South Carolina native, photographer, railroad aficionado, I am happy when there is a camera strapped around my neck and something interesting in my viewfinder. This is my work, and I am proud to share it with you. I like to shoot railroads and interesting buildings and skylines as well as people. I am a former award-winning TV News photographer with the most watched TV station in South Carolina who has also photographed (and wrote) for newspapers and magazines such as Trains and Railroad and Railfan. Message me any comments or questions you may have. I go by Joe.
