind explore the deeper details.”
My viewers should play a game with their minds: reject surface value and realize the unseen deeper visions.
