JOSEPH MILLER<br />

John Maus<br />

Not so long ago, Joseph decided he needed<br />

a new challenge in life as he was not enjoying<br />

the day to day job he had. After consulting<br />

with friends and family that told<br />

him to do something he enjoyed and just<br />

go for it, he went out to do something.<br />

That something… photography.<br />

​Joseph has always been creative and determined.<br />

He set out the next day to find<br />

a photographer to assist and learn from.<br />

After working alongside several photographers<br />

and spending many hours a day,<br />

studying photography online and learning<br />

new techniques, his creativity exploded<br />

into life shooting concerts and gigs.<br />

His hobby became more serious. Joseph<br />

has become a music photographer, covering<br />

major European festivals, concerts<br />

and events, but is also an active portrait,<br />

landscape and event photographer with work<br />

ranging from hotel images for Booking.com<br />

to snowboarding images for Nidecker.<br />

Originally from the UK, but living in<br />

Malmo (Sweden), Joseph now works as<br />

an in house photographer for one of the<br />

largest music venues in Denmark, Vega<br />

Copenhagen (his work can be seen at<br />

www.vega.dk/galleries) and contributor<br />

of images to various photo agencies and<br />

editorials around Europe and the US.<br />

Joseph has been a strong campaigner of<br />

all aspects of sustainability, including social<br />

responsibility. This year, Joseph has taken<br />

upon himself the challenge to raise<br />

further awareness of the issues that face<br />

us and will be working with several regional<br />

and national editorials at festivals within<br />

Nordic regions and beyond, to further this<br />

understanding to a wider audience.<br />

​His portfolio of work continues to grow<br />

and there have been some crazy and<br />

unexpected stories along the way that have<br />

helped shape his career path and given<br />

him some of the best experiences of his life.<br />

His passion for music pushes him on to be<br />

a better photographer every day and aims<br />

to be the best in his field one day.<br />

Joseph says, “It’s not about being better than<br />

everyone else, it’s about enjoying photography<br />

and inspiring other people through<br />

your own pictures to hopefully make them<br />

want to go out and try it for themselves.”<br />

Who knows how far you can go…<br />
