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 />
