J Stokka Design

My name is Josh, I have been in the multimedia industry since 2004 specializing in Photography, Video Production, Graphic Design, and Audio Production. I started working in the wedding industry in 2006 and really became passionate about working with couples and meeting great people. The draw that the wedding industry has for me is the incredible amount of emotions that take place on a wedding day and the fact that I can capture and freeze those emotions forever in time is something that I take very seriously. My other passion is nature, I love to camp, hike, and explore new things and places. Landscape photography is the silent partner in my work, it really is my big creative outlet and it has taken me to some great sights so far. The colors and drama that our planet holds is very incredible! I incorporate this passion for nature into all other types of photography, I always like to shoot outdoors and incorporate nature elements into my photos. I am a jack of all trades and would be happy to help you in any way I can so don't hesitate to give me a call or shoot me an email. ~ Josh Wedding Photography: The big day has finally come, your stomach is in knots! You're wondering if everything is in place, if all the place settings have been put together correctly, if there is enough places to sit, if the photos will turn out ok. With me, take the last item off your list! It is my personal pleasure to take the busiest, most emotionally intense, sometimes chaotic day of your life and capture every moment in such great detail that you can revisit the experience forever. With a steady hand, a sharp eye, hard work, and good communication, I will tell the story of your wedding day the way it was meant to be told. I am committed to my craft, I know my equipment, I've made smart investments with my equipment, and I always keep up on the latest styles and trends, so you don't end up with the same poses as everybody else. Please take a look at my portfolio page, then give me a call, text, or send an email and lets start a conversation about working together on your wedding day!
