Journeys Captured: Joe Hockey Photography Collection

Hello! 

I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself. I was born and raised in New Jersey, nestled between the Watchung mountains and the Jersey shore; Seaside Heights, Asbury Park, Barnegat Bay and Wildwood, to name a few. As a child, my days were filled with outdoor play, exploration, hiking, and biking. I quickly developed a love for the outdoors. There's nothing quite like the fresh air and the surrounding natural beauty. Experiencing the warmth of a new day as the sun ascends beyond the horizon is peaceful, quiet, and serene.

As a nature enthusiast, I will spend endless hours enjoying the unique beauty of Mother Nature, and trying to capture those moments in time.

Seize the chance to infuse your home with the serenity of nature, a beauty I hold dear and wish to share. My collection offers something for all. Experience the early morning radiance of sunrise and the lingering warmth of sunset. It's an homage to the birds, the bees, the flora, and the trees. Enchanting landscapes, majestic mountains, and breathtaking waterfalls await.

Some of my favorite subjects you will find on this site:

Lush Forests: The sunlight filtering through leaves (my favorite photos in this category), moss-covered rocks, and the vibrant hues of foliage create a magical environment. I love capturing the tranquility and mystery of forests. Upon closer inspection, you may notice one or two spider webs shimmering in the sunlight.

Mountains and Peaks: Standing at the base of a majestic mountain, i.e. Fort Hood, Oregon, or perched on a summit, The changing colors during sunrise and sunset, the reflection from a lake, make for breathtaking shots. 

Waterfalls: The raw power and graceful descent of waterfalls fascinate me. The challenge lies in freezing that motion while maintaining clarity and true beauty. 

Wildlife: Whether it’s an eagle in flight, a duck bathing, a bee pollinating, wildlife photography allows me to connect with the natural world on another level. 

Seascapes: The ocean’s vastness, crashing waves, and ever-changing tides evoke a sense of wonder. Several photos capture those moments. Coastal landscapes offer endless possibilities. Calm, clear waters offer wonderful shots of sealife below the surface. Some of my favorite photos are of the sea turtles in the Caribbean Sea. 

Macro Details: Zooming in on intricate patterns, or tiny insects reveals a hidden universe. Macro photography celebrates the small wonders. I plan on adding many more photos this summer. 

I'm delighted to share my nature photographs with you. I hope you find as much joy in them as I do.

Thank you for visiting.
