My fiance and I recently had an engagement photo shoot with Joseph and it was amazing! Prior to the photo shoot we met for coffee and got to know each other. I found out he's from my hometown (a place no one knows exists). We had more fun than we expected we would and photos came out better than expected too...mainly because we had never had our photos professionally taken before and thought it wouldn't look natural. We were wrong! Joseph and his assistant made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process so the photos turned out great. Joseph was very responsive leading up to the day of the photo shoot and executed our vision for our photos very well. We initially had some ideas for fall foliage, but it's hard to find that in CA so we opted for a beach shoot and an ice cream shoot in downtown Laguna instead. It was a great decision! Joseph was very flexible and in terms of the day of, we spent a total of nearly 3 hours taking photos even though initially we had planned for two. Joseph is creative, artistic, friendly, and overall a quality photographer! No complaints, only compliments. Thank you, Joseph for spending time with us and taking photos to capture our love for each other in very natural ways. We highly recommended him for any occasion! :) read more

Joseph Barber Photography - One of our fave photos from the engagement session! :) - Real Estate Photography Near Me

Joseph has a great eye for color and composition. He and his assistant were really good with our less than cooperative toddler. His and positive attitude and overall stoke for life made our family shoot a pleasant experience. My wife and I are very happy with the shots and will hire Joseph again in the future. read more

Amazing to work with! He got all the fitness shots I wanted and knew how to work with the weather as well! I'm definitely going to go to him again soon for another because he made me feel so confident! Also, soon after I posted my photos, I got a lot more followers on IG and made my business look more professional. read more

Too legit to quit. (check the pics I shared to prove it!) I've used this kid to "shoot up" several events for me. My wedding, family photos, even some pictures used for business purposes. I've used several other local, renowned and incredibly talented, photographers in the recent years, each for events they specialized in. Joseph is my golden chameleon. He's consistently able to capture my vision, regardless of the setting AND how last minute I request his services with the little direction I provide pre-shoot. I'm beyond impressed by his creative direction and wide ranging photographic knowledge and abilities. Every time I am in touch to book a new job, it seems he's just returned from another fairytale trip to a different corner of the Earth where he spent his time fine-tuning a new photography technique. Wish this kid was an app, so I could take his skills everywhere. Oh, and he has even been so generous as to make himself available to answer any questions I have regarding operating my camera and how to use different techniques to capture my extravagant visions. I have an enormous amount of respect for this "OC Artist". read more

So talented and so genuine love working with him and love his shop in creative and open minded perspective

Joseph's work is absolutely stunning! He has a keen eye for capturing beautiful moments. Very flexible to work with us as well as the weather. We had booked a time about a month in advance, expecting nothing but sun, but ended up with rain that week! Had no problem switching days to a beautiful sunny one following. I don't usually like being in front of a camera, but Joseph was able to make it so easy to pose and relax. If you are still considering whether to book a time with him, just do it! You will not be disappointed! read more

THEE best photographer I have worked with. I run a global social media marketing team & I'm now started to plug in my top marketers to Joseph so they have the best branding and photography on their social media accounts. I have worked with dozens of photographers & Joseph is #1. Thank me later read more

Joseph is a truly amazing photographer! His eye for detail and creative flair produced amazing images that showcased the essence of who I am as a Personal Trainer. After my first photoshoot with him, I was excited to see the final product, and was pleasantly surprised at how quickly he was able to edit and deliver the photos to me. These photos have created wonderful content for my website, and have boosted my social media presence. Joseph was a true professional, and directed my photo shoot in a way that was fun and comfortable. We recently went out and shot promotional footage for my business as well, and I was equally impressed with the video footage that he produced as I was with the photos he shot. He was able to take my vision and turn it into something absolutely amazing. Joseph is a wonderful artist and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone! read more

We recently had a family photo session with Joseph and we're absolutely thrilled with how our photos came out! Not only that, we were really impressed by the whole experience that Joseph and his assistant Mariah gave us. They put us at ease from the beginning and were very warm and easygoing. Our toddler was cranky and tired when we arrived at the shoot, but Joseph distracted and entertained him at the right moments and captured some beautiful shots. Joseph's style is bold and unique, and he has a keen eye for lighting and posing. His photos perfectly captured the personality and essence of each member of our family. We couldn't be more pleased! We will definitely treasure our photos forever. read more

Joseph does some of the best work I've ever seen. His professionalism is premier and his quality is outstanding. He's definitely the best I've seen in SoCal. Personally, he's also a great guy. read more

Joseph's a great photographer that I've done several projects with. He really does a good job of making me and others feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is SO important to get photos that look natural. Many photographers can't do that. And I appreciate that he takes my suggestions whenever I have them. Regarding his photography specifically - Joseph is skillful in his technique and great at capturing movement. We ALWAYS come out with stunning shots! Low light or day time - it doesn't matter. Also, he has a unique style that I don't see with other photographers. You won't get boring photos. All in all, Joseph's really talented and easy to work with. He's pretty quick with getting the photos back, too. Absolutely fabulous eye and always love the photos! read more

Joseph is amazing!! I absolutely love shooting with him. He creates such a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere while shooting, making it easy for me to be myself.

Joseph Barber Photography - Real Estate Photography Near Me

I met Joseph Barber about 9 years ago, we went to school together. He is very professional and when it comes to photography he is the best! We hired him to be the photographer for our Glow in the Dark event at Art Flying Aerial Studio. The pictures came out great and everyone loved his job. He came to the rehearsal night, which is the day before to event, to test his camera and lenses to make sure the angles were right and just to get a feel of the event. He showed up 2hrs before the actual event and his shots were amazing! He was also very fast to get the pictures sent to us in less than a week. He is amazing and we would definitely recommend his services as a photographer. read more

Joseph Barber is so approachable and down to earth. I highly recommend his work. I wanted to share a story that attests to Joseph's exceptional photography and kind heart - My wife and I have a couple friends and family members who are professional photographers. However when it came to our wedding, we wanted these ones to enjoy the time and not have to be "on the job." So, we hired another photographer we didn't know. All the same, Joseph, without our asking, came and captured many wonderful shots from our wedding (shots which the photographer we hired didn't catch). Furthermore, he shot the most memorable photo of the day because of his great eye and keen awareness of where to be in a split second. Sure, Joseph's a friend of mine, but it doesn't change the fact that because of his quick reflexes and excellent judgment he caught the best photo on our wedding day. read more

Do you ever come across a photo and wonder how the heck someone was able to capture such beauty and light through a lens? Working with Joseph, I'm amazed at how his photos do a sunset justice. He chose a beautiful location to shoot my portrait and was super easy to work with. Keen, artistic, creative, knowledgeable, and most importantly... a professional. I'm super stoked on his work and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a professional photographer. read more

Joseph was a thrill to work with and made the shoot light, easy, and professional. I hadn't modeled in 10 years and he helped me be comfortable and carefree.

My wife and I recently had Joseph as our wedding photographer and were extremely pleased with the service that he and Jaspery provided. I was especially impressed with the way Joseph involved us in the process from the beginning, opening the way for us to communicate our thoughts and preferences. He made sure to honor the requests we had. The day of the wedding, both he and Jaspery made us feel at ease and adapted well to all the little unexpected things that cropped up. It was definitely great having both of them, as one would often focus on the event itself while the other would take candid pictures. We were all smiles once we got the pictures. We really enjoy Joseph's style of photography and especially like the candid pictures he takes. We definitely plan to recommend Joseph to friends and family in the future. Fantastic service! read more

Wonderful wonderful experience. Great photos made us so comfortable. Would highly recommend. Hire him worth every penny

I was looking for someone to teach me a few photography tricks and I came across 2-3 names on YELP. I called then and Joseph returned my call the very same day. He was absolutely wonderful in teaching me few photography tricks. More importantly, he was very keen in sharing his own learning, skills and techniques. We liked his knowledge and professionalism so much that we knew he would be taking our family pictures this year!!! He was absolutely wonderful to work with ... very calm, very patient, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Joseph also helped me set up our family photo gallery at home, for which he had some great suggestions starting from frame type/colour to matt style to glass quality etc...yes, he is very detailed! I would highly recommend Joseph to anyone wanting to get some great photo shots. We liked his creativity, professionalism, communication and pricing so much that we know he will be taking our next round of pictures soon !!! read more

Yet again Joseph has BLOWN us away with his talent. We first met Joseph when he took our engagement/family photos and instantly we clicked. He is the most kind, down to earth, laid back, professional, and overall talented photographer we have ever met. Joseph has become apart of our family, and that's what we love most. It's rare you find a photographer who is not only amazing at what they do, but becomes a genuine part of your family. Any future photos we need we will 100000% be coming to get them done by him. Joseph, we appreciate all you do for our family and absolutely love our second round of family photos. For those who are unsure whether to hire him or not, JUST DO IT.

Joe took our wedding pictures, and we could not be happier with how they turned out! Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the most important parts of the planning process, and we felt very comfortable after talking to him. He met with us beforehand and we went over our preferences. He has the ability to photograph using different styles, and he really listened to us and our story. He brought an assistant photographer, making sure to capture not just the big wedding moments, but also our guests and little details that we're very glad to have in pictures. We definitely wanted great shots but didn't want it to feel staged or fake. Both he and his assistant made us feel at ease and comfortable; it all felt very natural. His pricing was super reasonable, we received the pictures sooner than we thought, and they were beyond amazing! Every one who sees them loves them, we definitely recommend him! read more

We booked Joseph for a full day of fashion photography to create more editorial content on our website and social media.

Definitely will do more work with him in future and give him an outstanding recommendation. read more

Joseph is really talented, his works speaks for itself! He knows his angles, is always open to suggestions and is great at talking through ideas. When it comes to making his client happy he knocks it out of the park! I have never had someone be so patient and organized :) He crafted a custom idea board for me and had a lot of great inspiration that we used. He takes his time and is incredibly charming and easy going throughout a shoot. In LA it's hard to find someone that is affordable AND good... He is! read more

Where do I begin? What a nightmare working with this guy was. He was late to our appointment. He was rude during our family photo shoot. He tried to double charge me and I had to go to my bank to cancel one of them. To add to the terrible experience all of the pictures came out looking awful. Every photo was blurry. The lighting was off in every picture as well. He even sent me one with his thumb in the picture. Everything about Joseph was a joke. He gets a 0 for talent. A 0 for professionalism. He just seemed to be a lousy guy all around. He rushed through the shoot and was not open to any suggestions. I found out after the fact but this guy even made an inappropriate comment to my teenage daughter. If you are considering this guy run fast the other way as quickly as possible. You can find better photographers at the local elementary school. Surprised the guy didn't show up with a Fisher Price camera. He must be writing all of the yelp reviews on his own because this guy seemed to have zero experience. I would not recommend this guy to my worst enemy. The only reason I gave him 1 star was because it would not let me give him zero. read more

Joe was my photographer for my college graduation pictures. He is excellent at his craft and I wouldn't go to anyone else for professional pictures. He had many ideas for the setting and helped direct poses. I was a little camera shy at first since it was my first time getting my picture taken, but Joe instantly put me at ease and made the experience fun and exciting. He went above and beyond by spending extra time making sure we got the right lighting, angles, and that the shot turned out perfect. I was thrilled with the result of my pictures. My family and friends loved them and will now have them to remember my commencement. Thanks again Joe! read more

What can I say..... one of the most important events in my son's life and he asked me to help him. Proposing to his love and it is to be a total surprise! We discussed places, times, what he thought would make it extra special ... all pretty easy BUT to make it a total surprise in a public place at the beach on a Friday???!!! I was given Joseph's number by a young lady that was an employee of mine and not too long ago got engaged. I was so impressed with her engagement photos ... beautiful -sweet - special moments caught by a talented eye. I knew who I wanted to be a part of this "team". I called Joseph and explained the rather "covert" operation and he was happy to be a part! He planned the time to the perfect sunset and beach time. Mind you this had him hiding and then following them incognito to Brown's Park in Laguna. He captured each and every moment perfectly... and the photo's turned out stunning... the proposal was a total surprise and each and every moment captured in perfection... Thank you Joseph for making this day one to remember by all read more

He does amazing work. Professional and courteous, Joseph does phenomal work.
