“After a tough year of mask wearing and remote learning, our daughter Jamie was beginning her senior year of high school. What better place to capture her essence than a photo shoot at the shore. Joan is an amazing photographer. She’s professional and creative and had an instant rapport with our daughter. Her attention to detail and discerning eye made the session comfortable and stress free. Moms and teenagers don’t always agree - but in this case - both were thrilled with the results. We highly recommend Joan!”

“Joan Ford is an absolute gem! I am a professional musician who HATES to have her picture taken! I was in desperate need of new headshots and kept putting it off for years. Joan made the entire process seem effortless from start to finish. She walked me thru wardrobe, had the best hair and makeup stylist, and spent countless hours with me during and after the shoot making sure I had exactly what I needed for my professional rebranding. I couldn’t be more thrilled with the amazing photos from this session!”

“Joan Ford is the best! She’s been taking personal branding images of me for many years. Each time we work together, I’m reminded why I continue to choose Joan Ford Portraits. As an on-air guest for almost 20 years, I’m always in need of great images of myself and Joan always makes me feel so comfortable, it allows the real me to come thru in the images and isn’t that always what we want?! Love her!”

- Susan W.

“Our daughter never truly had a decent professional photo taken. Her high school and college graduation photos were unpurchasable. She deserved a beautiful, professional photo. Other than our wedding, we never hired a professional photographer. Joan got to know us, what we were looking for and what our concerns were. Her skill and experience immediately put our daughter as ease. She set up a variety of shots and poses and outfits that brought out our daughter's authentic self. Joan was patient, we never felt rushed. Joan's expertise with proper angles and lighting addressed the issues we had always had with other photos. Our experience was so comfortable. Our daughter has never had such a beautiful collection of photos.”

- Nicole W.

“Joan never ceases to amaze me with her incredible eye.  I love how she brings such passion and perfection to each image she makes.  She has photographed my kids individually and she was more than capable of handling their vast age difference and the difference in their personalities all while allowing their uniqueness to shine thru in her art.  She also photographed our extended family and blended all our craziness into one amazing photo.  Such a pleasure to work with Joan, every time.”
