Joseph Forbush
My Story & Purpose
Professional Visualist Photographer
Real photography that inspires your story.
Hi, I’m Joseph Forbush. I’m 31, from the Metro Detroit area—born and raised in Romulus, Michigan. In 2020, I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Communications at Brigham Young University–Idaho. I got into photography in August 2022—just for fun at first, but it quickly became something more. I’ve always loved storytelling, so I worked at Walt Disney World and found myself drawn even more to capturing real moments and experiences.
As a professional visualist photographer, I focus on portraying scenes naturally while adding a creative flair that makes each photo feel real, personal, and full of story. That same approach—blending authenticity with creativity—stems from my deep passion for this craft and inspires every shoot I do.
“Life. Story. Inspire.” is more than a motto—it is the heartbeat of my work. Experience life through the stories we live. I believe real moments, honest connections, and authentic stories are what make life meaningful. My goal is to capture those moments in a way that inspires and honors who you are and what truly matters to you. Whether it’s a family milestone, a brand, or a place, I’m here to transform life’s stories into photos that feel genuine, lasting, and full of wonder.
I believe that photography is about cherishing each other’s stories—and helping others do the same through the lens we share together.
LIFE
Life is made up of everyday experiences that shape who we are, though it’s easy to overlook the moments that quietly define us.
STORY
Every moment we live adds to our story—a personal story that reflects the journey, the growth, and the meaningful connections we’ve made.
INSPIRE
Life stories have the power to inspire. By capturing them, we uncover meaning and motivation in the moments that shape who we are.
