About Joe

I'M Joe Ladendorf

Hello! I'm so happy you stopped by to visit! I hope you enjoy the content you find here. My goal as a photographer is to make my audience say to themselves, "I wish I was there!" I love to talk about my art and photography in general, which makes me a great instructor for my beginning photography students. Don't hesitate to contact me for a one-on-one conversation about anything! For more information about me, my photography experience, etc., click HERE.

My art business has been designated as a "Trusted Art Seller" with The Art Storefronts Organization, which means you can shop with confidence, and know that I stand behind the quality and value of my products.

Inspiration

My inspiration came from my father, Edward J Ladendorf Sr. He was a part time wedding photographer. He gave me an SLR for Christmas when I was 18 years old. His idea was that I would help him shoot weddings. I quickly found out that weddings were not my thing. However I knew I loved taking photos, and I also loved the outdoors. That came from my father too. Never could two activities go together more perfectly.

Techniques

I am a digital photographer. I photograph with a very high resolution DSLR. This enables me to offer very large prints for sale. After the initial capture, I process my raw files using Adobe software products, namely Lightroom and Photoshop. I also use several third party apps occasionally for special situations. The final files are then printed, either by me, or my fulfillment vendor.

career highlights

I've won several awards and acknowledgements over the years. The most noteworthy was the 1st place $500 award I won in the B & H Photovideo national fall color contest in 2013. My photo, Prickett Lake Sunrise was the winning photo. It can be seen HERE.
